Listed at a physical 6-foot-2, 195-pounds, Whitney was one of the top left-handed hitters in attendance. His direct and simple swing path generates significant jump off the barrel, consistently flashing backspin line-drives up the middle. The ball jumps off the bat at 92.1 mph on average, with a max exit velocity of 100 mph. His defense also continues to improve where he peaked at 75 mph velocity from the crouch - routinely on and around the second base bag. He also ran a 7.20 60 giving him potential defensive versatility down the road. Regardless the bat is a weapon and should be his calling card moving forward. Name to know in the 2028 class.
