Punzo

5-foot-9, 150-pound, thin lengthy athletic frame. The neck is long, has plenty of room to add strength and put weight on. A right-handed hitting middle infielder, the stance is open to even, hands are set just above the shoulder in a good loaded position, has some pre pitch movement to hands, bat and wrists have some tilt to them. For timing has a very small leg kick, stride is soft and straight. The swing is down to level to up with a two handed finish. The front foot and knee want to open just a bit, gets him to rotate out early. The approach is to all fields, line drive hitter. The tee exit velocity was clocked at 76 mph, look for that to improve with added strength. The time down the line was recorded at 4.62, had an athletic kick to him. Defensively, showed short quick prep steps, got around the baseball with momentum moving towards his target. Fielded the baseball from the ground up, hands looked to be soft and transferred to throwing hand smoothly. Double play feeds were performed correctly on both sides of the bag. The arm works out of a ¾ slot, clocked at 71 mph, opens it early on the backside. Projects for me as more of a second baseman, will get off the blocks better from the right side of infield.
