Mink

12/15/17- Uncommitted. Currently stands at 6-foot, 170 pounds with a lean, athletic frame. Has continued to improve offensively throughout the fall and during batting practice he showed a confident approach with quick hands and athleticism in the box. There is some length in the swing, but he was able to find the barrel often for numerous line drives up the middle. In the field, he shows solid, defensive actions and fields the ball under control and out in front. Throws to the bag were accurate, topping out at 85 mph. Also topped out at 87 mph on his throws from right field with carry. On the mound he is athletic with a quick arm with a fastball that sits 84-85 mph along with a 76-79 mph changeup and 73-74 mph slider. Mink will be a good follow throughout the spring season.

10/11/17- Uncommitted. Currently stands at 6-foot-170 pounds with a projectable, athletic build. The Underclass Games participant has recently added some muscle to his frame and it has not only shown defensively, but at the plate as well. In the box he shows an aggressive approach with a quick bat and the ability to drive the ball into the gaps. In the video here, Mink just misses putting one over the left-centerfield wall, but settles for a run scoring standup double. With the added strength to his frame and his overall game only continuing to improve, he will be a solid uncommitted follow for the rest of the fall.

09/30/17- The 6-foot, 170 pound infielder has continued to add strength on a high waist, projectable frame. Defensively, the actions really work well and project at third. He is athletic and moves well and has the frame for added strength. He showed enough arm strength to stay on the left side and could be an above average defender at third base. Offensively, he has a big leg kick trigger and gets quality separation. There is some length, but he is aggressive and uses the long levers to create present pull side power with more to come. There is a lot of athleticism with above average power potential in the future.  

04/18/17- Uncommitted. Currently ranked No. 89 in the Florida 2019 Class. Currently stands at 5-foot-11, 165 pounds with a lean, athletic build with long legs. Stood out at the plate where he went 2-for-4 on the night and showed the ability to drive the ball and make hard, solid contact with a quick bat. Open stance and shows good hand eye coordination. Makes the plays in the field, shows good instincts in the field.

01/21/17- The 5-foot-11, 165-pound 3B/RHP has shown all around solid actions on both sides of the ball. Defensively, the hands worked well and showed overall sound actions at third. Showed a feel for the position and topped out at 85 mph. The right handed hitter starts tall from an open stance. He has some stiffness, but shows a good path and bat speed with pull power potential. On the mound, the fastball ranged from  79-82 mph with a quick arm. Slider showed tilt and was tight and late breaking at 72 mph. It got swings and misses, and he threw it with confidence for strikes. Still young looking, and has a chance to develop into quality arm with a feel for the breaking ball.

12/15/16- Athletic, lean build standing at 5-foot-11, 165 pounds with a long-limbed frame. Open stance at the plate where he showed good balance in his set up with quick hands through the zone. Displayed the ability to use all of the plate as he took to the ball the other way multiple times. Showed actions and awareness in the field.

11/12/16- The 5-foot-11,165-pound 3B/RHP has an athletic and high-waisted frame. Offensively, the right handed hitter has a slight arm-bar in his load which tends to create some length in his swing. Even though he has some length, he shows both the athleticism and quality hands to find the barrel and work line drives from gap to gap. In the infield, he showed solid actions with good hands and enough arm to stay at third. On the mound, the righty shows a short and quick arm action from a crossfire delivery. The fastball worked from 73-76 mph. He showed some feel for the offspeed with a 66-67 mph curveball and a 69-70 mph changeup.

09/17/16- The 5-foot-10, 165 pound third baseman has an athletic frame with room to grow.  He featured an upright stance with a good level planed swing. This translated into the game, showing a quick bat with a hard hit ball to third base. He also showed his bat speed with an exit velocity of 85 mph off of the tee. Defensively, he showed a quick first step and good rhythm through the baseball. Showed the ability to make all of the plays and plenty of arm strength to stick at third base. As Mink continues to mature and grow, his athleticism and present tools gives him the potential to skyrocket.  This is an intriguing athlete with a lot left to go given his frame and will be a follow going forward.
