Wypior

Campus Series-Canisius (July 5, 2017)

Wypior stands in at 6-foot-0, 175-pounds with a strong athletic frame. Ran a 5.20 home to first. Offensively- Righty sets up square to the pitcher with his feet wide outside shoulder width. Has a vertical body holding the bat above the bat shoulder using little pre-pitch bat movement. On pitch, his trigger is a quick stride forward while his hands move back slightly getting into a good hitting position. Utilizes good lower body rotation getting his hips cleared and using his whole-body frame in the swing process without rotation of the back foot. Could get more rotation on lower half, especially the back foot and not cause the back foot to drag forward. Shows quick hands to the hitting zone with an upward lift barrel action throughout into a high one-handed finish; gets on plain with contact. Demonstrated good plate coverage and line drive ability up the middle and to the pull side during batting practice round. Clean, fluid swing; recorded an exit velocity of 83 MPH. Defensively- Good approach and footwork towards the baseball. Fielding mechanics are clean with a quick funnel into the chest and appropriate transition into the throwing position. Has aggressive footwork towards intended target and made accurate throws. Moves well left/right and in on the run. Recorded a positional arm velocity of 81 MPH. Pitching- Sets up in the middle of the rubber with a long side step into a high leg raise above the hip crease. Breaks down well with good separation and loose arm action into a mid-¾ release. Utilizes his lower half well with good pull from the upper half and has a strong follow through getting himself into a good fielding position after release. Fastball range was 80-82 MPH and peaked at 84 MPH with arm side run. Change-up range was 64-65 MPH with arm side sink. Curveball range was 62-65 MPH with 12/6 arm action. Overall a very talented 2020 dual position prospect.
