2.24.19 - Offensively, the 5-foot-11, 170-pound primary Outfielder starts in a neutral, athletic stance. Displayed a simple, effective swing that he shows well. Looks to drive the ball with a slight launch. A 81 mph exit velocity was recorded. An event best 6.50-laser timed 60 was recorded.

Defensively, Adkins fields the ball inside of his body and displays athletic lateral movement. Due to a recent surgery, Adkins didn't complete the throwing portion of the drill. Overall, He is one of the best athletes in the state.

8/5/18
5-foot-11, 160-pound. Right-handed hitting outfield prospect. Starts with a slightly open stance, uses a big lift to initiate the lower half. Hands start high and create some tilt during the load. Path stays level working through the zone with some quickness. Line drive type hitter. Recorded an exit velocity of 80 mph. Showed a good first step in the outfield, tended to field the ball a bit too deep. Clean transfer with slight below average arm strength reaching a top velocity of 74 mph. Recorded a 4.4 home to first time.

 

06.20.18

5 feet 11, 160-pound athletic build. Strength and quickness are present.  Ran a 6.96 laser timed sixty on a day most times were down a bit due to the heat.  Right handed hitter with a balanced setup. Smooth load using a leg kick, keeping a quiet barrel. Fluid swing with good balance and barrel awareness. Barrel works short to the ball and staying level through the zone. Line drive approach looking to stay gap to gap with ball off his bat topping at 78 mph. Simple swing, repeats it, staying direct to the ball.  Showed an understanding of the strike zone in game play as well. Plays through balls in the outfield with average hands and fluid feet. Works to keep the ball to the outside of his left foot through the catch. Some effort in the exchange and transition. Long arm action throwing from a high ¾ slot with some accuracy to his throws. Positional velocity peaked at 75 mph.

 

2/18/18
5-foot-11, 160 pound outfielder showed a nice glove defensively while field each attempt. Feet moved nicely getting behind and to the side of the ball while coming through it taking momentum into throws home. Arm strength was shown with an 80 mph velocity. A physical bat from the right side. Movements are athletic, creating both energy and timing.  Swing is level with present strength/twitch to hands. Will use the entire field while producing most natural ball flight to the middle. Showed qualities of a run producer down the road.
60-yard dash: 6.98
Outfield Velocity: 80
Exit Velocity: 82

 

5/31/17
A right-handed hitter that starts in a taller setup. Uses a bat tip to load his upper half during his short stride forward. Swing is compact with solid barrel whip through the zone. Path was mostly level with some quickness to his bat. Top of the lineup type guy. In the outfield he moves light on his feet and plays with confidence. Fields the ball nicely on his glove hand side and plays through it efficiently. Would like to see him finish his throws more consistently.

Home to First: 4.18
Outfield Velocity: 77
Exit Velocity: 80



2/12/17 - 60 Time: 6.65, Position Velocity:  OF-72, Exit Velocity: 75

7/6/16 5-foot-9, 145-pound athletic body frame. The right-handed hitter has a quiet, simple swing. Hits from a wide stance, using a short stride. Hands stay quiet going straight to the ball, and swings with a level bat path through the zone. Showed the ability to use both sides of the field. Recorded a top exit velocity of 71 mph and ran a 6.83 60-yard dash. From the outfield, he could improve his crow-hop for more momentum. Throws from a long arm action into a high ¾ slot with 73 mph arm strength.

Adkins is a 5-foot-8, 140-pound OF from Cabell Midland High School.
