07.25.17 - Cienfuegos stands 5-foot-9, 155-pounds, with a quick twitch frame. The right-hander works from a high-¾ slot with a short, quick arm stroke. Drop and drive delivery with some effort, lands open with a recoiled finish. His fastball sat mostly 86-88 mph, dipping down to 83 and 84 mph a couple of times. Changes arm slots slightly on his curveball with gradual break, and 11/5 shape at 68-71 mph. His changeup was 76-78 mph with arm side run and fade. A two-way player and right-handed hitter, Cienfuegos starts from an open stance, quick leg kick to load, high hand trigger with slight bat wrap as he crouches into his legs, lowering himself into a short stride. Rotational lower half, strong contact with an exit velocity of 87 mph. Barrel gets on plane early and finishes with strength on a short finish and average balance. At shortstop, Cienfuegos has average hands with quick footwork. Longer exchange as he gathers to throw across the infield at 86 mph with effort and carry. Plays through the ball with average athleticism as he can catch and throw on the run.
