Liu Rodriguez Jr:

 

Athletic frame with room to add mass at 5’9”, 150. Switch hitter with a clean stroke from both sides. Uses no stride from the left side, rocking from his toe to heel during footstrike. Mostly linear transfer, hands move slightly upwards to a high finish. Righty load is different, stepping with his rear leg before using a short punch step with the lead leg. A bit of a flatter/more direct bat path from this side as well. Very solid footwork up the middle, keeps the hips low when working to the ball with a clean transfer from glove to release. All around solid baseball skills and movements that should develop into a solid player upon added strength and mass.
