LATEST PG SHOWCASE REPORT
2019 Central Prospect Showcase
Grant Rhodes is a 2021 OF/IF with a 6-2 160 lb. frame from Parkville, MO who attends Park Hill South. Slender young athletic build, very projectable physically. Left handed hitter, hits from a spread stance with a smooth and easy back to front shift into contact, is very well timed up in his trigger and swing, loose and tension free swing with present bat speed and some lift out front, ball comes off the barrel harder than one would expect from his frame. Is a natural hitter with the ability to really keep improving if he can get stronger physically. 7.16 runner, speed plays well in the outfield and he shows range, footwork through the ball is still young and developing, arm works well and projects to continue to improve. If he's 180 pounds a year from now the ball will be flying. Good student. Named to the Central Prospect Showcase Top Prospect Team.
