2025 PG Lone Star Showcase
Heaton Hughes is a 2027 RHP/1B/3B with a 6-1 190 lb. frame from El Paso, TX who attends Coronado. Taller athletic build with some present strength and more to come. Works from the stretch with a quick high leg raise start and an inline move down the mound, compact arm action from a 3/4's arm slot, gets a bit cross body out front at release at times. Fastball was mostly in the upper 70's and topped out at 81 mph, mostly straight and thrown for strikes. Threw a short slider in the low 70's with some two-plane tilt as his secondary pitch. 7.14 runner in the sixty. Secondary third baseman on defense, is light on his feet and moves well to the ball, good idea on his footwork, fields the ball cleanly and makes accurate soft throws, makes the routine play cleanly. Right handed hitter, sets up in an upright stance with a low hand load/hitch, uphill swing plane and is looking to lift the ball, flashed some impact off the barrel when he was on time, fairly compact and short to the ball. Very good student.
