Offensively: LHH. Bent, backside dominant stance with hands static at the shoulder, turns front shoulder in for timing mechanism coupled with a short and quick knee knock stride.

Larrea stands in at 5-foot-9, 135-pounds with a lean athletic frame. Ran a 7.79 – 60. Offensively- Lefty sets up square to the pitcher with his feet wide outside shoulder width. Shows a slight knee bend with an upright torso holding the bat above the back shoulder using little pre-pitch bat movement. On pitch, his trigger is a quick toe tap to stride forward while his hands move back into the hitting position.

Shows quick hands into the hitting zone with a level barrel path throughout into a mid-body one-handed finish. Demonstrated line drive ability all fields during batting practice round. Fluid, projectable swing with added strength and development. Recorded an exit velocity of 72 MPH. Defensively- Good approach to the baseball. Gets underneath well with good crow hop mechanics gaining ground throughout the process of the throw. Quick catch and release with accurate throws. Will get better with added strength development. Recorded a positional arm velocity of 75 MPH. Pitching- Sets up in the middle of the rubber with a simple side step into a high leg raise above the hip crease. Breaks down well with good separation into a high ¾ release point. Could engage lower half into the delivery with a better follow though to get in a good fielding position. Will come with more strength and development. Fastball range was 72-74 MPH and peaked at 74 MPH showing arm side run. Curveball was 59-61 MPH with good 12/6 action.
