Michigan Insider: Underclass Spotlight - Colin Czajkowski, LHP/OF

Name: Colin Czajkowski
Position: LHP/OF
School: Woodhaven
Class: 2019

Scouting Report: 6-foot-3, 170-pound prospect has a long projectable frame that should continue filling out over the years. In the OF uses choppy feet approaching the ball out front, fielding off his right leg, taking a few steps and throwing with a long arm. At the plate uses an open stance with his hands waist high. Steps into the pitch opening his front hip early swinging on a slight uphill plane. On the mound, works at a moderate pace using a high leg lift throwing from a high-3/4 arm angle. Threw his fastball downhill 81-83 mph. 2/8 breaking curve 67-69 mph with a tight spin and a straight 72 mph changeup.
Home to 1st: 4.22
Exit Velo: 90
OF Velo: 86 mph

PBR: What is your favorite subject in school and future major?
Colin: My favorite subject is Marketing and I plan on studying Business and Marketing in college.

PBR: Do you play another sport?
Colin: I also play varsity football and varsity basketball at Woodhaven.

PBR: Fun fact about yourself (something unique or people would not expect)?
Colin: My fun fact is I was fortunate enough to win a Cooperstown championship on my 12 year old travel team. Winning a championship in a tournament with 108 teams in it will be a lifelong memory for me.

PBR: What can you bring to a college baseball program?
Colin: Besides being a 6'3" left-handed pitcher that is hoping to be throwing in the upper-80s by the time I get to college, I can also bring leadership and effort to a college baseball program.

PBR: What are your baseball accolades (Tournament championship, all-league, etc...)
Colin: As a high school baseball player I earned a varsity letter as a 9th grader. This year, as a 10th grader, I am starting most games in the outfield when I am not on the mound. I threw a one hit complete game shutout vs. Northville last Saturday. As a travel baseball player I have won many tournament championships over the years. This includes two Perfect Game National Championships and a Cooperstown Championship.

PBR: How's your HS season going?
Colin: Our season is going great so far. Woodhaven High school is 13-1 overall and 7-0 in league games. I am batting .350 and during my 20 innings that I have pitched I have struck out 19 batters and only allowed 2 earned runs.

PBR: Who do you play for in the summer?
Colin: I play for Matt Petry's 16U MCBC Motor City Hit Dogs in the summer.
