Christopher Swirbalus: RHP/C, (2024) Archbishop Williams, MA. 6-foot, 175-pound lean athletic build. Capable and athletic in the box, the right-handed hitter's best exit velocity was 86 mph. (65.3 mph bat speed average). (21.3 mph hand speed average). Starts in a balanced closed stance with a controlled load, then uses a small stride. Bat speed was developing, had an inside-out loose swing plane and good extension on his finish. He found multiple barrels with loud contact. Opposite field gap to gap approach. While catching, his best recorded velocity during throw downs was clocked at 72 mph; had consistent footwork, consistent hands, and a clean transfer. Clean setup. Showed a ¾ slot with consistent accuracy to the bag. Capable on the mound, showed developing arm speed, he had a high ¾ arm angle with a consistent arm action. Up-tempo type pitcher and uses some effort. During his delivery, balance point is tall with on- line shoulders. Lands closed with a falling off finish. Produced a fastball that came in at 74-76 mph; had command arm side around the zone and running action. (Max spin 2020; Avg 1958). His changeup showed arm side feel control and gradual fading action. Shows slurvey action and glove side around the zone control on his slider (63-66). (Max spin 1839; Avg 1748).
