Maynard

07.25.17 - Maynard is a player that college recruiters will want to see sooner than later, he has an athletic, lean-muscular, quick-twitch frame at 6-foot-1, 175-pounds. Posted a 7.0 60-yard dash time, but with his long, athletic strides that time should improve. The right-handed hitter maintains balance throughout his swing with loose hands and good barrel awareness. He starts from stacked stance with flex in his lower half, smooth rhythm to load back. Short stride, simple weight transfer, maintains great posture, heads stays on contact, quick hands, good extension with a loose finish through contact, barrel stays in the zone a long time. Took a solid round of batting practice, driving the ball through the middle of the field with authority, 90 mph exit velocity. During the game, he had a long, quality at-bat where he fouled off multiple pitches, ending with a high popup to shortstop, and a deep fly ball that he scorched to right field. At shortstop, he has fluid footwork, average hands and can throw from different slots while playing on the run with an accurate arm at 80 mph and a quick wrist release. A projectable athlete, Maynard's bat and speed definitely play at the next level.
