LATEST PG SHOWCASE REPORT
2020 Southeast Prospect Showcase
Colby Shumate is a 2022 RHP/MIF with a 5-10 140 lb. frame from McDonough, GA who attends Union Grove. Medium and slender frame with plenty of room to fill. Ran a 7.20 second 60 yard dash. Primary right-handed pitcher, stretch only delivery that starts with a belt high leg lift, drops and drives to the plate, takes his arm back to a full arm action up to a low 3/4 arm slot, gets extended at release, tunnels both of his pitches well, could get more drive from the lower half down the mound to improve arm speed. Fastball topped out at 75 mph with natural life to armside, mixes in a developing curveball in the low- to mid-60s. Secondary middle infielder, showed a gather out in front with good movements laterally, will slow momentum into release, topped out at 76 mph across with an accurate arm. Listed switch hitter who only took reps from the right side, spread out and open stance, level swing plane and can get the bat head out in front, slightly lifted path with a feel for the barrel, will improve at the plate with strength. Good student.
