LATEST PG SHOWCASE REPORT
2005 Sunshine West Showcase
Lance McCormick is a 2006 RHP/1B from Madison HS in San Diego, CA, with a 5'10", 180 lb. frame. McCormick is a strong bodied right handed pitcher with very good control. He hit his spots and worked both sides of the plate, and showed good pitchability for a young pitcher. His fastball topped out at 84 mph with good late life from a 3/4 arm slot. McCormick's arm is loose with a fluid delivery, and he has good arm speed with all of his pitches with little effort. He also mixed in a 71 mph splitter with good sink, and a 71 mph slider with good late break and sharpness. With McCormick's pinpoint control and present arm strength, he should do well at the next level. At the plate he is a right handed hitter with good bat speed from a closed stance. He stands away from the plate and steps into the pitch which sometimes gets him off balance, but he is short to contact with good hands. McCormick is also a very good student.
