8/19/18

5-foot-9, 160-pound left-handed hitting outfielder. Ran a 4.63 down the line on his dig to first base. The glove is solid in the outfield and he moves well on the corners during his routes. Threw 77 mph from right field to the plate. The bat has improved immensely, tee exit velocity of 87 mph. The setup is even in base, small pick up and put down of the front foot as the ball approaches. The path has a slight uphill track to it, but the hand speed is excellent. After contact, uses a 1-handed finish. Good follow as he has worked and made significant strides in his game.

Tee Exit Velocity- 87 mph
OF Velocity - 77 mph

 

1/19/18

5-foot-9, 150-pound, strong, super athletic athlete. The shoulders are squared off, hands and wrists have above average strength to them for his age. A left-handed hitting outfielder, hands start lower, feet and lower half is balanced throughout. The stride is straight, gains ground with it, hands have separation from the body. The swing is level to up, barrel stays in the zone, gets through the baseball well. At times looks to yank and pull, results in getting around it a bit. The tee exit velocity was clocked at 81 mph, made hard contact in both rounds, finishes the swing at shoulder height. Ran the 30-yard dash in 4.10. Defensively, threw 74 mph from outfield to target, arm works out of a ¾ to high ¾ slot, throws were on a line to down hill. The transfer is accurate, gaining ground on crow hop. Feet look to be quick, attacked well. Off the mound, works from the left side, gets to a good gather, direction is inline. Looks to cup the ball on the back side, arm works out of a ¾ slot. The fastball was clocked at 69-70 mph. The change up had fade to arm side, clocked at 64-65 mph, used the entire body to throw this pitch. The breaking ball is still a work in progress, thrown slower at 59-60 mph, has top to bottom spin to it. Future is bright for this one.

30-Yard Dash- 4.10
Tee Exit- 81 MPH
Arm Velocity- 74 MPH

5-foot-7, 130-pound left-handed hitting outfielder who also pitched at the event. In the outfield, showed a good approach to the ball and showed a 68 mph arm from the outfield. The movements are athletic and he loves to play. Ran a 7.7 sixty. At the plate, showed a clean swing, the frame needs strength to help him develop as he matures. Sets up with a wide base and even handed start. The path is currently long but flat through the zone and through contact. With strength, I like the set up. Tee exit velocity of 75 mph. On the mound, showed a plus ¾ slot with a short arm swing on the backside. The delivery is athletic, small coil at the top of the lift. The tracking of the front shoulder is pulled off prior to foot strike, needs to be more direct. The post foot is on top of the rubber, causing forward lean. The fastball touched 68 mph with arm side run. The breaking ball was 56 mph and the changeup was 58 mph, both a work in progress.

60 YD- 7.7
Tee Exit Velocity- 75 mph
OF Velocity- 68 mph
