Scouting Report

9/10/20
Lanky, RHP/SS Austin Hunley (Mt. Juliet; Tennessee Commit) lands at 430 overall after running the FB up to 88 paired with a swing n' miss slider offering in some monster starts this summer. Hunley has been as consistent as they come all summer.  As his stuff continues to improve, he still maintains a firm grip in game/lineup management, often going deep into outings.  FB has sat 84-88 with late life and pairs with a biting SL at 73-76.  Long, lean projectable frame will continue to add strength and further enhance his repertoire, which already provides a challenging tunnel mix for opposing hitters.
6/06/20
The 6-foot-2, 175-pound Vol commit was giving the early morning nod after late gameplay the night prior, but he answered the call in a strong start to get his squad into bracket play.  Long, loose frame w/ plenty of room to fill out.  FB worked consistent 83-86 and paired well w/ sharp 10/4 SL at 73-76 with depth.  
9/18/19
6-foot-2, 155 pounds. Showed well on the mound, topping out at 85 mph; 4 mph increase from July. Gets extension towards home; slight rotational finish. Breaking ball had 11/5 action at 64-68 mph. Backed off RHH with breaking ball on inner-half of plate. 
10/21/18
6-1, 150-pound middle infielder shows all-around tools w/ some pull juice.  Tall, athletic frame w/ well-proportioned lean strength.  Super projectable.  Has just scratched the surface of his frame potential.  Offensively, hits w/ a straight on, upright stance w/ short hand rhythm into short knee to knee leg kick and short hand load.  Hips leak slightly, which can throw off his timing at times.  Flashes bat sped through the zone when staying in sync.  Pull oriented approach w/ lot of line drives.  Flashes some pull power.  Defensively, shows solid hands, though tends to get glove down late, w/ arm strength to project to stay on the left side of the infield.
