2/21/16 - Hegarty is a 6-foot 180-pound left-handed hitting first baseman in Kansas’ 2017 class from Blue Valley HS.  He ran a 4.53 home-to-first and has an exit velo of 87 mph. At the plate, balanced set up, loads with linear move in back leg, no hand movement, short stride, aggressive and quick hands, used the middle of cage during batting practice showing some power.  On the infield, high three quarters release, quick catch and throw to start double play, soft hands, 57 mph positional velo. On the mound, delivery with good tempo, rhythm and flow. Maintains body control throughout. Three-quarters arm slot, arm works. Fastball with late cut/sink life, 84-87 mph, around the plate. Has shown a velocity increase over the last few year (topped out at 81 last winter), getting better. Breaking ball with 1/7 shape, at times sharp action, 69-70 mph. Change-up with arm-side fade, dies away from right-hander’s bats as it approaches the plate, maintains arm speed, deceptive pitch, 73-74 mph. Mid-80’s lefties with feel for three pitches tend to log a lot of innings in college baseball and if Hegarty continues to progress that is very likely to be the case.
