Scouting Report

1/29/17 - Home-1st: 4.74, Pop Time: 1.97-2.09, Position Velocity:  C-72, Exit Velocity: 85
6'3, 200-pound, RHH showed improved strength and performance in many areas of his game since his first appearance at our East TN Prospect Games, hits from a balanced and open stance with relaxed hands, uses that same abbreviated leg kick and aggressive stride with some subtle hand movement to get loaded, lower half fires his hips through quickly and keeps his body in a strong position, swing plane is flat through the zone with some lift at the end that drives the ball to the pull side with some real power potential, can get a little handsy at times.  Defensively, showed good hands and quicker footwork behind the plate, exchange was quick and got rid of the ball from a short arm action through a high ¾ slot, throws had some slight tail. Continues to move up the 2018 ranks.
