Player Spotlight: 2019 RHP Joshua Vega (Christ the King HS)
May 12, 2018
Our "Player Spotlights" will be reserved for any prospect across New York who's abilities on the field have made some noteworthy recent buzz. Possibly a recent event where a Top Performer Spotlight article is just not enough, or maybe a recent commitment to a major program. Whatever it is, I'll (Dan Cevette) be going in-depth on the player spotlighted below with personal insight and honest feedback. Let's get started.
Joshua Vega RHP / Christ the King , NY / 2019Rankings StateRank: 97 / POS: 24
CEVETTE'S QUICK HIT: Quick delivery, fast arm, and has shown us steady improvements through two events. He's coming to the NYS Games and expect to see him in the 85+ range with an advanced CB. SCOUTING REPORT: Standing 5-foot-10, 165-pounds from a lean athletic build. Quick tempo to his delivery, creates positive momentum, uses hip separation with a long stride, fluid long arm action, releasing the ball from a high 3/4 slot fastball peaks at 84 mph. Shows confidence and feel with the change-up, fastball hand speed with a diving to arm side action 75 - 76 mph. Curveball sits 73-75 mph showing a hard late 10/4 shape, swing and miss potential. In October of 2016 we witnessed him sitting 77 mph, now up to 84 showing significant arm strength improvement. |
