Licursi

6-foot-3, 265-pound, large, wide, thick athletic frame. Moves extremely well for a bigger player, time down the line was at 4.44. A right-handed hitting corner infielder, top tool is his overall strength and ability to swing the bat. At the plate, feet are wider, front foot starts slightly open, hands are loaded up at the shoulders with bat starting in a tilted position. The lower half creates power to the swing, uses a larger knee knock, gaining ground with stride foot. The swing is level to up, uses an all fields approach, major juice to both gaps, has enough pop to beat the outfielders. The tee exit velocity was clocked at 88 mph, showed hard contact in batting practice. Defensively, soft hands at third, moves well to glove side. Feet move throughout, with arm working out of a higher slot. The arm was clocked at 73 mph. An athlete, projects out for me as more of a first baseman long term.
