Scouting Report
New York Games (July 2015) Stands at 6-foot-2-inches, 185-pounds a strong, athletic body type. He has a good glove from the OF and shows some range on both sides of the ball. Clean and loose arm action with good accuracy to the target. At the plate his setup is balanced and relaxed, using timing mechanism to start hands through the zone, no stride. Keeps bat level through the hitting zone and has a short, quick path with his hands. Shows good contact ability with a mid-section finish after contact. Follow guy.


Preseason All-State (Feb 15, 2015) Chiarenza stands 6-foot-2, 185-pounds with a great physical build. At the plate the physical tools are all there. Needs to become more aggressive with attacking the ball. His setup is wide, loads back on the pitch, hands stay inside the playing field. Short extension on contact, shoulder high finish, athletic swing. From the OF goes back on the ball well, keeps ball in front, clean exchange. Long back arm action to a high-3/4 slot, arm strength at 76 mph. Ran a 7.06 60 yard dash.

Quick Hit
The frame is ideal, and the athleticism shown at a combine setting leaves you projecting big things from Chiarenza. Typical late-bloomer from the NE that will continue to improve as he enters college ball.
