Notes

Comments

6/18/24
Uncommitted. 6’ even 190lb stocky, sturdy frame. Rowland had a solid tournament, getting some really good swings off at the dish. He utilizes a simple load throughout the swing, simply just coiling around his back hip with a minimal forward move. He has enough hand and bat speed to impact the baseball, and he was able to do just that throughout the tournament. He does a good job of keeping his hands back throughout the swing, allowing him to adjust to any pitch thrown at him. Quality athlete with some strength in the frame that impressed throughout the week.
