By Andy Sroka
Illinois and Wisconsin Assistant Director

On Sunday, Feb. 6, Prep Baseball Report will host the 20th edition of its prestigious, flagship event: the Super 60 Pro Showcase. Since the event’s inception in 2003, more than 300 players have been selected in the MLB Draft, including 25 first-round picks and 26 second-rounders.

We're starting our march toward the Super 60 today by highlighting the prospects set to join us, shining a light on their impressive player profiles that they've groomed through their high school careers, leading them to this point, vying for the attention of the pro scouting community.

Scouting Report

9/17/21

The Pacific Northwest keeps churning out big arms, and Jackson Cox caught the most helium throughout the 2021 summer. Running his fastball up to 95 mph thanks to a quick/whippy arm that can be electric with heaviness at the plate, Cox is athletic on the mound even without much use of the lower-half. The slider (79-81) is quickly becoming an elite pitch with 3000+ RPM that is sure to excite scouting departments, and already garners plenty of swings and misses. The 6-foot-1, 185-pound Oregon recruit has some of the highest upside in the class with an athletic frame that should add much more strength in the future, and the pure stuff to make an even bigger jump perhaps as soon as next spring.
