LATEST PG SHOWCASE REPORT
2025 PG South High School All-State Games (Invite Only)
Roper Wood is a 2028 C/RHP/UT with a 6-1 165 lb. frame from Livingston, TX who attends Livingston. Lean high waisted young build with plenty of physical projection remaining. Right handed hitter, sets up in a medium straight stance with a hanging knee lift trigger, gets to his front side early, slashing swing with middle of the field line drive contact, has some projection at the plate. 7.14 runner in the sixty. Primary catcher on defense, sets up in a high straight stance, pretty quick out of his crouch and replaces his feet well, longer arm action that can be shortened, around the bag with his throws. Also worked out in the infield and outfield with young and developing actions. Took a turn on the mound, worked from a full wind up with a straight leg raise start, loose 3/4/s arm slot, can block on his front side at times and not get over his lead leg. Fastball was in the mid-70's and topped out at 78 mph early, threw his fastball for strikes and had some idea on how to locate it. Tended to drop and lead with his elbow on a short breaking ball. Excellent student.
