Positional Profile: 2B/C
Body: 5-8/160lbs. Smaller frame. Athletic build. Room to add. Above average swift athletic tester. 10 yd - 1.82, 30 yd - 4.18, 60 yd - 7.28, VERT - 24.8, RSI - 2.82
Defense: 2.04-2.12. Quality catch/throw ability from behind the plate. Clean exchange and is quick out the crouch gaining good ground while getting aligned with 2B. At SS showed smooth actions. Light feet that play in rhythm and through the ball. Soft hands that work out front and with a quick exchange.
Arm: RH. C - 74 mph. INF - 79 mph. Short/quick action from behind the plate. 5/5 accurate throwdowns. 6/6 accurate from SS. Easy effort. Works quick to release. More in the tank.
Hit: RHH. Easy swing. Relaxed open stance. Loose hands. Smaller leg lift trigger he syncs with hand load. Slots barrel early for a flatter path through (78% on-plane efficiency). Avg. bat speed but accelerates it early (18gs avg. rotational acceleration). Avg. effort from lower half. More LDs than GBs/FBs during BP round. Consistent out front contact. LD knock up the box in gameplay.
Body: 5-7, 160-pounds. Athletic young catchers build, pound for pound strength, high baseball IQ.
Hit: RHH. Simple and strong, hand and barrel speed, high contact, two-hand finish. Line drive machine, doubles hitter but will there be homeruns, hitter to watch. Blast Motion scores of 71-54-69. Elite scores regardless of class, extreme swing projection, high contact and power projection equate extremely well down the line.
Power: 88.00 max exit velocity
Arm: C - 75.00 mph. INF - 81.00 mph. Arm plays well behind the plate with a quick release and no wasted movement. Arm plays in the infield too, as the quick release works off multiple throwing points and could be plus at second.
Defense: 1.99-2.06 pop times. Staying behind the plate should be the goal with the already above-average high school ability. The pop times, blocking skills and throwing ability project well. His ability to control his emotions and lead on the field will be key to overall success.
