2/6/19

Body Type: 6-foot-1, 185-pound physical frame.

Swing Mechanics Left-handed hitter that starts in a wider setup. Uses a slight back load with hands during his toe turn timing trigger.

Hit: Swing works, hits every time we see him. All fields ability with natural backspin. Good depth to stroke, giving him a large margin for error in timing. Ball jumps. Hit tools carries to the next level.

Power: 94 mph exit velocity. Emerging loft power to pull with present gap abilities.

Offensive Projection: Run Producer who also projects to hit for average.

Run: 7.22 60-yard dash.

Field: Talented defender behind the dish. Quiet receiver that looks the part back there and consistently flashes sub 2.0 pop times.

Throw: 80 mph arm strength to second base. Arm is an impressive tool. Ball has some zip to it and was on the bag consistently.

Defensive Projection: C

Additional Comments: Scholarship level tools.

8/12/18
Left-handed hitter that starts in a balanced stance. Simple load followed by a balanced launch. Vertical barrel launch gives him easy whip and early bat speed through the zone. Physical kid with above average bat speed through the zone. Can use all fields with impressive feet for the barrel. Offers an above average skill set across the board behind the dish as well.  Scholarship level talent.

Really liked what I saw from Christopher, especially at the plate. A physical lefty stick whose well above average natural tools allow him to create effortless juice with a simple swing. Drove the ball all around the yard in BP and had three hits in game. Run producer type skillset. A good athlete that looked the part behind the dish and has the frame to play a corner spot if need be.

2/7/18

A smooth swinger from the left side. Movements are athletic and well synced, creating consistent balanced/timing. Sprays line drives to both fields showing the ability to let the ball travel or go get it without sacrificing barrel direction. Bat plays louder than exit velocity would suggest. Behind the dish he showcased above average exchange skills and received well in bullpens.

60-yard dash: 7.26

Pop Times: 1.91-1.97

Catcher Velocity: 79

Exit Velocity: 87


6/20/17

A lefty swinger that starts in a balanced setup. Takes his bat back to his shoulder during his toe turn load. Path is level and barrel showed some whip through the zone. Gets on plane early and stays through the baseball well. Bat speed is above average and the ball comes off his bat well when he found the barrel. In the outfield he uses calm footwork approaching the baseball. Fields teh ball with two hands to ensure ball secuirty. Gets sufficient use out of his crow hop while getting rid of the ball in a timely fashion. Arm strength is an above average tool at this stage. Behind the plate he starts in a mid crouch. Footwork is efficient and smooth. Transfer skills are adequate. Arm action is ideal for the position.

2/5/17
5-foot-11, 165-pound prospect. Very impressive day behind the plate. Showed flexible hips and solid receiving/blocking skills during bullpens. Catch and throw skills are above average for age. In the outfield he showed fluid footwork getting to the ball. Plays two handed while fielding. Uses exaggerated crow hop for momentum. A fluid swinger from the left side. Lower half is simple but efficient. Creates solid whip through the zone with above average bat speed. Barrel flows to the middle of the field, creating a margin for error in timing. Showed the ability to consistently produce line drives, flashing the ability to drive the ball into the gap.

60-yard Dash: 7.5
Pop Time: 2.04-2.15
Catcher Velocity: 72
Outfield Velocity: 80
Exit Velocity: 77
