Notes

Comments

6/13/21

Physical: Lean, athletic 6-foot, 160lb frame with projection left in the build. 6.95 runner in the 60-yard dash. 

 

Offensively: RHH - Wide, slightly bent stance with the hands high showing rhythm above the shoulder to start; utilized a short lift and replace stride to initiate the hands through a slightly uphill path into the hitting zone posting strong rotational traits in the swing. Generated lots of leverage and connection in the swing, working up to a T90 mph bat-exit velocity via Trackman Baseball. Added an impressive 44% line drive rate with his best results coming to the LCF gap during his batting practice round. Available adjustability on multiple low pitches with ability to match pitch-plane early in ball flight; up to a 52% on-plane efficiency via Blast Motion, testing well with consistent bat-speed (72 mph average).

Defensively: The primary backstop featured seasoned receiving skills with a soft/absorbing glove hand at the catch point. Pop times ranged from 2.05-2.14 with quick/replaceable feet and low posture that worked under the ball in the catch/throw phase. The ball carried some to the target, appearing accurate on the bag to the tag side (75 mph arm, ¾ slot).

7/15/20

Physical: Lean and athletic 6-foot, 160-pound frame with some projectability throughout the build. 7.00 second 60-yard dash runner with quality straight line speed.

Offensively: RHH. Bent, slightly open stance with a wide setup as the hands started high next to the ear with moderate bounce off of the shoulder. Utilized a leg-hang stride to initiate a flat barrel path into the hitting zone from the shoulder, hit into a stiff front side with high posture throughout the swing. Lower half gets tall and pulls out quickly creating a pull-side approach and minimal depth through extension. Recorded a top bat-exit velocity of 89 mph with a mainly pull-side approach with juice at the front of the plate while getting long levers inside the baseball. Maximum distance of 286 feet per Trackman Baseball. 

Defensively: The primary catcher featured a moderately high setup with adequate receiving skills / minimal glove hand movement at the catch point. Pop times ranged from 2.15-2.22 with short straight line footwork and high posture. Accurate, high ¾ slot with a short arm circle on the release, worked to get around the ball while blocking with downward chest angles. C - 73 mph


6/11/19

6-foot, 155-pound right-handed hitter starts from a slightly open stance and initiates his swing from a leg-hang stride. Registered a bat exit velocity of 75 mph and ran a 7.70 60-yard dash. Showcased pop times of 2.25-2.35 defensively on throws of 71 mph from the crouch. Solid skill set will continue to develop through strength gains and physical maturity.
