Notes

Comments

6/12/22

Physical: Strong, compact 5-foot-11, 180lb frame with a 7.43 60-yard dash.

Offensively: RHH. Balanced, upright stance as the hands operated up/down at the shoulder. Utilized a stretched lift and replace stride to initiate the swing through a flat path with lift at impact, two-handed finish. Worked up to an 89 mph bat-exit velocity with early connection and a grounded lower half, pull-side approach. 

Defensively: The middle infielder displayed a hop in the prep step and range to his left. Sat down on the ball with some forward tempo into the touch, funneling inward and releasing from ¾ slot up to 77 mph.

Pitching: RHP - The righty showed quicker pace in the delivery and got out over the front side at release. Held 76-78, T79 mph with hard run in on righties. Tunneled well with fading CH and short-action slider at 70-71 mph. Strike thrower.

7/07/21

Maryland Top Prospect Games West

Body: 5’10”, 175 pounds. Strong, athletic frame with tangible proportions throughout. 
Hit: RHH. Balanced, even stance at an upright position with quick rhythm in the hands at shoulder height. Utilized a short lift and replace stride and stretched load to initiate the bat head through a flat path into the hitting zone. High finish allowing for occasional lift and backspin to the pull side gap while hitting into a stiff front side. Generated a noticeable 25.7 G’s of rotational acceleration, flashing early connection and usable power at the plate. 
Power: 89 mph exit velocity during BP per TrackMan. Power is going to come in waves, already doing damage to pull-side on pitches out over the plate. 
Arm: RH. INF - 73 mph. Low ¾ to ¾ slot on the release with a slight bend in the elbow, accurate on the bag and can manipulate arm angles on the run. 
Defense: Hop in the prep step getting to a wide base and reacting with a quick first step on the toes. Above-average defensive qualities as the ball worked in/out of the glove with consistency. Range showed traveling easily to his glove hand side and finishing plays on the run. 
Run: 7.60 60-yard time.

Delivery: Deep side rocker into a quick paced delivery, medium leg lift and races into foot strike at stride length. Held balance through the finish and controlled head movement allowing for some repeatability in the release. 
Arm Action: RH. High ¾ with quickness on the front side. 
FB: T76 mph, 73-76 mph. Average spin rate of 1619 rpm per TrackMan. Threw for strikes, and could work both sides if needed with increased confidence. 
CB: 64-65 mph. Average spin rate of 1842 rpm per TrackMan. Short, horizontal movement at the last second with consistent release points allowing for it to be the go to secondary offering. 
CH: 67-70 mph. Killed spin with developing feel for the strike zone, has the chance to be a quality third pitch down the road.

2/27/21

Physical: 5-foot-10, 170LBS. 7.44SEC 60-Yard Dash.

Offensive: Starts in an upright stance that is slightly open. Gets some bend in the knees while preparing to load. Weight transfers into the rear leg as the hands work back. Hands get into a bow & arrow load and promotes a flat barrel path through the hitting zone. One handed finish.

Defensive: Primary 3B. Uses a hop as a prep step which works into wide base. Maintains a low chest angle and funnels to belt line. Arm goes through the arm swing and maintains bend in the elbow. 3/4 release point and will drop to side arm when throwing on the run.

Pitching: RHP. Starts on the 1B side of the rubber. Uses a rocker step and a leg lift to chest. The hands start at the belt line and work up in correlation with the leg lift. Drops into the rear leg as he gets down the mound. On glove break the throwing arm stabs down prior to working forward. 

2/27/21

Physical: 5’10 170 lb 3B/RHP ran a 7.3 laser timed 60-yard dash. 

Offensively: Uses some hand movement to start the load and find a slot that he can fire from. Shows ability to cover the plate and drive through the ball.

Defensively: Solid ability to catch multiple types of hops and create some momentum towards the target. Long arm swing and fire on his throws across the infield. Average arm strength from a pretty consistent arm slot.

Pitching: Long and free-flowing movements all direct towards home plate. Similar arm slot as used in the infield. Solid front legs allows him to stick at foot strike and get back side through the pitch.


2/15/20

5-foot-9, 155-pound right-handed hitter starts from a square stance and initiates his swing with a lift-and-replace stride. Stays behind the baseball well and uses a line drive approach. Registered a bat exit velocity of 78 mph and ran a 7.30 60-yard dash. Displayed active feet and solid lateral range with accurate 74 mph arm strength across the diamond from third base. Also sat 72-73 from a high 3/4 arm slot while pounding the zone with three pitches. Curveball sat 62-63 with 11/5 rotation and changeup was thrown at near fastball arm speed at 62-65.

12/07/19

MD Winter Update

Athletic body type and 5’9’’, 155 pound frame. Hits from a balanced, slightly open stance at the plate. Short back load with a small leg kick. Short to the ball with a compact, level swing path. Stays behind the ball and incorporates some lower half into the swing. Gets some extension past contact and finishes swing with one hand. Gap-to-gap line drive type hitter with occasional pop. Recorded a 72 mph exit velocity.

10/19/19

5-foot-9, 155-pound right-handed hitter starts from a wide, square stance and utilizes a lift-and-replace stride to begin. Width of stance leads to some balance issues taking away the ability to be strong at contact. Registered a bat exit velocity of 70 mph and ran a 7.75 60-yard dash. Showcased active feet and gains ground routinely with accurate 70 mph arm strength across the diamond defensively. The two-way prospect sat 70-71 while touching 77 mph on his final pitch out of a high 3/4 arm slot. Showed command of three pitches and repeats his delivery well. Curveball displayed 11/5 rotation at 59-61 and changeup was thrown at near fastball arm speed while sitting 63-65.

3/24/19

5-foot-8, 140-pound right-handed hitter starts from a slightly open stance and initiates his swing with a lift-and-replace stride. Displayed a flat swing path and balance throughout. Registered a bat exit velocity of 70 mph and ran an 8.02 60-yard dash. Showcased developing defensive actions at third base with accurate 71 mph arm strength across the diamond. The right sat 63-65 on the mound from a 3/4 arm slot with a short takeaway. Also displayed a cutter at the same velocity, a developing curveball at 53-54 and a changeup at 55-58.
