Scouting Report

12/18/16 – 60 Time: 7.34, Position Velocity: IF-83, OF-84, Exit Velocity: 84
5-foot-11, 157-pound RHH showed to be a top prospect in the 2020 class and will only get better with physical maturity and development. Hits from a balanced stance, smooth load to backside with a mid-length stride, hands are quick and loose, gets the barrel on plane and keeps it in the zone a long time producing hard line drive contact from gap to gap. Hands are soft and shows good athleticism for his age, loose/athletic arm produced strong and accurate throws. Tackett is definitely one to watch from the 2020 class with the tools to develop into a true SS at the next level.
