Positional Profile: C
Body: 5-8, 175 lbs. Medium build with some strength in the frame.
Hit: Open in stance with a slight crouch. Rhythm in hands as he loads. Simple forward stride as he internally rotates. Bat works into a solid early connection position and works into a flatter stroke (82% on plane efficiency). Average bat speed. Balanced with a higher hand finish.
Power: 85 max exit velo and 225 max distance. Current singles hitter. 19.2 gs max rotational acceleration shows potential for decent power with bat speed increases.
Defense: One of the best receivers at the event. Mixed up crouches and was especially good at framing the low ball. Got thumb under and worked up. Decent feet during throwdowns but arm was inconsistent. Shorter arm that works over the top but at times late. â…— accurate throwdowns.
Run: 7.77 laser timed 60.
Monterey Bay Hitting Update: Slightly open, even hands stay tight through swing; utilizes foot lift to find timing and slight load of hands. Works direct to the baseball with a compact swing showing high finish; barrel has growing quickness and able to adjust to pitches showing strength to the middle. Good looking young swing.
