Scouting Report
7-5-17
5-foot-11,130-pound left hand hitting 3B/RHP who ran a 8.90 60. At the plate he stands tall with a quick load of his hands on the pitch. Weight spins through the zone on contact with a slight uphill path. Bat does a nice job of staying in the zone for an extended time. Exit Velocity was 75 MPH. In the field he is tall and lanky and uses his long legs to close ground on the ball. He showed soft hands and throws from a high 3/4 arm slot. Defensively he is accurate with a 68 MPH arm. On the mound he uses a big rocker step to get his motion going, he gets to balance and falls to the plate. He lands in-line with the plate and delivers from a 3/4 arm slot. Fastball was 66 MPH with good command, his out pitch was a 53-54 MPH knuckle that danced well in the Wyoming breeze.
