7/12/22

Pantzlaff is regularly a standout at our events for the ease in which he generates loud right-handed contact on repeat. He repeatedly showcases bat-to-ball skills and inherent strength that makes the most of that hand/eye coordination; listed at a stout/strong 5-foot-11, 215 pounds. His Blast Motion metrics are at the top of the charts, as he records serious bat and hand speed, and his average rotational acceleration (23.2g) led all 2023s.

7/12/22

Positional Profile: 1B
Body: 5-11, 215-pounds. Thick
Hits: RHH. Sock set up, loose consistent trigger, fall forward to hitting position Short direct, smooth, loose works from ground up, impacts the ball to all fields
Power: 96 max exit velocity, averaged 90 MPH. 329' max distance.
Arm: RH. INF-71 mph .3Q slot
Defense: Feel around the bag
Run: 8.52 runner in the 60.

2/19/22

Pantzlaff generated loud contact throughout BP, using the backside of the field with closing violence through impact, high exit speeds, and controlled line drive repeatability. His hardest hit ball left his bat at 98.4 mph and his furthest batted ball traveled 385 feet, further reiterating the power-profile attached to his right-handed barrel.

2/19/22

Positional Profile: 1B/RHP
Body: 5-11, 205-pounds. Strong, thick.
Hit: RHH. Tall, narrow, open setup. Relaxed and controlled leg kick.  Soft entry using the backside of the field with closing violence through impact. All fields high exit speeds with controlled line drive repeatability. Power in the frame, slug in the swing operation. One of the top rounds on the day for sure.
Power: 97.7 max exit velocity, averaged 91.5 mph. 385’ max distance.
Arm: RH. INF - 74 mph. Long loose action.
Defense: Well timed foot work. Looks it into the glove.
Run: 8.27 runner in the 60. 

 

 

Delivery: Slight drop/drive downhill pattern, creates forward momentum downhill, late lower half rotation into footstrike, strides in line to target. 

Arm Action: RH. Short arm action, 3/4 slot.
FB: T78.9, 76.9-78.6 mph. Plays straight.  T1995, 1902 average rpm.
CB: 65.5-68.3 mph. Knuckle grip. Developing feel to spin.  T2031, 1958 average rpm.
CH: 74.1-75.0 mph. Maintains arm speed while slightly lowering slot.  T1768, 1712 average rpm.

2/12/22

In October, Pantzlaff produced one of the best rounds of batting practice at a PBR Wisconsin showcase. On Saturday, he demonstrated offseason gains by averaging an exit speed of 90.5 mph from the right side, which led the event, and his best batted-ball left the bat at 98.4 and traveled 361 feet, which were also the highest measurements in each category at Appleton. Pantzlaff’s rotational acceleration, per Blast Motion, was recorded at 21.3g on average, which trailed just one other player at the event and it helped underscore his potential to contribute to the middle of a lineup at the next level, even in a first base-only profile.

2/12/22

Positional Profile: 1B/RHP
Body: 5-11, 220-pounds. Strong frame, thickness throughout.
Hit: RHH. Tall, narrow, open to square. Toe tap to plant. Swinging the foot down.  Aggressive rotation with deeper points of contact. Hanging back and entering deep and staying behind impact with his posture.
Power: 98.4 max exit velocity, averaged 90.1 mph. 361’ max distance.
Arm: RH. INF - 74 mph. Low slot, longer action.
Defense: Simple approach.
Run: 8.30 runner in the 60. 

2/21/21

Positional Profile: RHP/1B
Body: 5-foot-11, 190-pounds.
Delivery: Starts from the third base side of the rubber, tall/fall type delivery with some sit into his back hip, rides the slope downhill well. Maintains direction to target, square landing, athletic finish.
Arm Action: RH. Long arm action, high 3/4 slot.
FB: T78, 76-78 mph. Sinker-type, stays low in the zone, will induce ground balls.  T1995, 1928 average rpm.
CB: 64-69 mph. Thrown with fastball intent/conviction. Low-spin offering, 11/5 shape.  T1878, 1688 average rpm.
CH: 68-72 mph. Advanced offering that can effectively tunnel off fastball, disguises it well. Natural arm-side run and sink, true feel.  T1632, 1521 average rpm.
SPLT: 66-68 mph. Some downer action, but primarily straight.

Defense: Fields low to the ground, sure-handed gather out front, showed footwork feel around the bag.
Arm: RH. INF - 73 mph. Short compact arm stroke, high 3/4 slot.
Hit: RHH. Quiet in the box, balanced setup, fluid pre-pitch actions, hands load back in rhythm, tempoed leg kick trigger. Loose wrists, quick hands, uphill bat path, looks to elevate the baseball with a gap-to-gap approach.
Power: Comfortably showed noticeable bat strength and raw power for age. Averaged the third-hardest exit speed of this event (90.5 mph), with a 95.5 mph high.
