Michael
Siano

Lefty with consistent hard contact. Full body build with above average bat-speed / hand-eye-coordination. Had a quality AB in game three at SUNY Cortland, took a 3-1 CB deep to the right center gap one hopping the fence for a stand-up double. This is what Siano does every time we see him in game situations, just hits.

Solidly-built 6-foot-2, 220-pound left-handed batter. Offensively - fluid and effortless swing, inner knee rotation triggers hips into a powerful motion for an exit velocity of 90 MPH; repeatable motion, keeps bat on level path through the strike zone, comfortable driving ball to middle third, makes consistent barrel contact, counter rotation between upper and lower torso could add to already impressive exit velocity. Defensively - basic footwork and fundamentals, sure glove, deliberate transfer, infield velocity of 64 MPH.

Siano stands in at 6-foot-1; 220 pounds with a corner infield frame. Room to develop strength and athleticism as his body matures. Ran an 8.06 – 60 time. Offensively- Slightly closed approach, hands in front of back shoulder with slight movement of the bat. On pitch his trigger is a quiet step forward remaining closed off with slight movement of his hands back. Swing plane is short to the hitting zone with his weight transfer being on his front leg on contact. High two handed finish with good rotation of bottom half. Displays an inside-out swing, and mostly hit the baseball the other way during the NYS Games. Displayed an exit velocity of 88 mph. Defensively- Fluid fielding the ball with good approach and footwork. Tends to not follow through on throws, can be improved with a shorter arm swing and improved arm strength. Good footwork around the bag at 1B. Displayed a position velocity of 60 mph.

Stands at 6-foot-1, 220 pounds, with a bigger body build.  Defensively – At first base looked good fielding through the ball and receiving throws from the position players, throws with a high 3/4 arm slot.  Offensively - At the plate his setup is relaxed and balanced, little leg kick stride, with a back load.  His hands are very compact, swinging with some uphill tilt, with a high finish with extension through the ball. Exit velocity was 85 MPH and he ran a 4.96 home to 1B.
