6/17/14 - 5-foot-10, 195-pound prospect with strong legs, hands play at third base, shows good lateral movement, accurate throws across the infield at 77 mph (80 at previous event).  At the plate, hits from a wide and balanced setup with no stride, minimal load, short/quick path to the ball with some hand quickness, gap to gap approach, squared up several pitched in his round of batting practice, showed improved speed from previous event running a 4.64 down the first base line, bat speed present with 88 mph tee exit velocity, went 0-for-4 in game play making contact in each of his plate appearances.  On the mound would like to see more consistent use of lower half in delivery, tended to open front side early at times leading to inconsistent release point on this occasion, fastball is straight at 77-78 mph touching 80, curveball wasn’t as sharp as previous event at 63-64 mph, showed a 60 mph knuckle ball that dove at the bottom of the strike zone late.
1/19/14 - 5-foot-10, 195-pound prospect with strong lower half, uses long arm action through a high ¾ arm slot, easy effort in delivery, fastball sat 78-80 mph touching 81, showed good command of 66-69 mph curveball with 11/5 action, curveball showed big improvement from July event, changeup showed some cutting action at 68-69 mph, slows arm on the changeup.  AS a position player, defensively shows average hands, increase in arm strength across the infield at 80 mph (76 previous event).  At the plate, hits from a balanced setup with minimal stride, takes an aggressive swing with good balance throughout, good use of lower half torque in swing, has the potential to hit for power, registered 88 mph tee exit velocity, ran 4.81 down the first base line, prospect to follow in the 2016 class.
7/9/13 - 5-foot-10, 185-pound prospect with strong legs, shows solid glove around the 1B bag, 76 mph arm across the infield.  At the plate, hits from balanced setup, quiet approach, good use of lower half generates bat speed, consistently barreled the baseball up in his round, showed the ability to hit the ball to all fields, ran 7.88 60 yard dash, registered the top tee exit velocity of the event at 88 mph, impressive young hitter with potential to hit for power.  On the mound, shows online mechanics, uses long arm action through a high ¾ arm slot, can get better extension in delivery, fastball sat 79-80 mph touching 81, 2-seamer shows some arm-side run, curveball shows slight 12/6 action at 65-67 mph, tendency to slow arm on changeup which sat 66-70 with some arm-side action, has potential on mound, needs to continue to develop secondary pitches.
