Christopher Hutchens: LHP/1B, (2023) St Xavier, OH. 6-foot-1, 165-pound athletic frame. During batting practice, the right-handed hitter clocked an exit velocity of 69 mph. Started in a wide balanced stance with a quick controlled load, then used a small leg kick. Had a level rotational swing plane, and his bat speed was raw. Solid in the infield, his best throw was recorded at 66 mph; has consistent developing feet, sure hands, and a developing exchange. Fields the ball out front, movements laterally were average. Has a side slot. On the mound, showing consistent arm speed he had a side arm angle and a short arm action. Drop-and-drive type pitcher who uses some effort. Showed an athletic balance point. Sat with his fastball at 63-64 mph; showed arm side control and running action. Shows a 1/7 curveball (51-52) with gradual action. Showed fading action and arm side control on his changeup (53-54). Throws a 1/7 slider (57-60) that has gradual action.
