Big Apple Preview (October 8, 2016)

Compact, explosive frame with fast twitch actions at 5-foot-9 170 pounds. He ran a 7.37 60. Offensively- Sets up with a slightly open stance with a flat barrel. Uses a slight wrap of the hands for a load with an up-down leg kick. Stays behind the ball with an aggressive lower half; short into the zone with a elevated one hand finish (will stay two hands middle out). Line drives with gap potential; exit velocity peaked at 80 MPH but results play better. Defensively- High end athleticism up the middle; explosive first step, plus lateral actions and can change directions with ease and acceleration. Some flash but hands were consistent, quick release and strong arm at 84 MPH from a short arm action and over the top release. High ceiling on both sides of the ball.
