Scouting Report

6/15/20

 

Physical: Solid blend of physicality and athleticism in a large, powerful 6-foot-2, 190-pound frame. Body is ready for the next level. 6.89 runner in the 60-yard dash.

Offensively: RHH. Balanced, even stance with ease in the setup and stretch in a lift-and-replace stride. A powerful lower half generates some whip in the barrel creating easy juice to the middle of the field. When contacting the ball out in front, the outfielder possesses loud barrels with regularity, swing works in game through a slightly uphill barrel path towards contact. 94 MPH exit velocity during batting practice per Trackman.

Defensively: Played with increased feel during defensive evaluations. Stayed behind the ball with regularity and worked downhill through it on balls on the ground. Fielded the ball off the left foot which allowed for smooth, repeatable transfers and a fluid and accurate high ¾ arm-slot that’s long in the back and on the front side. Can go and get the baseball in the air with a quality drop step technique.  OF - 82 MPH.
