Scouting Notes: 2019 Ed Santa Showcase

Austin Beck 2B / RHP / Canton Central Catholic, OH / 2020

Report: 5-foot-10, 165-pound athletic body frame. Right-handed hitter starts his swing from an open stance getting back to being squared up to even before finishing with a two-handed follow through. Bat produces whip through the zone, recording a top exit velocity of 81 mph and has been recorded up to 86 mph in the past. Infielder showed good footwork fielding with his hands out in front of his body and showed the ability to throw using different arm slots when needed. Has arm strength and could probably play shortstop but could be better suited at second base at the next level. Recorded a velocity of 74 mph across the infield and recorded a 60-yard dash time of 7.51.
