8-16-14

5-foot-10, 165-pound catcher/right-handed pitcher, and middle infielder impressed with arm strength both on the mound, behind the plate, and during infield evals. Behind the plate, threw 76 mph with pop times ranging between 2.31-2.36. Arm is strong but throwing action is long for position. Hits from a open, balanced setup. Hands drop in load and has a long stride which makes him jump out towards ball. Has a bat path looking to pull with 81 mph exit velocity which is good bat speed for this age. When he learns to quiet down extra movement should be able to take advantage of above average velocity. Has a good approach at plate and good composure.  Ran a 7.8 60 yard dash. We will also profile Medina in Pitching Analysis. Good looking young prospect.
