LATEST PG SHOWCASE REPORT
2004 World Showcase
Flaherty is a young knuckleball pitcher with one of the better knuckleballs that we’ve ever seen from a young pitcher. Flaherty throws it anywhere from 56 to 65 mph and gets nice dancing and darting life to it consistently. He also mixed in a 62-67 mph curveball on occasion but didn’t show us the high hard one. It's difficult to grade a knuckle ball pitcher, but there's no question that he is very difficult to hit at any level. He throws it for strikes too. Sean is a very good student and we understand he has committed to Miami. This is perfect for him because if he is successful at Miami, he might just end up pitching to professional hitters.
