Szuba

7.04 60yd, 87 EV, 84 OF, FB 81-83 T84, CB 65-67

Athletically built, long frame with space for more strength as he continues to mature (7.04 60yd). Very tall with high hands and high back elbow; slight foot lift with hands working back. Hands get on plane deep and work a quick barrel turn upwards through the zone; showed the ability to create leverage and lift balls with easy to the pullside of the field (87 EV). Moves well in OF with quick feet; uses a long arm and quick release (84 OF). Very high front foot swing with hands staying at the waist in stretch; finishes over the firm high front leg showing momentum down the hill. Compact full swing arm working cleanly through the 3/4 slot. FB 81-83 T84 showing life in the zone using on the armside. CB 65-67 11/6 short with tight spin; small break able to throw for strikes.

6-foot-1, 175-pounds, long, lean, strong build with significant strength in the lower half. High waist with long limbs. Coming off a tibia fracture, Szuba seems to be regaining his form from a season ago. Clocked a laser timed 7.0 60-yard dash before showing off some gap-to-gap power during BP that saw him routinely knock balls off the fence in the gaps. It’s a smooth stroke from a simple setup that incorporates his strong lower half to generate his present power. It’s conceivable to think that will become over-the-fence power once the upper half catches up. Registered an 82 mph outfield velocity with accuracy to both third and home. Arm is quick with a short release from a compact stroke in the back. Shows proper footwork when working to the ball while funneling out front. High level athlete who carries a 3.5 GPA and an 1100 SAT score.
