Tristan Birks: SS/RHP, (2022) Tinora, OH. 5-foot-11, 160-pound athletic frame. At the plate, Birks had an exit velocity of 79 mph. Started in a tall stance with a big controlled load, then used a leg kick. Has a flat swing plane and raw bat speed. Athletic while in the infield, registered his best throw across the diamond at 69 mph; had soft hands, a clean exchange, and athletic footwork. Fields the ball out front, movements laterally were athletic. In the 60-yard dash, he clocked a time of 8.52. On the mound, showing good arm speed he used a ¾ arm angle with a short arm action. Drop-and-drive type pitcher who shows easy effort. Showed an athletic balance point. Threw his fastball 74-76 mph; shows arm side command and running action. Threw a 11/5 curveball (64-67) with gradual action. Had fading action and arm side command on his changeup (71-74).
Body Type: 5-foot-8, 185-pound physical frame.
Swing Mechanics: Simple load with minimal movements. Bat tip that gets his hands loaded well.
Hit: Uphill bat path with a pull side approach. Swings with intent, and has good feel in the box.
Power: Flashed it to the pull side.
Offensive Projection: TBD.
Field: Remains under control through fielding sequence. Ball skills are on par for his class.
Throw: Over the top arm slot with good arm strength. Good carry on his throws, and made accurate throws.
Defensive Projection: Corner infield.
Body Type: 5-foot-8, 185-pound physical frame.
Delivery/Mechanics: Very short arm action that stays on time with his lower half. Delivery is very fluid as he works down the mound.
Fastball: Not quite over the top arm slot that creates a little 2 seam run to it. Ranges from 73-76mph.
Slider: Spins it well with good side to side break to it. Throws the pitch with the same arm speed as his fastball. Ranges from 63-66mph.
Changeup: Has good feel for the pitch, but it is still developing into a secondary pitch. Ranges from 68-72mph.
Pitchability: Good.
