LATEST PG SHOWCASE REPORT
2020 National Showcase  
James Peyton Smith is a 2021 RHP/1B with a 6-4 215 lb. frame from Springfield, TN who attends East Robertson. Outstanding young pitcher's body with long limbs, good present strength and plenty of physical projection remaining. Very fast arm from an extended 3/4's arm slot, has energy at release but repeats his mechanics well and shows athleticism in his delivery. Consistent mid-90's fastball, ball explodes out of his hand, mostly straight with occasional sink down in the zone but explodes on hitters at the plate, velocity plays up due to his throwing his secondary pitches for strikes. Threw both a slider and curveball but slider is the much better present pitch, maintains slot and tunnels the pitch well. Flashed quality deception to his change up with swing and miss potential in the future. Impressive combination of velocity, secondary pitches and ability to throw strikes. Very good student, verbal commitment to Vanderbilt. Selected to play in the Perfect Game All-American Classic.
