Scouting Report
8/4/17 FUTRE GAMES: Trinkle showed high-energy all over the outfield, and with his 6.74-speed, he was able to track balls down with ease while showing off above average hands. At the plate hits from a balanced setup from a slightly crouched position allowing him to load his weight back along with his hands, and then transfer it back forward with quick hands striking the ball, and producing line drives from gap to gap.
6/13/17: Standing 5-foot-8, 155 pounds, the undersized outfielder plays big on the field. Trinkle ran a 6.93 and topped 89 from the outfield. Plays through the ball with athleticism. Clean, long arm swing with a high ¾ release. Moves well and takes good angles. Offensively, uses a leg kick as timing trigger while hands load back. Big movements, at times lot of head movement. Creates a long, slightly uphill path. Loud contact during his round of batting practice. Should continue to fill in physically and add more bat speed. Already has a top exit velocity of 85mph.

6/21/16: The 5 foot 7 148 pound outfielder showcased good actions for his age. Has an athletic, balanced setup at the plate. Bat speed is above average with a short, direct path to the ball. Produced line drives with fluid actions. Defensively, arm action is loose but will need to add strength as he matures. Footwork is fluid with a clean exchange. Throws topped at 80mph from outfield.
