8/6/17

A right-handed hitter that starts in a balanced setup. Uses a fluid leg lift prior to his controlled stride. A back leg hitter that takes an uphill path to the baseball. Would like to see him flatten path to produce more consistent ball flight and eliminate topspin. Strength stands out in swing. Has the natural tools to be a run producer. In the outfield he uses aggressive footwork too and through the baseball. Ball skills are above average and he plays with confidence. Frame and arm suggest he fits best in the corners. Arm is an average to above average tool. Throws were on target, showing some carry. Behind the plate he starts in a mid crouch. Feet are quick as he gets out of his stance. Transfer skills are adequate. Arm action fits the position. Arm accuracy would be area for improvement.

6/20/17

A right-handed hitter that starts in an athletic setup. Gets things started with a leg kick load. Bat stays still during his stride. Strong kid with above average bat speed. Path is level, giving him a large margin for error in timing. Ball comes off his bat well, showing gap to gap pop. Behind the plate he starts in a mid crouch. Footwork has some quickness to it and creates solid direction. Transfer skills have room to speed up. Showed above average arm strength and threw with accuracy. In the outfield he plays with confidence to and through the baseball. Does a nice job of maintaining his throws that showed carry.

1/28/17
5-foot-11, 182-pound prospect. Projects as a corner type outfielder. Natural actions. Short arm actions through high ¾ arm slot. Fields ball with confidence and shows some quickness to his transfer. Maintains momentum through his throws. Top velocity of 78 mph to his throws. At the plate, he uses a small leg kick to initiate his lower half. Has room to improve full use of his lower half with better weight transfer through contact. Pull oriented swing with some power in his swing. Top exit velocity of 80 mph off the tee. Ran a 4.54 home to first time. On the mound, the righty uses an efficient delivery throwing from a ¾ arm slot. Fastball is located in the zone at 77-78 mph. Typically straight. Breaking ball has slurvy type action at 61-64 mph with 11/5 action. Changeup has occasional fade at 67-70 mph.

5/31/16
5-foot-10, 190-pound athletic build. Regular effort delivery on the mound. Long back arm action into a high ¾ slot. Shows some rhythm in his delivery with good direction to the plate. Fastball sat 73-77 mph. Curveball sat 59-61 mph with gradual 11/5 break. Changeup sat 67-69 mph. At the plate he uses a simple toe turn load to initiate his loading sequence. Hands move slightly back before firing the bat through the zone with definite strength on an uphill path. Would like to see him create more energy into contact with his lower half. Registered 86 mph exit velocity off the tee and ran a 4.93 from home to first. In the outfield he takes direct routes but will need to improve footwork. Throwing from a high ¾ slot he threw accurately with 77 mph arm strength to home plate.
