LATEST PG SHOWCASE REPORT
2018 PG Top Prospect Games at Texas A&M
William Burbank is a 2020 SS/2B, RHP with a 6-0 175 lb. frame from Beaumont, TX who attends Monsignor Kelly. Medium, athletic frame with square shoulders and present strength to frame, additional room to fill throughout. Primary shortstop, moves well to the ball and fields out front with a wide base, works to an over-the-top release and gets on top of throws, shorter arm stroke through the back with accuracy across, shows athleticism to actions, can continue to refine footwork moving forward. Also pitched, side step moving into a leg lift up past belt; gets tall on backside before coming down the mound. Full arm action and remains on line working to a high three-quarters release. Fastball topped out at 83 mph, mostly true in life but generates plane and filled the zone; curveball shows 12-6 shape with short depth down in the zone and landed for strikes. Righthanded hitter, begins with a narrow and open stance with a high hand set and back elbow at the plate; utilizes a leg lift trigger for timing at the plate. Incorporates strength in hands well into swing, can continue to implement additional weight shift through. Showed best when generating lift to swing path, back spin coming off when squared and shows jump off the barrel; has tools to continue to build on offensively. Very good student.
