LATEST PG SHOWCASE REPORT
2016 Sunshine West Showcase
Zachary Bridger is a 2017 C/RHP/OF with a 6-1 185 lb. frame from San Diego, CA who attends Maranatha Christian Academy. Bridger has a large frame with some present strength. He showed good catch and throw tools behind the plate with some quickness to his transfers and release. Bridger stays low on his pop throws and showed some arm strength up to 76 MPH with accuracy on the bag. He showed good receiving skills in the games portion of the showcase as well. At the plate Bridger starts with an open stance and uses a leg lift trigger to start his swing. He has a high back elbow and gets closed late in his set up. He has a rotational swing and used a middle of the field approach. Bridger will need to make some adjustments to his approach to utilize his strength in his swing. He pitches from a 3/4 arm slot with a short arm action. The ball comes out of his hand clean and he has good arm speed. He has deep coil at balance point and pitches with some effort. Bridger could really improve with a few adjustments to his delivery. Very good student.
