Courtland
McDonald

The 5-foot 8- 165 pound Outfielder, may be a little undersized but is not lacking in strength. One of the most put together players that attended our showcase. It is very obvious that this compact athlete spends his spare time playing football. McDonald tested well running a 6.74 in the 60, he threw 85 mph from the outfield and registered an 88 mph during the exit velocity testing. Defensively he has good instincts and an accurate arm. He needs to clean up some footwork to get rid of the ball more efficiently. Offensively he starts from an open stance, he dives back in over the plate. This causes him to get around balls due to swinging around his front hip, as the swing progresses his balance is pulled backwards. He has success with balls on the outer third. If he can get his lower half cleaned up he will be a more consistent hitter.
