Game Performance

Notes

Comments

11.10.18

Medium/athletic frame and proportional build. Worked from the wind-up on the mound with a short rocker step into a balance point at the belt. Very simplistic delivery with repeatable mechanics. Landed slightly open with an OTT arm slot. CB showed some downer action and 11/4 shape. Erratic command of the pitch. CH was thrown with matching arm speed and fade, deception present. MIF, ran a 7.72 with an INF velo of 78. Currently a primary SS, profile suggests a move to 3rd or 2nd could happen down the line. Played confidently through ground balls with sure hands and smooth actions. LHH with slightly open stance and short stride. Relaxed upper body and naturally lofted bat path. Approach and ability suggest he could hit for power with future player development.  

1.19.19

Youthful frame, slender throughout. Height and length will give him a chance to mature into something special. Advanced feel for the barrel for a player his age. Taller stance from the left-side with a moderate stride length and hand load over the back foot. Wanted to pull the ball during his BP rounds. Line drive swing path with some loft could trend the power up as he matures. Adequate defender at this point, nothing flashy but confident hands and footwork that play through the ball. 2B or 3B projectability.
