LATEST PG SHOWCASE REPORT
2015 West Coast Top Prospect Showcase
Eddie Cervantes is a 2016 C/2B with a 5-8 165 lb. frame from Long Beach, CA who attends Millikan HS. Young, athletic frame with a lean and projectable build, plenty of room to fill out with additional strength moving forward. Primary catcher, shows sound mechanics behind the plate, utilizes lower half well to gain ground into throws, short arm action and gets on top of throws, accurate to the bag and works over front side. Arm strength will continue to develop with added strength. Right-handed hitter, starts with a narrow stance and a slight crouch with a high hand set away from body. Long swing with a line drive swing plane, generates some extension out front and shows an all fields approach with ability to execute. Hands and barrel direct to ball with line drive contact, occasionally gets to front side early, has a feel for the barrel and has the tool set that projects moving forward. Very good student.
