Notes

Comments

8/08/23

Physical: 6-4, 220 pounds; Long, sturdy build. 7.27 runner in the 60.

Offensively: RHH. Even setup, with feet wide spread; has a pre-pitch bat waggle. Short take back with the hands with an up and down stride for timing. Stays behind the ball while showing an aggressive lower half. Showed a downward swing path with a two handed finish.  More flyballs than line drives and groundballs with a peak exit velocity of 90 MPH via Trackman. Physical frame with power to the pull side..

Defensively: Starts with a balanced setup; uses prep hop while covering ground laterally. Hands are underneath the body with a clean transfer. Short take back from a low 3/4 arm slot. INF - 82 MPH.

Pitching: Uses a glove side setup while using a side step. Mid chest leg drive with a slight lean over the belt. Has a long stride landing inline with the plate. Long arm swing while arm stays in line with 2B; standard 3/4 slot. Spins off 1B side with finish. FB: Peak velo of 84 MPH, while sitting 82-84 MPH; life through the zone. SL: 78-79 MPH; late action.

2/27/22

Physical: Strong, advanced 6-foot-3, 220lb frame with a thick lower half. 7.61 runner in the 60.

Offensively: RHH - Wide, upright stance, as the barrel points up/down at the shoulder to begin. Utilized a toe-tap stride to initiate the swing through a flat path towards a two-handed finish on the backside. Heavy contact off of the front foot and featured some of the quicker hands in attendance (28 mph hand-speed), which contributed to a 77 mph peak bat-speed. Good chance to further develop into a run-producer, flashing legitimate juice to the LCF gap. Recorded a T89 mph exit velocity. 

Defensively: The first baseman demonstrated a wide base at the fielding window and presented the glove hand fingers down, out in front. Funneled cleanly and released with moderate effort from a loose, H ¾ slot (80 mph arm). Handles his own around the bag.

Pitching: RHP - The righty starts tall off the middle of the rubber; calm drop step and belt high stack position. Room for deeper stride length, but gets over the front side well from a H ¾ slot. The FB ranged from 78-80, T81 mph, holding the zone at a 60% clip. Mixed a sweeping low 60’s slider for strikes with a developing 64-66 mph straight CH at 1416rpms (killed spin well). 

6/15/21

Physical: Strong/projectable 6-foot-3, 200lb frame with tangible feel for his body. 7.66 runner in the 60-yard dash. 

Offensively: RHH - High postured, wide start position with the hands starting with controlled rhythm off the shoulder. Utilized a short toe tap stride to initiate the bat head through a flat path into the hitting zone. Slight gather on the backside allowing for some weight shift into a stiff front side; posted an impressive 40% line drive rate with success to LCF to LF, working up to a T87 mph bat-exit velocity per Trackman Baseball. The swing operated in one, smooth rotational move creating early connection and quick/twitchy hands on the inner half with the upper half taking over at times. 

Defensively: The primary first baseman featured adequate footwork at a wide, medium base at the fielding window. Funneled inward from a low position with the glove; consistent exchanges at the waist and released from a long, high ¾ slot (76 mph arm strength, accurate).


7/29/20
Physical: 6-foot-0, 170 pounds; sturdy, athletic frame. 8.26 runner in the 60.
Offensively: RHH. Even, wide stance a flat bat angle; loads onto backside with toe tap, hands separate back with forward move. Average effort in lower half with flat bat path through the zone. Pull side approach; peak Trackman exit velocity of 84 MPH.
Defensively: Wide setup; clean footwork, loose through transitions, athletic blocking pitches, accurate throws. Seamless transfer; short arm swing, low 3/4 arm slot. 2.40-2.54 pop times. C - 70 MPH.
Pitching: Center rubber setup, long side step; rhythmic motion into a methodical knee to belt leg lift, slightly closed stride with a soft front side. Long & straight back arm action, standard 3/4 arm slot. FB: T 74MPH, 72-74 MPH. Has arm side movement. SL: 62-65 MPH. A lot of sweeping movement, good trackman numbers. CH: 69-70 MPH. Maintains arm speed well.

3.2.19 - 5-foot-5, 135-pound right-handed hitter starts with a square stance and uses a quick leg-lift stride to initiate his swing. Displayed solid hands at the plate with present feel for the barrel as he notched a 59 mph bat-exit-velocity. The backstop utilized quick transfers to record 56 mph throws from the crouch. Ran a 9.22 60-yard dash.
