Really good showing from Yoder in my only look as he put together a multi-hit game out of the lead-off spot with a pair of backside and pull-side barrels. Balanced approach with plenty of strength to project in the physical, athletic 6-foot-2, 185-pound frame and an abundance of tools litters the profile. Consistently on-time and utilizes a leg-lift load while staying balanced through impact. Creates tremendous barrel length with present hand speed and barrel feel alike while showing adjustability in-zone. Feel to work line-to-line and always stays within himself with the ability to reach base at a high-clip. Looked the part defensively with a chance to stick in the dirt long-term. 6.5 runner and boasts tons of athleticism with range and soft hands. Arm strength could carry long-term with clean footwork and strong glove-to-hand with accurate throws from multiple spots in the dirt. It’s a tooled-up profile with more to come as Future Games appears to be on the horizon with this type of continued production.
