Reed Blakely, Lovejoy (TX), 2027
Positional Profile: OF/1B LHH/OF Solid build/frame to add strength, lower shows strength now. Look for run time to increase some. Steady defender in OF, moves well to baseball. Corner OF. Raw arm strength will firm. Solid bat/power, shows hard contact, ability to use all fields, impact will firm. Player with steady tools, like the bat.
Body: 6-1, 188-pounds. Great build/frame to add strength. Width to back and shoulders, good lower.
Hit: LHH. Rotational back foot gets stuck in rotation, work to get fully turned and on time, driving back foot forward. Hits into firm front leg, solid posture at contact. Stride foot stays into ground, hits from ground up. Develop core strength with rotational exercises to increase rotational acceleration. Barrel/hands in good launch position. Takes solid path to zone with both hands and barrel, slight uphill path. 68.1 mph bat speed with 14 G's of rotational acceleration.
Power: 99 max exit velocity, averaged 90.0 mph. 336' max distance. Solid bat/power combo in future. Firm lower 1/2 in swing, lower 1/2 is passive, drive forward. More impact to come with adjustments.
Arm: LH. OF-80 mph. Arm works, behind crow hop kills momentum of feet and body to throw. Recommend trying to crow up in front.
Defense: Moves well to baseball, breaks down well to field, solid fielding ball off right foot out front.
ATH: 7.20 runner in the 60. 1.72 and 3.97 in the 10 and 30 yard splits. Solid stride and run form, look for speed to increase some. 20.20 max vertical.
Strong frame with room to continue adding strength. Solid defender who moves well to the ball and can play all three outfield positions. Shows a mature hit approach with consistent line-drive contact. Overall tool set continues to improve.
