Notes

Comments

8/04/19

Body Type: Big, physical arm at 6-foot-3, 215-pounds who has possesses plenty of strength.
Mechanical/Delivery Notes: Simple delivery with slower motion that requires effort. Arm works well with evident strength. Will need to work on fine tuning the timing aspect but when the arm is on time has potential to be electric.
Fastball: Life through the zone at 86-88 mph topping at 89 mph. Not much movement right now but  with addition of a 2 seam fastball could benefit the mix. Fastball spins at 1800-2100 rpm with mid 90s efficiency.
Curveball: Straight up and down curveball with 12/6 bite at  67-70 mph.
Slider: Best offspeed offering with arm speed consistent with the fastball and late break at 76-77 mph.
Pitchability: Projects to be a backend arm right now. Will be able to go out and throw hard while only needing to hone in one secondary offering
Hit: Physical stroke with a level path to contact. Simple swing in generaal that gfenerates easy jump off the barrel. Pull side tendencies in BP.
Power: 94 off the bat in BP.
Offensive Projection: Run Producer.
Field: Frame and skill set plays at the first base position. Moves with above average lateral mobility. Hands work at the position.
Throw: Arm is a big time tool.
Defensive Projection: 1B.

7/10/19

Body Type: 6-foot-3, and 215-pound, physical frame.
Mechanical/Delivery Notes: Fluid tempo to a delivery that doesn’t require much effort. Arm works and is on time. Everything works well together.
Fastball: 84-89 mph. Live pitch. Showed the velocity jump we’ve been waiting for. Easy velocity.
Curveball: Spins two different breaking balls that control different planes through the zone. Curveball has a bit bigger shape with slider showing slightly more depth. Both pitches are more than playable.
Changeup: Changeup also plays a solid offering. Nice wrinkle pitch that he maintains arm speed on. Shows fading action through the zone at 76-78 mph.
Pitchability: Threw strikes for the most part.
Additional Comments: The best we’ve seen him. One of the top uncommitted arms in the state that should receive his fair share of attention after this performance. 

Body Type: 6-foot-3, and 215-pound, physical frame.
Swing Mechanics: Right-handed hitter that starts in a balanced stance. Simple, yet repeatable load. 
Hit: Physical stroke with the ability to find the barrel often. Ball really jumps off the barrel. Some of the louder pop we saw on the day. Backspun the ball to the middle of the field. 
Power: 96.7 mph off the bat in BP. Easy gap abilities with loft power. 
Offensive Projection: Middle of lineup.
Field:  Plays with active feet in the infield. Ball skills are on par for his class.
Throw:  Throws from over the top with short and compact arm action.  Good arm strength for his age.
Defensive Projection:  Corner infield.

2/10/19

Body Type: 6-foot-3 215-pound prospect with a filled muscular frame.
Mechanical/Delivery Notes: Throws from a ¾ arm slot with a smooth, compact arm action. Creates a good downhill plane on his pitches.
Fastball: 83-85 mph fastball showed some good fade and sink. Showed promising arm side run.
Curveball: 72-74 mph curveball showed decent spin. Curveball showed a lateral dominant movement.
Changeup: 74-78 mph changeup was mostly true through the zone. Showed some cut and depth at times.
Pitchability: Good feel for his three pitch mix. Fastball and breaking ball combo paired well together to create good deception.
Role: Shows starter stuff for the high school level. May be a better fit as a relief arm at the next level with the good lateral movement on his breaking ball.

Body Type:  6-foot-3 215-pound prospect with a filled muscular frame.
Swing Mechanics: Balanced stance with a back load to hands during his controlled stride for timing.
Hit: All fields hitter with a bit more physicality to swing than speed at this stage. Stays inside the baseball well, flashing gap abilities. Heavy hands through contact with respectable jumps off the barrel.
Power: 86 mph exit velocity. Gap to gap pop.
Offensive Projection: Middle potential.
Run: 7.41 60-yard dash. 
Field: Frame and arm play at the third base position. Plays with quiet feet and respectable ball skills.
Throw: 83 mph arm strength across the infield.
Defensive Projection: Corner INF.

6/28/16

A big, strong kid at 6-foot-1, 180-pounds. His stuff is advanced beyond his years as he was basically unhittable on this day. Dillon works through a high-¾ slot with a very loose arm and obvious armspeed. His fastball sat between 79-82 mph and he ran it up to 83 mph a few times. Spins a tight, 11/5 shaped breaking ball with good depth and sharp break. Showed the ability to freeze hitters and get them to chase in the dirt. At the plate he has relatively simple mechanics and lets his strength take over. Bat gets through the zone on a level path with some quickness to it. Ball comes off his bat well with gap to gap pop at this stage. Reached a top exit velocity of 81 mph. In the infield he is very smooth for his size with fluid hands. Has quickness to his transfer before throwing across the infield with 73 mph arm strength. Ran a 7.7 60-yard dash.


3/19/16

6-foot, 180-pound prospect with strong, mature frame for his age. Throws from ¾ slot. Accurate throws with carry. Top velocity of 72 mph across the infield. Feet move well for his size. Fields from athletic position. Projectable right hand arm, pounds the zone with good mound presence. Throws from a high ¾ arm angle with a long arm displaying good whip action. 71-77 mph fastball with run, 10/4 sharp breaking curve 63-69 mph, and 65 mph sinking change up. Has a good feel for his pitches on the mound. Toe tap keeps bat in the hitting zone showing good power. Impressive exit velocity of 80 mph and ran a 8.15 60-yard dash.
