Carter
Elliott

OC Preseason All-State: Five-foot-11, 145-pounds, long, lean, wiry strong build. Elliot showed flashes of his strength at the plate when his barrel was on time by driving balls into both gaps while focusing on the middle of the field. Registered an 86 mph exit velocity. Showed fair footwork around the bag at first base during the defensive portion of workout. On the mound He may flashed his most projection. Using a dip-and-drive delivery Elliott is able to hide the ball very well through his compact arm swing in the back. Fastball shows some life as it gets to the zone on a downhill plane. His curveball looks more slider right now flashing tight spin and sweeping action with the occasional traditional curveball break. His changeup flashed good speed differential from the fastball and while he shows feel for the pitch, it’s still a developing tool in his arsenal. 

Elliott showed to be a projectable righty throwing downhill with his fastball that he worked black-to-black at 81-83 mph. Elliott flashed a sharp curveball that showed occasional depth at 69-72 mph. Works quick and from a 3/4 slot with a compact arm in the back. At 5-foot-11, 145-pounds with long legs and high waist, there’s ample room for physical projection for Elliott who shows a clean, loose arm with repeatable mechanics.
