LATEST PG SHOWCASE REPORT
2005 Ohio Valley Top Prospect
Nick Mlachnik is a 2006 LHP/OF from Catholic Memorial HS in Waukesha, WI, with a 6'1'', 180 lb. frame and some present strength. He throws from a low effort delivery with a high leg kick and hip turn. Mlachnik has a long, easy arm action and very good extension out front. His fastball topped out at 82 mph with good southpaw's running action. His curveball was 69 mph with down downer action and his change up had good deception at 72 mph along with some movement. Mlachnik did a good job of working down in the strike zone with all threw pitches and knew what he was doing on the mound. We didn't get a good feel for his pickoff move but we're told he has one of the best lefty moves around, as well. Mlachnik has a nice upside if he gets stronger and is a good follow for the next level. He is also a good student.
