2/12/17 Moves well defensively, playing through the catch with his feet and completing the slow roller play with relative ease. Clean transfer out of glove and short, easy arm action that generated 76 mph arm strength across the diamond. Ran a 6.81 60-yard dash. 5-foot-11, 180-pound right-handed hitter who hits from a slightly open stance, incorporating minimal stride and keeping his head and body still throughout the swing. Incorporates some pre-swing hand rhythm and posted an improved exit velocity of 88 mph.
10/29/16 Right-handed hitter who ran a 6.75 60-yard dash and has added strength to his now 5-foot-11, 180-pound frame. Hits from a slightly open stance with simple, repeatable approach. Swing is geared pullside and can get long, at times, due to some armbar that creates stiffness, while he has developing gap power (86 mph exit velocity). Moves well defensively and follows throws to target. Throws out of a lower slot with elbow in tight to body and 74 mph arm strength.
9/13/15 5-foot-10, 175-pound right-handed hitter. Hit from an open stance with a fairly quiet head and body. Flashed some batspeed, which he will better be able to take advantage of if he can iron out an armbar that creates some length in his swing. Posted solid offensive measurables (7.09 60-yard dash, 83-mph exit velocity). Defensively, he exhibited good actions, fielded the ball out front, and moved well to his gloveside, while his 72-mph arm strength and low arm slot currently project best at second base.
