Unsigned Senior Analysis: 1B Reports From Sept. 21

September 30, 2014

Dan CevetteChris Sullivan
Director, New York

September 21st was PBR NY's first Unsigned Senior Event, held at Damaschke Park, home to the Oneonta Outlaws, saw 30 plus kids from all over NYS make the trek in hopes of some much needed, late baseball exposure. These players did not disappoint, as we saw next level talent from almost every position. What really was impressive was the number of players that ran a 7.0 or better, given the ratio of players to sub 7.0 times, I know the 10 colleges in attendance were glad they made the trip. Let's take a look at the 1B's from this years first ever Unsigned Senior Event.

Chris Sullivan RHP/1B (Oswego HS, 2015)
Sullivan stands 6-foot-1 205-pounds with a strong body build. From the corner he moves quick around the bag evidenced by his 6.96 60 yard time. Fielding position is sound, transfer to release is slow, throws from a high-3/4 slot at 75 mph arm strength. At the plate his setup is wide and tall. On the pitch he uses a stride, hips slide forward and open, path is short to the ball, bat plane is level through contact. He uses a shoulder height finish, exit velocity was 90 mph off a tee showing above average power potential.

Tyler Clehane 1B (East Islip HS, 2015)
Clehane stands 6-foot-3 185-pounds with great size and presence at the corner. At first base he moves off the bag well getting around the ball. Stays low with glove down and out in front. Clean transfer, throws from a high-3/4 slot with arm strength at 76 mph. At the plate his setup is balanced and wide. Hands start back, on pitch small stride, bat plane is slightly uphill through the zone, extension after contact, shoulder height finish. Exit velocity was 80 mph.

Noah Martin 1B (Broadalbin-Perth HS, 2015)
Martin stands 6-foot-0, 220-pounds with a stocky build. At first he fields the ball out in front, funnels to his belt, short arm action, throws from a high-3/4 slot. Arm strength was 69 mph, if he focuses on getting his body through his throws he will see an increase on the gun. From the plate his setup is back and upright. On the pitch he loads back, strides, path is long, bat plane is slightly inclined through the zone, extension after contact, shoulder height finish. Exit velocity was 81 mph from the left side.
