Louisville recruit committed early. Strong, athletic, frame with speed/power combination. Could see a move to third base or corner OF at next level. Right handed hitter pummels the gaps and flashes pull-side power. Extra-base hit machine in 2019 for North Oldham HS as he hit 19 doubles, 1 triple, and 11 HR's. Shows plenty of arm strength defensively with good hands.
10/22/17 - Home-1st: 4.10, Position Velocity: IF-83, Exit Velocity: 85
7/5/17 - Home-1st: 4.6, Position Velocity: IF-86, Exit Velocity: 84
9/24/16 - 60 Time: 7.25, Position Velocity: IF-83, Exit Velocity: 84 5-foot-10, 155-pound RHH continues to prove himself as a top young prospect. Hits from a square stance with good balance and no wasted movement, good use of lower half and hand quickness gets the barrel through the zone, ability to make hard contact to all fields with occasional gap power, will develop more power as he gets physically stronger. Rangy defender with athletic actions and soft hands, very good arm strength across the infield from a high-3/4 release. Impressive young prospect.
7/5/16 - Home-1st: 4.65, Position Velocity: IF-78, Exit Velocity: 81 5-foot-10, 150-pound, RHH hits from a square stance and uses a short stride, stays quiet with no wasted movement, engages lower half well and generates good bat speed for age, shows quick hands on inner half pitches, flashes occasional gap power, went 1-for-4 in game play with a single to LF, has potential to be a high-level hitter. Shows average defensive hands with good athleticism, has a long high-/4 release that produces accurate throws, solid arm strength for age with carry across the diamond. Beard is a potential high-level prospect from the 2020 class who will likely stick as a SS.
