6/18/14 - Emerson is a thin, athletic 5-foot-11, 145-pound right-hand hitting infielder.  At shortstop he showed sure hands and made mostly accurate throws from a loose three-quarters throwing motion.  His top throwing velocity was clocked at 69 mph.  During batting practice he showed a tall, athletic set-up.  He uses a mini-leg kick stride and short backward hand load.  He has loose hands, rhythm and maintains balance throughout.  His exit velocity high was clocked at 73 mph.  Emerson ran a 4.53 home-to-1B from the right side.  He’s trending up – improving in every category since last fall – and is significantly taller.  As he gains strength and size his number will continue to climb.
10/19/13 - The youngest player in the camp, Emerson is a switch-hitting 5-foot-10, 140-pound middle-infielder who can also play the outfield.  Despite being younger and smaller than the other campers, Emerson held his own and never backed down.  At the plate he has a balanced set-up and uses a leg-kick.  He’s a slap-type hitter that drags his bat a little right now – something that will get better with strength.  His exit velocity was timed at 70 mph.  His at bats in the game were very competitive, reaching base in 5 out of 7 plate appearances with 2 hits and 3 walks.  Emerson’s home to 1B time was 4.75.  During infield drills he showed average footwork and he throws with a long-ish arm path but he got after it and made a number of solid plays – good actions and athleticism are in there, he just needs time to develop physically.  His throws from shortstop were clocked at 68.  We look forward to following Emerson the next several years.
