Scouting Report
6/12/19
5’9 145-pound frame. Had extra base hits from both sides of the plate in game play. From the right side, which is the stronger of the to, he starts with a square stance with good rhythm in his hands. Hands set just above shoulder, keeping them back as he strides forward. Using a small leg kick to load into his back side. Middle approach with good balance. From the left side starts slightly open using a small leg kick to get back square in his stride. Exit velo at 84 MPH. Active feet in the infield. Quick twitch in all movements, including quick first step. Uses two hands to field the baseball, bringing it to center after fielding it. Arm strength at 83 MPH and will stay in the middle infield. 6.9 60.

5-foot-9, 142-pound frame. Showed some of the top infield actions at the event, regardless of class. He does an outstanding job playing underneath the baseball with soft hands and generates impressive carry across the diamond. 81 mph from SS. Oster really fights to stay inside the baseball on offense (81 mph exit velocity) and could benefit from letting the barrel work and making more contact out front to take advantage of his fast twitch ability. Ran 7.09 60-yard dash.

Established himself at the PBR Future Games as a gamer and all around solid player in many different aspects.From a 5-foot-9 150-pound frame, Oster has above average athleticism with quick twitch movements. Plenty of room to add strength in frame. Currently hitting from a tall, narrow base into a falling heel plant. Backspins baseballs with consistent line drive contact from slightly downward swing plane. Fields balls cleanly with rhythm & two hands in center of his body. Carry across the diamond at 84 mph. Ran a 6.9 60 yard dash and plays the game with high energy. Under the radar, high academic (3.98 GPA) prospect that should be a good follow going forward as he matures more physically.
