June 13 Hitters

SAM SLAUGHTER / OF / STEWARTS CREEK, TN / 2020

Home-1st: 4.37, Position Velocity:  OF-81, Exit Velocity: 92
6-foot-0, 195-pound, LHH showed potential for all 5 tools, as he put on a show in BP.  Medium, well-proportioned athletic build w/ present strength, some physical projection.  Offensively, hits w/ a straight on, crouched stance w/ quiet hands into shift of weight, stride to slightly open and proper load.  Generates premium bat speed through the zone, whippy.  Pull oriented approach w/ ability to drive the baseball to all fields when sits back.  Swing is built to handle velocity.  Picked up 2 hits in game including a hammered ground-rule double to right field.  Lot of pull power, projectable all fields power as learns to keep weight back consistently and drive the ball to all fields.  Projects to hit for power and average.  Projectable above average runner.  Defensively, moves well in the OF w/ CF tools, arm strength w/ carry to target.  Very intriguing all-around 2020 that is a must see as the summer heats up.
