LATEST PG SHOWCASE REPORT
2018 Sunshine Southeast Showcase
Joe Saia is a 2019 C/1B, 3B with a 6-0 195 lb. frame from Birmingham, AL who attends Mountain Brook HS. Recorded a 7.03 second 60-yard dash time. Large frame with some strength and broad shoulders to project some more physicality onto. Primary catcher with arm strength recorded up to 77 mph. Quickness and looseness to the arm stroke and gets it out of the hand quickly. Gains ground well and the arm strength plays well at any position on the diamond. Righthanded hitter with a patient approach and hands work well into the swing. Even stance with an upper half dominant swing. Has some hand speed with a level swing plane. Good plate coverage during in-game at-bats with the ability to spoil tough pitches and wait for a pitch to handle over the middle of the plate. Good student.
