Power / Speed Score
A simple calculation that divides the athlete’s Exit Velocity Max by the athlete’s 60 Yard Dash time for the given event year. For example, 98 MPH / 7.00s = 14.00.
7/11/18 Defensively, shows soft, quiet glove hand in framing and receiving. Showcases excellent lateral agility and range while maintaining a soft wall and solid trunk angle in blocking. Hands and feet are quick and transfer is clean on throws. There is length to arm stoke. 71 mph arm strength out of the crouch played to POP time best of 2.09
Offensively, the 5-foot-8 165-pound, right-handed-hitter initiates swing from slightly open set up with short, controlled stride to neutral. Weight shift is passive and there is subte reach with stride leg. Hip turn is aggressive. A passive back elbow in load contributes to reduced separation. Hands are slotted low. Balance is good, bat path is flat and there is solid barrel feel. A bat exit velocity of 69 mph was registered.
On the mound, the right-hander works out of a mid 3/4 arm slot showing ability to repeat moderate effort delivery. Fastball was true at 73-77 mph. Curveball sat sat 67-68 and was commanded with 11/4-5 shape and moderate depth. Changeup at 69-71 was thrown with reasonable sell and intermittent fade/sink.
8/26/17 - 5-foot-7, 145-pound right-handed hitter initiates swing from slightly open set up with stride to open. McCartney's head is still and he stays behind baseball. There is passive weight shift and substantial back elbow leak leading to barrel drag. McCartney did square multiple balls in batting practice. Directly connecting with back elbow in combination with expected strength gains should result in marked improvement in bat speed.
Defensively, good blocking technique was demonstrated. Quick hands and feet allowed arm strength to play up to a top pop time of 2.09.
