Scouting Report
6/12/22
Physical: Strong, muscular 5-foot-10, 177lb frame. 6.75 runner in the 60-yard dash.
Offensively: RHH. Balanced, even stance, as the hands operated high in rhythm by the head. Utilized a heel raise stride to initiate a powerful, rotational move through a flat path into the hitting zone. Repeated well for square contact back where it came from with body control evident. Notched a 95 mph bat-exit velocity via Trackman with room for more in a future top of the order role that can hit for some average. Leveraged the attack at the front of the plate and transferred energy properly.
Defensively: The shortstop demonstrated up-tempo footwork and beat the ball to the spot with natural feel in space. Some give in a soft glove hand that cleanly funneled; 82 mph arm from the trigger and changed slots effortlessly on double-play/slow roller.
7/30/20
Physical: Lean / athletic 5-foot-8, 140-pound frame with ability to continue adding strength as he matures. 7.02 runner in the 60-yard dash. Offensively: RHH. Balanced, slightly open stance with the hands starting idle on the shoulder in the setup. Utilized a leg-lift stride to initiate a flat barrel path into the hitting zone, short hands to the ball with ability to manipulate the bat head and continuously stay inside the baseball at will. Tough out at the plate and seems to find the barrel repeatedly, was able to get on time to pitches in any quadrant with an adjustable lower half and medium-low posture throughout the swing. Recorded a peak bat-exit velocity of 70 mph according to Trackman Baseball and a knack for using the RCF gap and going backside with regularity during batting practice. Defensively: The primary shortstop featured active footwork with ability to show short, rangy actions in either direction, made the play on the run with ease and approached the ball off of the middle of his body with a feel for transfers. Accurate, high ¾ arm-slot across the diamond with some quickness to it. INF - 78 mph Pitching: RHP - Started from the right side of the rubber with a side rocker step, quick pace throughout the delivery into a medium leg lift with adequate lower half drive towards the plate, medium-high posture upon footstrike and a quick arm coming through a moderate, high ¾ slot. FB ranged from 75-78 T79 mph with a peak of 2114 spin per Trackman Baseball, mixed in a sharp 67-70 mph breaker with downer action and 11/5 shape.
6/29/20
Physical: 5-foot-8, 140 pounds; lean, athletic build. 7.15 runner in the 60. Offensively: RHH. Open wide stance with flat bat angle; short take back of hands with a slight controlled leg kick. limited effort, strong lower half with direct swing path. Gap to gap approach with developing power; peak Trackman exit velocity of 87 MPH. Defensively: Low to the ground; laid back, fields center of body. Hands work underneath body, clean transfer; low 3/4 arm slot. INF - 77 MPH. Pitching: Wide setup, steps to center rubber; up-tempo delivery with effortless actions. Fluid short arm action, standard 3/4 arm slot. FB: T 78MPH, 73-78 MPH. FB had good life and was able to work edges of the zone with it. CB: 63-64 MPH. CB showed good depth and above average sweep from a 10-4 shape.
2/08/20
5-foot-8, 140-pound right-handed hitter starts from an open stance and initiates his swing with a lift-and-replace stride. Showcased a line drive approach with a direct swing path and a feel for the barrel. Registered a bat exit velocity of 81 mph and ran a 7.11 60-yard dash. Plays through the baseball routinely defensively and displayed 75 mph arm strength across the diamond. The righty sat 73-76 on the mound from a 3/4 arm slot with a compact delivery. Curveball showed 11/5 rotation at 62-64 and changeup was thrown at near fastball arm speed at 65-68.
