Peyton is 5-8 with an athletic frame that has projection left to it, he hits from the right side from an open, balanced athletic stance. Short leg kick stride on line, loads down and back into a slight bar, good rhythm to his swing. Hips rotate and he has good balance to swing. Level line drive swing with extension to through the ball, stays inside well, showed good approach working gap to gap. High barrel awareness, has chance to develop extra base power, exit velocity was 83. On the infield, rounds the ball with quick clean feet, fields with a good wide base and above average hands. Quick clean exchange, throws from a high three-quarters arm slot, short quick arm action, loose arm with plenty of carry and easy effort, infield velocity was 88.
Peyton is a young middle infielder at DeMatha. He has a great foundation as a player with nice athletic actions and fundamentally sound mechanics. That foundation should progress as he adds strength to his frame to become an interesting middle infield prospect.
