3/11/20

Big, strong, physical frame. Pitched in relief for one inning against Gilman recording a clean frame striking out two of the three batters he faced. Fastball sat 82-84 and touched 85 mph. Mixed in a 65-68 mph breaking ball with 11/5 shape and a 70 mph change-up. Throws from the stretch with a high leg kick and quarter cork-screw turn. Gets to a compact balance point with a smooth kick out delivery down the mound. Lands square to the plate throwing with shorter arm action from a high three-quarter slot. Started the game at third base and hit clean-up. Squared a ball up right to the shortstop for an RBI late. Physical strength and power is certainly present.

Big, strong, physically imposing body type and 6'2'', 225 pound frame. Hits from a balanced, slightly closed stance at the plate. Quick, medium sized leg kick with some hand separation. Short to the ball with a more level swing path. Showed quick hands and fast bat speed. Big time strength and power are present as the ball jumps off the bat with ease. Having a great year offensively for McDonogh and is throwing up big power numbers hitting in the middle of their order. Very intriguing prospect and one of the loudest bats in the 2020 class by far.

MD Future Games Trials

Big, strong body type and 6-foot-2, 225 pound frame. Hits from a balanced, slightly closed stance at the plate. Big leg kick and short stride. Creates nice hand separation and stays behind the ball well. Gets some lower half involvement and showed quick hands and fast bat speed. Cuts finish short. Would like to see him clear front side more enabling him to use more of his lower half and rotate fully in finish. Short, uphill swing path with plus strength present. Exit velo topped at 94 mph. Gets in a good athletic set-up when fielding the ball at third base and moves well for his size. Showed soft hands and clean exchanges. Funnels ball to chest and throws with long arm action from a high three-quarter slot at 85 mph. Ran a 4.58 home-to-first time. Controlled side-step wind-up into a quick balance position. Clean hand separation and some lower half involvement. Gets over front side and throws downhill. Long arm action, creating quick arm speed through release. Throws from a high three-quarters arm slot with regular effort. Lands square to the plate with an athletic finish. Fastball was 80-81 mph. Breaking ball showed gradual 11/5 shape at 62-65 mph and change-up was 66-68 mph with plus fade.

Freshmen Free Showcase - Ran a 4.8 home to first. 86 mph exit velocity. 78 mph infield velocity.
