2/18/13 Beresford is 6-foot-4, 175 pounds with plenty of room to fill out as he physically gets stronger. Currently Beresford provides a great tall target at first base and moved well around the bag defensively. At the plate, he hits from a slight crouch with more weight on the backside and glides a little bit into his swing. He shows the ability to lift the ball. On the mound, Chris works in a slow deliberate delivery and high 3/4 arm action, maintains a good line and works downhill. As Chris grows physically look for a velo jump. Chris projects more as a pitcher at this time.
