Scouting Report

2/18/23

 

Physical: 5-foot-10, 165 pounds; Lean, athletic build. 7.18 runner in the 60.

Offensively: RHH. Even setup, with feet just outside his shoulders; bat positioned at a 45 degree angle. Short take back with the hands with a slight leg-kick for timing. Slides weight forward pre-contact. while showing an aggressive lower half. Showed a flat swing path with a a finish around the back.  More line drives than flyballs and groundballs with a peak exit velocity of 84 MPH via Trackman. High sweet spot and line drive percentages produced off a swing with plus rotational acceleration and on-plane efficiency via blast.

Defensively: Starts with a low to the ground setup; uses prep hop while displaying fluid actions to the baseball. Hands are out in front while funneling to the hip before transfer. Short take back from a standard 3/4 arm slot.   INF - 89 MPH. Quiet, active footwork creating good angles. Big arm strength across.

Pitching: Uses a glove side setup while using an angled drop step. Belt high leg drive with shoulders above the hips. Has a short stride landing inline with the plate. Moderate arm swing while showing some scap load; standard 3/4 slot. Spins off 1B side with finish. FB: Peak velo of 86 MPH, while sitting 84-86 MPH; plays up in the zone. CB: 71-74 MPH; late action. SL: 76 MPH; lateral action. CH: 80-83 MPH; fading action.  High spin breakers, CB shows elite 2-tier break. SL with plus lateral, heavy CH with run.

 

 

6/14/22

 

Physical: Lean, developing 5-foot-8, 158lb frame; athletic. 7.25 runner in the 60.

Offensively: RHH. Crouched, even stance with the barrel operating attached to the shoulder to begin. Utilized a short leg-lift stride to initiate the swing through a flat, directional path with an active lower-half. Delivered a consistent middle of the field approach during his round and lived on the sweet spot with accurate bat-to-ball skills. Recorded a T80 mph exit velocity via Trackman and projects to gain more strength soon.

Defensively: The middle infielder showed off a hop in the prep-step, beating the ball to the spot with a soft glove hand. Reached back for an 81 mph arm-strength positionally, which carries to the mound with feel on the run.

Pitching: RHP. Compact, faster-paced delivery from the left side of the rubber; closes the gap with intent at 80-82 mph to both sides. Mixed a hard-biting 69-71 mph CB with up to 14 inches HM (2595), adding a killed, fading 70-73 mph CH back the other way.

 

 

2/12/22

 

Physical: Athletic, fluid 5-foot-9, 155lbs with more to come strength wise. 7.24 runner in the 60-yard dash.

Offensively: RHH - Balanced, slightly open stance with the shoulders tilted moderately downward. Utilized a direct lift and replace stride to initiate the swing through a slightly uphill path into the hitting zone. Connected to the ground with good sink in the lower half, really drops the anchor. Fast hands and controlled turns when pitched on the inner half. Recorded an 83 mph bat-exit velocity. 

Defensively: The shortstop featured a hop in the prep step with up tempo, active footwork that kept moving to the target during the entire rep. Goes and attacks at the fielding window, accurate 82 mph arm across the diamond from H ¾ slot. 

Pitching: RHP - Started off of the middle/left side of the rubber, using mature pace to find a balanced stack before driving down the slope. Quick arm with a ceiling for plenty more as he matures. The FB ranged from 80-81 mph from a low release, and filled up the zone (80% zone rate). Mixed a banger CB at 2593rpms and up to 20 inches of sweep. Countered with a killed 70-72 mph CH with significant fade to the arm-side. Stuff works well.
