Mitchell
Carter

2/9/16- 5-foot-7, 135-pounder that is a scrappy, smaller athlete and finds a way to make himself known during the game. Makes the plays in the infield and showed some range. At the plate, he has awareness of the strike zone and displayed the ability to hang in the count by fouling off some tough pitches with two strikes. Quick swing that has line drive potential. Aggressive on the base paths.

8/5/15 - Incoming junior who stands at 5-foot-7, 130 pounds with a smaller, compact, and athletic frame with some wiry strength. At the plate he has a simple approach with little wasted movement, gets a separation for his load, and has a small stride. He has a short, quick swing with a flat plane that produces consistent line drives to all fields. Good footwork and stays light on his toes in the field. Soft hands and a short, over the top arm action with plenty of arm for SS right now. Carter will eventually move over to 2B where he will fit nicely with his good actions and instincts. Threw 78 mph across the diamond produced a 74 mph exit bat velocity. We were not allowed to run the 60 but speed will be a major factor in his game and indicator of where he can play at the next level. Mitchell’s bat, fielding, and instincts should allow to play in college.
