Offensively- At the plate his setup is relaxed and very balanced, short stride, with a smooth load.  His hands are very compact and strong, swinging on a level plane with long/full extension through the ball, with an athletic balance throughout the whole swing.  His exit velocity was 79 MPH.  Dillan is a plus outfielder and powerful hitter who shows a lot of potential to progress to the next level in college. Pitching- Wilkinson sat 75-76 (top 77 MPH) with his fastball which featured some late life. The broad shouldered LHP featured a balanced delivery with a square finish to the plate over his front side. Wilkinson featured an easy arm action from a high 3/4 arm slot. Curveball featured some 1-7 shape and was able to use it to both sides of the plate at 60-62 MPH. Change up checked in at 63-67 but will need to develop a better feel going forward.
