An athletic left-handed bat that does everything well. After running a 7.0 60-yard dash, he laced balls from gap to gap with quick-strong hands and an easy weight transfer that projects for more pop in the future. The Rice commit showed 87 mph arm from the outfield, 79 mph from behind the plate, and posted an 89 mph exit velocity.
07.25.17 - Dukes is an all-around athletic left-handed hitting catcher with an athletic frame at 5-foot-11, 190-pounds. He has the skill and athleticism to be an impact player at the next level. Plus arm strength behind the plate (79 mph from the crouch), with average accuracy and excellent carry. A left-handed hitter, Dukes has athletic hands that keep the barrel in the zone a long time. Swing works with a pronounced early load and toe-tap, then he walks away from his hands as he drifts to his front side, uncoiling with lift, bat speed, and a loose finish. Drove the ball well during batting practice with projectable power to the pull side. Also worked out in the outfield, where he threw 85 mph with good carry, accuracy, and athleticism through the ball. Ran a 6.95 60-yard dash.
