LATEST PG SHOWCASE REPORT
2017 Northwest Showcase
Blake Leaverton is a 2021 RHP/1B with a 5-7 162 lb. frame from Yakima, WA who attends West Valley HS. Medium young build. Works from the stretch with a long and loose arm action, consistent with his mechanics and keeps it simple, 3/4's arm slot. Upper 60's fastball, topped out at 70 mph, gets nice cutting action on his fastball at times. Confident in his curveball, gets good depth at times and throws it for strikes when getting out front with it, will cast it at times. Shortened up on his curveball for a slider shape at 63 mph later in his outing and this was an effective pitch. Good student.
