Ethan Minerva: OF/OF, (2024) Hempfield Area, PA. 5-foot-8, 170-pound. (70.4 mph bat speed average). (19.6 mph hand speed average). Begins in an athletic quiet stance with a controlled load, then uses a quick stride. Bat speed is quick, shows an uphill swing plane and balanced finish. Solid in the outfield, he showed the ability to make throws to the bases at 77 mph; had sure hands, a natural exchange, and consistent footwork. Movements laterally were athletic and he fields the ball out front. Used a consistent arm action with a high ¾ slot. Displayed speed and athleticism at the event, recording a 60 time of 6.88.
Physical: 5-foot-9, 170 pounds; Lean, wiry build. 7.23 runner in the 60.
Offensively: RHH. Even setup, with feet shoulder width apart; bat positioned at a 45 degree angle. Lifts hands with a moderate leg kick for timing. Stays behind the ball while showing a strong lower half. Showed a flat swing path with a two handed finish. More flyballs than line drives and groundballs with a peak exit velocity of 87 MPH via Trackman. Swing path stays on plane efficiently and creates tilt.
Defensively: Starts with an upright /tall setup; walks into ready position while being aggressive. Hands are off to the side with a clean transfer. Short take back from a high 3/4 arm slot. OF - 79 MPH.
Physical: Lean, athletic 5-foot-8, 170lb frame with room to fill. 7.22 runner in the 60-yard dash.
Offensively: RHH. Simple, even stance, just inside shoulder-width with loose hands. Utilized a deliberate leg-hang stride to initiate the swing through a quick, flat path into the hitting zone. Stayed short on the approach, featuring hard contact over the middle of the field for a T85 mph exit velocity. Lived on the barrel and flashed his developing extra-base hit skill-set (295 foot distance).
Defensively: The primary outfielder demonstrated a straight-line attack downhill over the ball using a soft glove-hand to corral off his left side. Couple shuffles towards the target before reaching back for a 77 mph arm-strength (H ¾).
