5-foot-7, 173-pound. Raw during batting practice, Laforce recorded an exit velocity of 86 mph. Started in an open athletic stance with a quick small load, then used a toe tap. Bat speed was quick, and used a flat rotational swing plane. He barreled up multiple balls during the round. Line drive approach. Solid in the infield, recorded a position velocity of 76 mph; shows consistent hands, and quick choppy feet. Laterally, his movements were athletic. During the event, ran the 60-yard dash in 7.75. Raw on the mound, showing some arm speed he had a quick arm action and a ¾ arm angle. Feel type pitcher who uses high effort. Curveball (63-64 mph), changeup (63-65 mph).Produced a fastball that came in at 75-77 mph.
