LATEST PG SHOWCASE REPORT
2020 Jr. National Showcase
Landon Russell is a 2022 SS/2B, OF with a 6-0 175 lb. frame from Phenix City, AL who attends Russell Co. Righthanded pitcher, starts with a simple turn and belt high leg lift, showed some arm strength with a fastball that that he works on top of sitting 85-88 mph and topped out at 89 mph, showed a hard slider in the upper 70's with tilt, has good feel for spin on the slider landing it for strikes and getting swings and misses when needed, went to the changeup more in the second inning with proper spin and some downward fading action, did a nice job of tunneling all three pitches from a high three-quarters arm slot while pounding the zone. Very good student. Verbal commitment to Auburn.
