Chase
Chaffin

9/24/17
A right-handed bat that starts in a balanced setup. Loading sequence is simple, creating consistent timing. Path has some natural loft to it. Strength stands out as his top tool in the box. Bat speed is developing and he should see added pop as it comes along. Middle of the lineup potential. At third base he has athletic footwork and moves well around the bag. Glove skills are above average and he has obvious confident in his glove. Actions are fluid and he showed developing arm strength across the diamond. On the bump he has a smooth, repeatable delivery. Transitions from his high leg lift into his hip load with fluidity. Lands on line at foot strike and finishes with momentum carrying him to home plate. Arm is clean and works through a high-¾ slot. A strike thrower that will sit 72-75 mph fastball. Spins a gradual breaking curveball at 62-64 mph. Used the offering as a freeze or chase pitch.
