6-foot, 180-pound third baseman has an average frame with some present strength and some projectability. Crouched, back-loaded stance with a true toe tap stride and advanced on plane efficiency (Avg: 85.1%). Generates above average bat speed and has excellent rotational acceleration (T 30.4 G; Avg: 25.7 G per Blast). The positive metrics at the plate lead to a heavy dose of barrels (34.8% hard hit) and gap pop (T 95.8 exit velo; Avg: 86.1 mph; T 336 ft per Trackman). Raw defensively as he has some areas to sharpen with average hands and some stiffness in the arm action; however, Derryberry can swing it and be an impact bat every time he steps up to the plate.
