Henry
Armstrong

Event: California State Games
Positional Profile: C
Physical: 5-9, 175-pounds; Stout build with some visible early muscle development and strength, particularly in legs. 7.69 runner in the 60, 4.29 30-yard split, 1.90 10-yard split, 25.1 vertical jump.
Offensively: RHH. EV max – 90.4 mph, sweet spot% - 40%, line drive% - 30%, bat speed max – 68 mph, bat speed avg – 62.4 mph, on-plane efficiency avg – 71.3%; rotational acceleration avg – 16.1; Tall set-up, medium width feet, small lift of foot before aggressive stride and full hip turn and high finish, fairly aggressive attack angle, lets it fly, throws barrel through contact.
Defensively: C velo – 69 mph, POPs 2.10-2.19; Able to sit very low ala Tony Peña which shows the hip agility he has, popped from right knee down position as he rolls into the throw, throws were generally around the bag in the air allowing MIF to make a play, showed soft hands and ability to massage the ball slightly as he received.

Body: 5-8, 160-pounds. Medium build. More filled out upper half for his age.
Hit: RHH. Slight lean into his back hip in stance. Rocks onto his backside and comes back forward using a smaller stride. Presses into the ground with his lead leg to stay balanced with his swing. Swing is direct to the ball and works on a more level path. Post impact results were positive with most balls leaving the bat with good backspin. Showed a middle of the field approach.
Power: 85.00 max exit velocity. Current singles power. Swing is clean. With better use of his lower half and increases in bat speed, more power should come.
Arm: RH. C - 67.00 mph. 4/5 accurate throwdowns. Shorter arm action that gets quick to release but lacks armspeed/strength. Higher arcing throwdowns that came down toward the bag.
Defense: 2.11-2.22 pop times. Quick feet and exchanges from behing the plate. Sets up upperbody well to get off accurate throws.
Run: 8.43 runner in the 60.
