UC Santa Barbara commit. Proskey was dominant on the mound in OPRF’s 10-0 win over Glenbard West. He threw a complete-game shutout (6 IN) with 12 strikeouts, one walk and three hits allowed in the win. He recorded a total of seven strikeouts in the fifth and sixth inning.
UC-Santa Barbara commit, currently ranked No. 34 in Illinois’ 2023 class. Extremely projectable frame, 6-foot-2, 155-pounds with long limbs and a high waist. His arm plays with a clean circle out of the glove, moving with a loose path into a ¾ release. Proskey works slightly up-tempo, stepping quickly into a leg-lift and then into a high balance point; from there he uses a drop/drive lower-half to move downhill, remaining in-line. His Fastball showed running action to the arm-side, playing with life through the zone, 84-85 mph. Showed some feel for both a breaking ball and changeup in warmups but stuck primarily to his fastball in game, collecting some swing and misses while also forcing a 6-4-3 double play. High-level 2023 follow.
Proskey toed the rubber on Saturday morning at our PBR at The Rock Fall Championships, and turned in one of the weekend’s most dominant starts. The long-limbed 6-foot-2, 155-pound Proskey struck out 12 batters in a complete game effort, helping lead the Sparks to a win. He relentlessly attacked hitters with an 83-86 mph fastball that came out clean from a loose, live arm. Proskey started to gain more feel for his breaking ball more as his start went on, landing it for strikes in the latter innings. The ease and fluidity that Proskey worked with downhill suggests a relatively high ceiling moving forward.
Positional Profile: RHP/SS
Body: 6-foot-2, 155-pounds. Lanky, high-waisted frame with levers that stand to add mass.
Delivery: Clean tall/fall type delivery, upright posture at balance point, strong front side, lead leg swings to footstrike with a closed-toe landing. Smooth and controlled movement patterns throughout, repeats.
Arm Action: RH. Clean arm action, high 3/4 slot, some length on back side.
FB: T85, 84-85 mph. Slight arm-side action at times, consistently located for strikes. T2240, 2092 average rpm.
CB: 70-73 mph. Flashed tight action off an 11/5 plane, above-average feel for pitch. T2331, 2205 average rpm.
CH: 76-77 mph. Deceptive arm action, slight sink, advanced feel and confidence for the pitch.
Uncommitted, ranked No. 35 in the Illinois 2023 class. High-projectable 6-foot-2 155-pound right-handed pitcher; plenty of room for continued added strength. Was featured in the Week 3 Scout Blog thanks to an impressive performance out of the ‘pen. Has worked his way into a starting role. Looks to be one of the top uncommitted arms in the class. Clean/quick ¾ arm action. Smooth delivery, balanced leg-lift, tall and fall, shows advanced hip-shoulder-separation, high-front side, hides the baseball. Fastball comes out of the hand clean, sat 85-87 mph early on with arm-side life, settled in at 83-86 mph later in the game. Curveball showed tight 11/5 action in the 72-75 mph range, tunneled well off his fastball. Flashed a changeup at 79 mph with arm-side life and feel for the bottom of the zone. High-follow 2023 Prospect.
