Scouting Report

6/12/22

 

Physical: Strong, proportional frame at 6-foot, 190lbs; 7.55 runner in the 60-yard dash.

Offensively: LHH. Crouched, open stance with plenty of upper-half looseness to begin. Utilized a short lift and replace stride to initiate the swing through a slightly uphill path that repeated the first move often. Hit behind a stiff front side and closed the gap by delivering a heavy barrel to the front of the plate. One of the standout in-game hitters, adding multiple doubles to both gaps over the week. Recorded a 90 mph exit velocity via Trackman, more power to come soon. 

Defensively: The third baseman showed off choppy feet and fielded at the middle of his body. Sat down on the ball, but kept things moving, releasing up to 81 mph across the diamond after a glove-tap from OTT slot. Athletic actions in space with tempo to match.

 

 

2/12/22

 

 Physical: 6-foot-0, 192 pounds; Sturdy, proportional build. 7.78 runner in the 60.

Offensively: LHH. Open setup, with feet just outside his shoulders; upright bat position. Lifts hands with an up and down stride for timing. Stays behind the ball while showing a strong lower half. Showed a downward swing path with a one-handed finish.  More line drives than flyballs and groundballs with a peak exit velocity of 90 MPH via Trackman.

Defensively: Starts with a low to the ground setup; uses prep hop while showing active feet. Hands are soft with a clean transfer. Moderate arm circle from a standard 3/4 arm slot.  INF - 82 MPH.
