8/2/17 5-foot-8, 155 pound prospect has a compact build and is able to play all three OF spots. In the OF has good carry on his throw that plays beyond the 83 mph OF velocity he posted. At the plate showed good plate discipline not expanding the strike zone. Has fast hands working the middle of the diamond, taking the ball where it was pitched. Shows quick twitch skills with good agility. Exit Velo: 84 mph OF Velo: 83 mph 60 time: 6.93
2/12/17 The 5-foot-8, 155-pounder still looks to be growing, but is already putting up some impressive numbers. Peterson runs a 6.7 60-yard dash, and he utilizes that speed well in the outfield. Ranging side to side, and charging balls with confident athleticism, Peterson has a chance to stick in centerfield at the next level, but has the arm strength (88 mph) to plays any outfield spot. At the plate, Peterson starts with the bat on his shoulder, and hands held below while his front foot is open and he is in an overall crouch. From there, a small leg kick starts his hands down and back in a classic load before he works his hands, quickly, through the zone on a level plane. Peterson gets excellent hip drive off his backside, and his weight transfer is balanced and strong. The sweet-swinging left-hander already shows some gap to gap line drive power, and looks like he will be adding even more in the near future as he matures and adds muscle. Overall, Peterson’s speed and athleticism will continue to get him looks by recruiters, but it is his solid swing that will have them battling for his commitment.
