9/25/16 - 60 Time: 7.82, Position Velocity:  IF-80, Exit Velocity: 92
6-foot-4, 215-pound, RHH hits from a balanced and very slightly open stance with some pre-pitch barrel movement, uses a short stride and hardly any upper body movement to get loaded, bat path is short and can be steep toward the ball, muscles up a little bit and could stay looser, lower half gets through and can sometimes over rotate a little bit, strong enough to get through the ball very well, showed gap to gap pop in BP.  Defensively, showed good footwork and hands around the bag with an ability to make all the plays, typically clean exchange led to a shorter arm action through a high ¾ release point, throws had some strength behind them.

6/14/16 - 60 Time: 7.72, Position Velocity:  IF-79, Exit Velocity: 90
6'4, 225-pound, RHH hits from a balanced and even stance and uses a short stride and a slight hand load back to get himself ready to go.  Lower half works well but will slack from time to time, causing him to drag his hands and come around the ball. When lower half got through, he was able to showcase a hard line drive approach, hitting balls to all fields in BP, bat path is a little steep because of how high his hands start and a lack of back side drive, strong kid can get firmly through the ball, had 2 singles in game play.  Defensively, showed good footwork and hands around the bag, experienced 1B knows how to and can make every necessary play, used a high ¾ arm slot to show slightly above average arm strength and struggled a little bit with the accuracy on his throws.  

1/18/16 - 6-foot-4, 225-pound right-handed hitter hits from a balanced stance and uses a short toe tap stride and subtle hand load to initiate his swing, good use of a powerful lower half helps to create a strong swing, short and downward swing path generate a lot of low line drives, over rotates at times, good bat speed and strength combined to produce an 87 mph exit velocity off the tee.  Defensively, displayed average hands and feet but knew his way around the bag, used a high-3/4 arm slot to get the ball across the infield at a 73 mph clip after utilizing a long, clean transfer. Gregory could improve upon his 8.09 60-yard dash but showed some good signs of improvement and has potential to hit for power at the next level.

11/1/14 - 6-foot-4, 200-pound prospect is a big strong body type. Slight crouch open stance hitting set-up, smooth/quiet load, short toe tap stride, good lower half usage, uphill bat path, fluid rhythm, shows gap to gap power, good bat path to ball, tendency to cut swing off, mechanical work should improve extension through the hitting zone, shows good bat speed with 86 mph exit velocity, solid batting practice round, went 1-for-4 in game play with a line drive single to right field. Shows natural instincts around the bag with good footwork, short arm action, high-¾ slot, shows sure hands and accurate arm. Another class of 2017 to follow closely.
