10.28.17 Benavides is a hard-nosed, aggressive player with a strong, quick twitch, lean muscular frame at 5-foot-8, 150-pounds. The right-handed hitter has an aggressive approach and does not get cheated. Starting from a wide, crouched stance, he uses a big leg kick to load with rhythm, lands with athleticism, explosive lower half transfer as he rotates his hips with leverage and bat speed. Short, uphill path creates lift with a high finish, quick-strong hands, hard contact, and an exit velocity 87 mph off the tee. Behind the plate, he has a quick transfer and footwork into a short arm stroke. His pop times at this event ranged from 2.07-2.22 with a velocity from the crouch of 72 mph.
