Sanford

This was my first time seeing Sanford this spring and he didn’t disappoint. The Aggie commit carries himself as someone who is older than a sophomore.  He has the potential to be special.  He can really play shortstop, and I think he sticks there long term.  He made a diving play in the 6 hole and showed off the arm strength to get the runner out.  He can come in on the ball with ease as well. At the plate, the LHH has a short stroke with easy gap power that should continue to develop into more.  There isn’t a lot of wasted motion in the box, and he handled velocity easily in this viewing. Sanford is ranked #9 in the state, and that may not be high enough. Sanford has a chance to be a star.

Sanford stands 5-foot-11, 150-pounds and is still just starting to develop physically. Sanford first came on our radar at the PBR Texas Select Tournament playing shortstop for the Dallas Patriots and flashed all the tools we needed to see to get him an invite to the Future Games later in the summer. He displays natural athleticism in all of his movements, bouncing around the field at multiple infield positions while at the Future Games.  At the plate, the recent A&M commit shows a smooth left handed stroke with the ability to hit the ball hard to left field as well as catch the ball out front and hit it hard to the pull side. There is a natural buggy whip in the swing and shows a lot to like at the plate moving forward. Sanford’s offensive game doesn’t stop with the swing, he has bounce in his step as his long strides glide around the bases when given the chance to run. There is a ton to like moving forward about the young left handed hitting shortstop.
