Physical: Lengthy, projectable 6-foot-4, 180lb frame with athleticism present. 7.00 runner in the 60-yard dash.
Offensively: RHH - Open, upright stance with slight bend in the backside leg. Utilized a calm load to the shoulder and leg-kick stride to initiate the swing through a slightly uphill path into the hitting zone towards a one-handed finish. Good burst out over the plate, recording a 93 mph bat-exit velocity with wood and a 349 foot batted ball distance. Maintained a consistent round, staying on the barrel (55% sweet spot).
Defensively: The first baseman bounced around the bag with feel to either side. Able to pick the ball in the dirt during defensive evals and recorded a low-effort, accurate arm-strength to the plate.
Pitching: LHP - The primary southpaw began from the left side of the rubber with some hip-coil in the delivery. Straight back takeaway and length on the front-side, good extension towards the mitt from H ¾ slot. The real story was the offspeed stuff, which showed real command of the zone. A low-70’s CB and upper 70’s SL both worked well on the horizontal axis, mixing a fading 78-80 mph with killed spin. Landed an 86-87 mph FB to the arm-side of the plate (83% strikes).
