Grady Croak: RHP/OF, (2027) St John’s jesuit, OH. 5-foot-11, 155-pound. (64.0 mph bat speed average). (22.1 mph hand speed average). Started in an athletic balanced stance with a smooth quick load, then used a small leg kick. Bat speed was developing, showed an uphill swing plane and balanced finish. Found lots of barrels during his rounds. Gap to gap approach. In the outfield, his best throw of the day was clocked at 73 mph. Smooth on the mound, showed a loose long arm action and a ¾ arm angle with good arm speed Drop-and-drive type pitcher and shows easy effort. Has a consistent balance point and downhill shoulders. Lands square with balanced finish. (Max spin 1878; Avg 1753).
