Scouting Report
Jake Burlingame, OF/RHP, Horseheads HS, NY (2016)
Burlingame stands 5-foot-10 170-pounds with an athletic body. On the mound he works fast through his delivery with a very clean, effortless arm that throws from a mid ¾ slot. His fastball was 80-82 mph with signs of plenty more in the tank (88 form OF) and natural arm side run. His curveball was 72 mph with 12/6 shape and good downward spin. He could finish his pitches a little more out in front, over his front knee which will allow for more action on his pitches.
OF/Hitting - Burlingame stands 5-foot-10 170-pounds with an athletic build. From the OF he charges the ball with his glove down, fields to his glove side, uses a clean transfer, long arm action to a high ¾ slot. Shows above average arm strength topping 88 mph on his throws. Very projectable, smooth, and runs very athletic showing a 4.11 home to first time. At the plate he swings from the left side, he uses a back load on the pitch from a wide relaxed stance. He drives his hands inside the ball showing power potential with an exit velocity of 87. His bat path is level through the zone with long extension after contact to a high finish.
