Notes

Comments

3/04/23

Physical: Muscular 5-foot-8, 160-pound build with athletic traits.

Pitching: RHP. Starts from the left side of the mound out of the windup; quicker tempo and acceleration that closes the gap (H ¾ slot). Very well balanced on the front side, impressive hand-speed across a 3-pitch mix. Sat 84-86, T87MPH FB, 5.7FT release with ride, landing a shorter low-70’s CB and killed 78-80MPH CH; 67% zone.

10/29/22

Physical: Strong, athletic 5-foot-8, 165lb frame. 7.51 runner in the 60-yard dash.

Offensively: RHH. Open, wider stance, as the hands start slightly over the plate. Utilized a deliberate leg-kick stride to initiate the swing through a flat, whippy path into the hitting zone. Efficient weight-transfer while creating lift towards the finish, up to a 46% fly ball rate during BP. Delivered an aggressive lower-half to the ball with more power coming (T86 mph exit velocity).

Defensively: The third baseman used choppy, rounded footwork and lower posture to field out in front of his body. Gathered quickly and loaded onto the backside from a full H ¾ arm-circle, carrying throws across the infield at 83 mph. 

Pitching: RHP. Begins from the middle of the rubber; fast tempo that repeats, getting over the front side to finish. Held every bit of 82-83 mph (1928) with command of the FB. Mixed a short, intentful low-70’s CB, down in the zone, and well-pronated 76-78 mph CH.

6/12/22

Physical: Compact, athletic 5-foot-8, 150lb frame. 7.24 runner in the 60-yard dash.

Offensively: RHH. Slightly open, rhythmic stance as the hands waved out over the plate. Utilized a lower leg lift stride to initiate the swing through a sweeping, slightly uphill path into the hitting zone. Generated a pull-side approach and some loft at times up to a T83 mph bat-exit velocity. Found success when leveraging at the front of the plate, contact hitter. 

Defensively: The shortstop demonstrated up-tempo, choppy footwork that attacked the baseball with the glove hand. Stayed in motion and made the play across his body flawlessly with ability to change slots. Ran it up to 78 mph from his position.

Pitching: RHP - The righty featured a simple delivery that worked up/down and rotated with intent down the slope. Quick arm from shorter H ¾ slot and showed 79-82, T84 mph FB with feel for the zone. Mixed developing 70-71 mph CB and small-fading mid-70’s CH from the same slot.

2/19/22

Physical: 5-foot-7, 140 pounds; Wiry,  build.

Pitching: Uses a glove side setup while using a side step. Mid chest leg drive with a slight coil away from the plate. Has a long stride while landing slightly open. Long arm swing while showing some scap load; standard 3/4 slot. Upright with finish. FB: Peak velo of 83 MPH, while sitting 82-83 MPH; arm side run. CB: 69-70 MPH; slurve  like action.  CH: 75-76 MPH; fading action. OTHER: (SNK) 79-82 MPH.
