At 6-foot-2, 175 pounds, shoulders are sloped, the frame is long, lean and can add some weight. The stance is even and a bit wide, has a little more weight on the back side. The hands are high and wraps a little in his load. The bat path is good, hands work, it's flat through the zone with a one-handed finish. The tee exit velocity was 80 and was 4.56 down the line. In the outfield showed proper footwork with a clean quick transfer. The arm is good, was 80 on the gun, had life and carry. Someone to follow and stay on, plays the game hard.

Naples is a right-handed hitter, started with wide base, hands worked for the most part, were free and easy. The path to the ball was flat and he finished with one hand, got through the ball well. The tee exit velocity was 82. Actions in infield were good, hands were soft and got the ball into a good throwing position, arm path was clean. Foot speed and overall speed of mechanics needs to get quicker. The arm strength was 79 across the diamond and showed good footwork in starting the double play. On the mound threw from a ¾ slot, the arm action was short and clean. The change up was a good pitch, 70-74 slowed down it a bit, but had proper spin and depth to it. The curve ball was 66-69. Worked out of a slow tempo, needs to get it going a little more. The arm is clean and shows the ability to throw strikes, velocity should jump at some point.
