Jakob
Luu

VA/DC Scout Blog

Luu has a shorter athletic frame. Defensively, he played shortstop and shows the lateral range and quickness to stay there with above average hands. He has a short arm action and below average arm strength at short, his arm would be closer to average strength at second, which is probably more natural for him, centerfield could also be a position in his future. Very fast, changes the game with his speed when he is on the bases. Advanced to second on a wild pitch at one point in the game, had a bad jump but just outran the throw from the catcher. At the plate, hits from a relaxed open stance, very short swing, level line drive path. Showed a good approach working gap to gap. Line drive hitter who works to get on base and then let his speed wreak havoc.
