5-foot-11, 180-pound, RHH hits from a slightly open stance, uses a leg kick and short stride to get square, engages lower half well and has a solid and repeatable swing path, has ability to drive the ball to the gaps, went 0-for-3 in game play. Moves fluidly around his SS position, good hands and arm strength from a high-3/4 release, shows good body control and ability to throw accurately on the move. One of the top SS in the 2018 class.
7/5/16 - Max FB: 83, FB: 81-83, CB: 70-72
5-foot-11, 180-pound RHP features a quick arm that works through a high-3/4 slot with shorter arm action, works quickly and pounds the zone with a compact delivery, fastball appears to get on hitters quickly, curveball is solid with late 11/5 action and depth, throws a lot of strikes with both pitches, allowed two hits and struck out three (2 FB, 1 CB) in two innings of work.
As a pithcher, continues to make a jump in velocity, arm is quick and works through a high-3/4 to over the top arm a lot, fastball showed occasional arm-side run and is thrown for strikes at the bottom of the zone, solid 12/6 action on curveball with good feel for the pitch, has good feel for a very solid changeup with good deception. Melton continues to evolve into a top 2018 prospect.
