Michael Espinoza, Klein Oak (TX), 2027 Alvin CC
Positional Profile: 2B/OF RHH/INF Projects well for future strength. See as 6.9 or better runner, 6.93 60 now. Actions developing on the infield. Hit over power, line drive contact guy, will continue to develop at plate.
Body: 5-6, 151-pounds. Width to back/shoulders. Good middle/lower, projects well for adding strength.
Hit: RHH. Rotational back foot, gets stuck at times and slides away from plate. Get back foot fully turned on all swings and driving forward to increase use of lower 1/2 and impact. . With stride, bottom hand push down creating vertical launch causing length to swing. Soften hand movement with stride, allowing barrel to launch from area behind back of head, this will shorten path. Swing works, opportunity to increase consistency. 65.9 mph bat speed with 14.3 G's of rotational acceleration.
Power: 94 max exit velocity, averaged 85.6 mph. 307' max distance.
Arm: RH. INF-77 mph. Arm works. Recommend long toss program to increase arm speed and raw arm strength.
Defense: Moves well to baseball. With setup to field, work to field baseball with left foot ahead of left foot, play thru baseball with feet. Dead stop fielder now. Fields baseball deep, hands late, prior to fielding, puts glove/hand together. Eliminate this movement. Actions developing.
ATH: 6.93 runner in the 60. 1.68 and 3.83 in the 10 and 30 yard splits. Solid start and run form. Fringe plus runner now.
Vizual Edge: 73.16 Edge Score

Hit: RHH. Toe tap stride. Rotational back foot. Does tend to get stuck at times. Work on rotating it on time more consistently. Solid front leg. Rolls onto side. Shows some ability to stay connected with ground, work on keeping that front foot connected through the entire finish of swing. Hands/Barrel start in good position. Barrel gets to a vertical launch angle. Work to limit movement of barrel and keep it behind your head. 63 mph bat speed with 13.3 G's of rotational acceleration.
