John
Zangrilli

Starts in a strong, balanced, slightly-hinged setup before a well-paced gather/load is paired with a shorter leg lift stride. Hands load down slightly before a twitchy launch delivers an on-plane barrel. Slightly-more impact than the 5-foot-9 frame suggests with exits topping at 92 mph, swing is geared more toward line drive contact than power. 7.15 runner.
