LATEST PG SHOWCASE REPORT
2006 Sunshine East Showcase
Nick Costopoulos is a 2007 OF/1B with a 5'9'', 155 lb. frame from Boca Raton FL, who attends Boca Raton HS. He has a slender frame, live athletic actions but not much present strength. Costopoulos is a left handed hitter who hits from a spread stance with little load or rhythm to the ball. He shows quick hands and a short stroke to the ball and makes consistent contact to all fields and likes to slap the ball on the ground and use his speed to get on base. Costopoulos is a 6.72 runner so he can beat out some routine ground balls if the defense lays back. He also looks like he sees the ball well and can draw his share of walks as a top of the order hitter. Costopoulos played a solid defensive outfield, getting good breaks to the ball with a quick release to make up for average arm strength. He's a good student, too.
