Nathan
Martinez

10/20/18 - Los Angeles Open - Six-foot-1, 150-pounds, large frame that is lean and wiry strong throughout. Long limbs with large feet. At the plate Martinez sharts with an upright, balanced setup with hands above the ear. Uses a leg lift trigger where he drops this hands into launch angle and drives his back hip into the ball. Shows some present bat speed and feel for the barrel along with sneaky pop as demonstrated by him peppering the outfield wall during BP. Gets extension through the ball. Defensively, Martinez is a twitchy-type athlete that shows good range and instincts when balls are hit in his direction. Hands are soft and his exchanges are clean. Backhand is true. Footwork is fluid but can at times get choppy. Martinez is a projectable player, particularly at the plate.
