David Hernandez brought a consistent, professional approach to his day that left a strong impression. The 5'11", 181 lb middle infielder from St. Augustine High School is all about barrel control. Constant line drives made consistent contact to all quadrants, posting a 95.6 mph max exit velocity, 87.4 mph average, and a 335-foot max distance. The hit tool is the carrying skill here, and the feel for the barrel is evident on every swing. The arm defensively is a real weapon and arguably the most underrated part of the profile. He measured 83 mph across the diamond from the middle infield and stepped into right field at one point and touched 85 mph to the plate, one of the stronger reads of the day from any position. That versatility is worth noting, because while shortstop is the natural home, the arm and overall feel for the game would translate well to an outfield profile if needed. Hernandez is coming off a strong showing and is set up to make an impact heading into his next season for St. Augustine. A well-rounded INF that shows projection as a rising senior in his class.
