LHH hitting infielder that could profile in multiple spots inside a lineup considering combo of athleticism and feel for contact. High mid 80s exit velo and upper 60s type batspeed.
Jacobie Balo: SS/RHP, (2028) Rosecrans, OH. 5-foot-5, 150-pound. (62.6 mph bat speed average). (17.6 mph hand speed average). Starts in a tall stance with a smooth rhythmic load, then uses a small leg kick. Had a level swing plane, present bat speed and high finish. Barreled up lots of balls throughout his round. Pull side approach. While in the infield, recorded position velocities up to 74 mph. In the 60-yard dash, his time was 7.25. Athletic on the mound, showing good arm speed he had a ¾ arm angle with a loose arm action. Tall-and-fall type pitcher who shows easy effort. Tall balance point with downhill shoulders.
