LATEST PG SHOWCASE REPORT
2015 Sunshine West Showcase
Josiah Contreras is a 2016 LHP/OF with a 5-10 145 lb. frame from Hacienda Heights, CA who attends Los Altos. Contreras has a medium sized frame with a young lean build. He pitches from a high 3/4 arm slot with an across body delivery. He has some deception to his delivery and pitches with some effort. Contreras has a pause at hand separation similar to Clayton Kershaw and swings his frontside open in his delivery. He gets around his fastball and gets cut action on it. Contreras throws a 1/7 curveball with some shape and some bite to it. He showed some feel for it as well. Defensively he is aggressive to the ball in the outfield and showed athleticism in his outfield actions. At the plate, Contreras starts with a wide base and takes an aggressive hack. Very good student.
