Hein showed off the biggest bat strength of any prospect at the event with multiple 100-plus exit velocities including the event-best 103.4 mph exit velocity. There is a controlled violence to the way Hein delivers the barrel, creating tons of bat speed that translates the major pull-side strength. Hein quickly showed this tool during gameplay, elevating a heater to the pull-side for towering home run during Game 1. The bat stood out most, but I was also impressed with the body comp improvements Hein has made to a more-athletic frame than we've seen of him in the past at 6-foot-1, 205 pounds.
