LATEST PG SHOWCASE REPORT
2021 Northeast Indoor Showcase (Sunday)  
Ryan Merola is a 2022 RHP/2B with a 6-0 145 lb. frame from Forest Hills, NY who attends Archbishop Molloy. Recorded a 5.42 second forty-yard dash. Primary right handed pitcher moves with a full windup and a short sidestep into a belt high leg lift using multiple leg lifts to mess with timing. He has a good lateral movement to the plate and a high three-quarter arm slot with a fastball that has cutting action as he keeps the ball down in the zone topping 73 mph. Merola mixed in 11 -5 breaking ball as he is developing its release point. He is mechanically sound as he is gaining strength. Also taking ground balls in the infield with a recorded 71 mph across the diamond. The left handed hitter steps into the box with a wide and closed off stance, high hands, and a high back elbow. Merola has a short leg kick stride and throws his hands at the ball working the ball middle to opposite field approach as he is developing backspin on the ball. Good student.
