LATEST PG SHOWCASE REPORT
2007 World Showcase
Yoandy Barroso is a 2007 OF with a 6'2'', 190 lb. frame from Miami FL, who attends Miami Springs HS. He has a very good athletic frame and looks stronger than the last time we saw him. He is a prototypical right fielder on defense, with excellent raw arm strength with a long and flowing release. Barrosa is a 7.03 runner who shows good game range in the outfield and can probably slide over to centerfield at the next level as well. Offensively, Barroso hits out of a spread stance and has very good leverage and balance in his swing. He stays quiet with his body but is able to aggressively explode his hands through the ball. Barroso showed easy power and the ball exploded off his bat at 94-95 mph a couple of times. He also did a nice job staying back on some curveballs and hitting through them well. This may have been the best we've seen Barroso with the bat. He has all the tools to be a very high ceiling talent when the skills start to catch up with him. Barosso has signed with South Florida but is the type of prospect the pro scouts will make sure to evaluate this spring.
