CLASS OF 2029

Tooled up is what immediately comes to mind when watching Christy on the diamond. Consistently performed all week long both offensively and defensively en route to a championship victory. Abundance of strength and athleticism in the compact, broad-shouldered 5-foot-10, 181-pound frame. Caught barrels at will amongst staff in each look and against various pitch mixes with multiple 100 + exits across the tournament. Utilizes an early stride as he gets into his lower half well in a quick, balanced trigger while exploding through the zone with minimal wasted effort in the cut. Ball simply jumps off the bat in a direct path to contact while displaying present plus bat speed with advanced barrel feel and accuracy alike. Strength shows often and feel to work both gaps extremely well with excellent plate coverage to match. Impact glove in the grass with shades of a plus caliber defender down the line to profile in centerfield long-term. Came through in one of the biggest moments as he tracked a ball deep in the right-centerfield gap with effortless range showing, and ended a run-producing threat in the championship game. Advanced first step and instincts alike stand out backed by present foot speed (6.5 runner). Christy epitomizes the term “tool-shed” with plenty more to tap into and the high-level looks of production only continue to stack.
