Grady

5.16.15 - 6-foot, 180-pound athletic, right-handed hitting shortstop. Impressed defensively with soft hands fielding the baseball, short, quick high ¾ arm slot, good carry on throws across the diamond. Did a good job on body control/run through ball in game. Offensively, hits from a balanced setup, short stride, strides slightly open towards shortstop at times. Two-RBI line drive single to left in last at bat that was washed out due to rain. Short level bat path, strength to swing (87 mph exit velocity last spring). Good athlete in the middle of the diamond (7.12 runner), who has also thrown 85 mph across the diamond. Grady is currently ranked No. 62 in IL and will attend Illinois State next fall.

6/19/14 - 6-foot, 185-pound right-handed hitting middle infielder impressed during on field batting practice back spinning line drives from a wide balanced setup with a short stride and short level bat path producing exit velocity up to 87 mph.  Defensively, showed quality middle infield actions playing through the baseball with soft hands.  Threw 85 across the diamond from long, loose high ¾ arm action, winding up at times.  Ran a 7.12 60.

7.17.13 - Athletically built 6-foot, 178-pound two-way player. Graded out as top infield prospect at event. Shows advanced plate approach and bat speed. Quiet, repeatable swing, aggressive approach, maintains excellent balance throughout, ball jumps with backspin and carry, registered event-best 88-mph exit speed. Defensively, shows arm strength (event-best 82 mph) and soft hands. Long arm action, accurate throws, takes solid routes to ball. May project as third baseman at next level; 7.16 runner. On the mound, commands three pitches for strikes. Athletic delivery, repeats well, high ¾ arm slot, short arm action. Fastball sat 81-82 mph; has advanced feel for changeup, 73-76 mph with some arm-side sink.
