Notes

Comments

7/31/22

Event: California State Games
Body: 5-10, 175-pounds. Lean strength throughout on average size body, has some visible muscularity in upper body.
Delivery: Starts on middle of rubber, hands start at waist, hands move upward with knee lift that gets to a tuck/coil over the rubber, down and out stride, energy can seep a little outside the lead knee with front hip moving to 3B side as stride leg stiffens through release, in-line stride, pulls glove arm through as head has some action on the FB, much more calm delivery on CB and CHG.
Arm Action: Long backside with some stab down to knee height, low-3/4 release.
FB: T84, 82-83 mph velo range. 2042 max spin (1894 avg), 12.7 IVB avg, 5.8 HM avg, 40% zone %, 5.0 avg extension, 4.7 release height, there is enough arm side action and life to suggest just a bit more extension and he’s got a late diving sinker that can be developed, somewhat of a power approach though the movement and delivery suggest there is a different approach (non-velo focused) that can work.
CB: 67-69 mph, 1908 max spin (1745 avg), 3.9 avg release height, 60% zone %, as the delivery calms for this pitch the feel for the zone increases, has quick change of direction with just enough depth to work inside and below bats of RHH.
CH: 73-77 mph, 1552 avg spin, 12.9 HM avg, 5.6 avg extension, 4.3 release height, 17% zone %, gets under it a bit, the movement is quality on the arm side though the height of the pitch to the zone will have to be lower on a more consistent basis, the spin reduction off the FB is good.

1/09/22

Physical: 5-10, 170 pounds; Athletic, proportional build. 7.15 runner in the 60.

Offensively: LHH. Even setup, with feet just outside his shoulders; flat bat to start. Short take back with the hands into his scap. Uses a slight leg-lift for timing. Stays behind the ball while showing a strong lower half. Showed a flat swing path with a two handed finish.  More groundballs than line drives and flyballs with a peak exit velocity of 95.00 MPH via Trackman. Balanced swing that sequences his body well into contact. Blast metrics show he can afford to lift a bit more. .

Defensively: Starts with a balanced setup; uses prep step while playing low to the ground. Hands are underneath the body and fields with two hands with a seamless transfer. Moderate arm circle from a high 3/4 arm slot. OF - 82.00 MPH. Is an athletic defender with a solid approach and that transitions into his crow hop with ease.

Pitching: Uses a glove side setup while using a side step. Mid chest leg drive with shoulders above the hips. Has a long stride while landing slightly open. Moderate arm swing while showing some scap load; high 3/4 slot. Spins off 3B side with finish. FB: Peak velo of 85 MPH, while sitting 82-85 MPH; life through the zone. SL: 70-72 MPH; lateral action. CH: 70-73 MPH; fading action.

7/16/21

Body: 5-9, 170-pounds. Broad shoulders, present athleticism, room for more, some twitch, height needed.
Hit: LHH. Wide stance, expands with two stikes, front foot lift and coil to hitting position, rolls over and rotates front foot, two-hand finish.  Blast Motion score 31/59/55. Average connection and rotation scores show present ability to stay connected while adjusting in the zone with some present power potential. Below-average plane score shows consistent and repeatable swing path needed.
Power: 90 max exit velocity.
Arm: LH. OF - 82 mph. Max effort throws, full body integration, arm plays in right-field, accuracy over speed needed at times.
Defense: Worked quickly to the ball, quick ball to ear to release, 3 outfield position potential.
Run: 7.37 runner in the 60.

Delivery: Center of the mound start, quick leg lift, drop and drive, opens front leg, falls off glove side, max effort throughout.
Arm Action: LH. High 3/4, medium arm swing, no pause, consistently quick throughout
FB: T84, 82-83 mph. Fastball shows life with hop, located predominately glove side, side-to-side command needed.
CB: 72-73 mph. Curveball shows swing and miss, good speed differential from fastball, average spin. 
CH: 73-76 mph. Changeup pronated and located arm side has plus-potential. Ideal speed differential from fastball, showed late sinking fade.

7/07/21

Body: 5-9, 170-pounds. Athletic, even build with a sturdy base. Some physicality with room for further development.
Delivery: Simple, up-tempo delivery with a controlled leg kick. Sits into the rear glute well and rides down the mound. Blocks well on the front side with some visible effort.
Arm Action: LH. Semi short arm stroke that is quick and gets up on time. Hides the ball well.
FB: T83, 80-82 mph. Fastball averaged 12.9 inches of Induced Vertical break and 13.8 inches of horizontal movement. Showed potential for above average ride with a peak of 17.1 IVB. T,  average rpm.
CB: 70-72 mph. Slurvy breaking ball that he showed the ability to get over for strikes. Almost equal drop and sweep with 4.5 inches and 3.9 inches, respectively.  T,  average rpm.
CH: 72-74 mph. Does a quality job of killing vertical break and separating movement from the FB. Average of 8.4 IVB to go along with 15.3 inches of horizontal movement. 

Hit: LHH. Neutral to start with a wide base. Keeps the bat flat on shoulder and launches from there.  Level barrel path with some loft to the pull side. Above average bat speed that peaked at 85.2 MPH.
Power: 91.00 max exit velocity
Arm: LH. OF - 79.00 mph. A lower arm slot with shorter arm action that can get long in the back at times.
Defense: Fielded balls under control and in rhythm in the OF, moved well laterally with quality footwork.
Run: 7.10 runner in the 60. 

3/07/21

Body: 5-9, 170-pounds. Average build with more to come, arms and legs work together, showed pliability.
Defense: Corner outfield ability, arm has right-field projection, speed development needed to play center.
Arm: LH.  OF - 80 mph. Arm works loose and freely, kept the ball low and on a hop, 3/5 on accuracy.
Hit: LHH. Clean left-handed swing, short through the zone, rotates well with a two-handed finish.  Blast Motion scores of 27-51-74 show a hitter with plus rotational ability and below-average plane. Rotational ability comes as no surprise as he passed that eye test with batting practice home runs and consistent noticeable loud contact. Below-average plane shows concern for high strikeout potential.
Power: 91 mph exit velocity. 
Run: 7.46 runner in the 60.

Body: 5-9, 170-pounds. Average build with more to come, arms and legs work together, showed pliability.
Delivery: Good overall effort, fantastic extension, significant projectability on the mound.
Arm Action: LH. Long arm swing, 3:30 tilt, staying on top of pitches is key, whippy follow through.
FB: T82, 79-82 mph. Fastball shows life; can work up in zone thanks to above-average vertical attack angle data .
CB: 65-68 mph. Quality high school curveball, arm speed not the same as fastball at times, finishing the pitch with conviction will enhance 1842 spin average. 
CH: 74-76 mph. Speed a bit too fast, run works well off fastball, potential for swing and miss.
