C/2B Gary Swann (Liberty, 2024)
5-foot-6 160 pounds, compact build. Room for added athleticism. (Running) 7.55 runner in the 60. (Offense) RH. Max EV 95. Max Dist. 308. Simple and balanced set up with narrow base. Hands held at the shoulder. Uses a direct stride, gets him in a strong position to hit. Some separation created with the hands during stride. Swing is direct and stays tight, handled the ball at the top of the zone well. Direction is good through center. Mix of GB/LD/FB contact majority to the middle. Line drive gap-to-gap type bat. Lost the barrel at times creating weak contact in the air to the off side. With added strength and reps could be a good offensive catcher. (Defense) (C) RH. C velo 72. Pop times 2.13-2.30. Throwing technique is good, slightly rushed, throws missed short but on the bag. Slowing down some and creating a more repeatable arm slot and controlled technique could improve accuracy of throws and arm strength. Mobility behind the plate is average. Clean receiver and great leader behind the plate. Controlled the game well with intent to block.
Game action: 1-3 1B, K
Gary Swann, Liberty (AZ), 2024
Positional Profile: C/2B
Body: 5-foot-5, 155-pounds. Compact build, proportionate strength in upper/lower body.
Hit: RHH. Base is at shoulder width. Athletic bend in the knees. Hands held in tight with bat laying flat above the shoulder. Pushes hands back with a slight bat wrap in load. Creates some length with hands during stride. Path to the ball is direct. Body positioning and early length create some inconsistencies with contact. Best when weight is balanced and contact point is deeper.
Power: 92.56 max exit velocity, averaged 84.6 mph. 336’ max distance. Consistent hard contact.
Arm: RH. C - 71 mph. Quick release, throws were short of the bag but on target.
Defense: 1.94-2.20 pop times. Receiving was above average, caught 93 mph with some sink and handled it well. Was ready to block and technique was good. Quick release on throws, gains a little too much ground, staying on back side and using more body not just arm could help arm strength.
Run: 7.47 runner in the 60.
