LATEST PG SHOWCASE REPORT
2005 World Showcase
Kent Matthes is a 2005 3B/OF/RHP from Orlando, Florida, with a very strong and athletic build at 6'3", 205 lbs. Matthes showed his great arm strength during the workout throwing 94 mph with carry and accuracy. He has easy actions in the outfield, and has the speed and arm strength to play any outfield position. Matthes also showed his 90 mph arm strength in the infield with good range and solid 3B actions. The ball jumped off his bat during batting practice with very good bat speed and big time projectable power. He hits line drives with solid carry, and he still has room to get even stronger and better. With his combination of arm, raw power, speed, and athleticism, Matthes has the potential to be a high draft this June. It will all depend on how well he hits good live pitching. His body and tools are first round material. Kent is a good student.
