LATEST PG SHOWCASE REPORT
2016 World Showcase
Erickie Godfrey is a 2016 1B/RHP with a 6-1 205 lb. frame from Atlanta, GA who attends KIPP Atlanta Collegiate HS. Strong athletic build, has strength throughout. Right handed hitter, open stance with a late close, busy hand load impacts timing consistency, swings hard and will pull his head and upper half off the ball at times, power approach and power/raw bat speed are there when squared up, can tone down his swing a bit for more contact as his natural strength will still impact the ball hard. 7.18 runner, primary first baseman and that is his best position defensively. Also pitched, big side step delivery with a high leg raise, quick compact arm circle, rotational release out front, tight 3/4's arm slot. Fastball topped out at 78 mph, gets good cutting action at times. Good curveball he throws for strikes with some sweeping depth to it. Good student.
