The 2015 Prep Baseball Report Eastern Shore Showcase took place on Tuesday, July 7th at the Delmarva Shorebirds stadium in Salisbury, MD.  35 prospects from the Delmarva (Delaware/Maryland) area in the 2016-2019 class put their ability on display in front of the PBR scouting staff and college coaches from around the area.

Over the course of this week we will be releasing position-by-position analysis articles with scouting reports on each player and identifying the top prospects. Two-way prospects will appear in a positional analysis as well as a pitching analysis. We shall identify top performers in each positional breakdown along with a younger talent (2018, 2019) a Future Watch if applicable. 

Today we look at the outfielders that participated in the event. Let’s take a look at the participants.

TOP PERFORMERS

Bryce Greenly OF/RHP Milford (DE) 2018
Athletic and projectable frame at 6-foot-2, 185-pounds.  Hits from an athletic set up with a smooth back load and slight lift in stride. Has a short path with a barrel that stays in zone with fast bat speed. Has balance in swing and gets good lower half usage. Power potential in this gap-to-gap style hitter. Exit velocity of 87 mph. A short and quick arm action throwing from a high ¾ arm angle. Sound foot work and stay on balls of feet. Plays through the ball well and does a nice job of keeping direction with throws and using own momentum. Throws had life on them at 89 mph. Ran a 6.96 60-yard dash

Javon Fields OF Appoquinimink (DE) 2018
Athletic and lanky at 6-foot 155-pounds. Hits from an athletic and slightly open setup.  Has a short bat path with quick bat speed and extension through contact. Has a quick load with a short stride. Gap-to-gap type hitter. Exit velocity of 81 mph.  Has active feet and sound mechanics in the outfield.  Confident first step and throws from a high ¾ arm angle.  Would like to see get over front side a bit more on throws to improve upon the 80 mph velocity from the outfield.
