Holmes had himself a impressive overall summer at the State games and NE Future games. The 6-foot-3, 200 lb frame definitely stands out and then you see the raw strength and athleticism in all the actions on the field. The swing metrics definitely back that up starting with the hand speed that averaged 23.94 MPH and peaked at 27.80 MPH putting him right in the pro range of 23-29 MPH per Blast data. Next thing we saw was the bat speed which is a prerequisite for hitting for power. Holmes put up very impressive numbers here with a average of 78.47 MPH while peaking at 82 MPH! The Pro range is 66-78 MPH per Blast data, Holmes is clearly equipped to hit for power and it definitely translated to his BP where he had a peak exit velocity of 102 MPH. 

Next we will look at his ability to scale that power. For this we look at his Rotational Acceleration which averaged 16.11 G's and got up to 19.1 G's, this puts him right up with the Pro average of 16.8 according to Blast data. This shows that he can accelerate into his advanced bat speed quickly allowing to make later decisions and track pitches giving him a advantage on high spin fastballs and breaking balls. Can't imagine he will stay uncommitted very long.
