Kasunich opened eyes for a few reasons, but a proportional, athletic frame was evident before the game even started. When comparing measurables from last year, Kasunich gained 2 inches of height and tacked on 25 pounds. This rapid growth spurt was evident at the plate when he laced a blistering triple to right center. This three-bagger was the third consecutive extra-base hit of the inning, and fourth consecutive hit. Despite the extra weight, he displayed plus speed and an effortless stride around the bases as he came into third standing up. He boasts a quick, compact, repeatable swing that gets on plane early and on time leading to effortless power. Defensively, the left-handed first baseman featured a defensively sound repertoire of smooth, methodical footwork, quick hands, and comfortability throwing across the diamond. Kasunich had quite a solid Sophmore season, slashing .275/.406/.338, and it would not be shocking to see these numbers be higher by the end of this season.
