Name: Connor Peplow

Graduating Class: 2017

Position: RHP

School: Plainfield North

Height: 6-1

Weight: 155

The Skinny:
A late add to Team Illinois, Peplow emerged at July’s Class of 2017 Showcase as a high-interest prospect. At 6-foot-1, 155 pounds, Peplow is a lanky, long-limbed right-handed pitcher with plenty of room for physical development. His arm works athletically from a high-3/4 slot, with a fastball that topped at 88 mph. Peplow’s 72-74 slider also showed promise, as it occasionally flashed sharp action. Although he is competing at the Future Games as a pitcher, he also showed well as an outfielder. Peplow ran a 7.12 60 and was clocked at 87 mph from the outfield.

The Future Games:
This one-of-a-kind event will feature the best uncommitted Class of 2017 prospects from our 20-plus state coverage area. The Future Games will take place on July 30 - Aug 1 (Thursday-Saturday) at Grand Park, a state-of-the-art 22-field baseball complex located in Westfield, IN, just north of Indianapolis.

Last year, more than 110 colleges from all over the country were in attendance.
