Ryan Kelly, Los Osos High (CA), 2027 Positional Profile: 3B/1B Strong, burly hitter whose lower half generates a lot of power to all quadrants of the field. Body: 5-11, 211-pounds. Tall, firm frame with present strength in the lower and upper half. Hit: LHH. Balanced, even lower half with the front foot offset and a knee bend present. Upper half tight with the back elbow flared outward, bat pointed upward towards the sky towards the first base dugout. Hands held just above the shoulder. Medium leg lift stride, landing hard on the front foot to initiate the load into the rear leg. Slight cast in the hands to initiate separation between the upper and lower half. Very quick hands through the zone. Barrel trajectory isn't quite optimal, resulting in a lot of line drives and fly balls. Very strong, burly frame with a lot of power in the lower half that can work to all quadrants of the field. Arm: RH. INF-80 mph. Full-circle arm backpath from a high 3/4 release point. Easy release with an optimal throw trajectory. Defense: Works in a calm manner. Lower half moves well for his size with a good transfer as well.
