LATEST PG SHOWCASE REPORT
2023 Great Lakes Indoor Showcase (Saturday)
Jackson Boles is a 2024 OF/LHP with a 6-0 180 lb. frame from Canton, OH who attends Glenoak. Athletic build. In the outfield, he looks the part at the spot with loose athleticism. He works through the ball well, fielding off to the side. The arm stroke is quick and clean and produced quality carrying one hop accuracy to both bases. At the plate, he sets up with moderate square base and high back elbow. The load is calm with plenty of raw bat speed. The barrel control is work in progress and inconsistent timing produced quite a few flairs to the opposite field. The in-game production was much better than the batting practice round. On the mound, its a clean operation with side step to a moderate lift. Present arm speed with a short take back and slight lean back in posture. Fastball shows quality command early in the outing and late arm side life. Spin profile isn’t ideal but the breaker shows short action with decent depth. Calmed down in the second inning and carved batters. Velocity dropped mildly this inning but still had the pure stuff to get outs. 6.97 60-yard. Great student. Named to the Top Prospect list.
