2/14/21

Positional Profile: SS

Body: 5-foot-10, 155-pound lean and athletic frame with room for added strength and size.

Hit: RHH.  At the plate used both a two-tap and traditional stride.  Hand set is low and lays the bat horizontally flat.  Gets into the lower half with a big load.  Level bat path and does a good job of using the whole field.  Hand strength and bat speed are both developing tools.

Power: 74 mph exit velocity from the tee. 

Arm: RH. INF-80 mph.  High ¾ arm slot with whippy/quick arm action.  

Defense: In the infield showed good active feet and good routes to the ball.  Shows enough athleticism to get to most balls while maintaining good rhythm.  Exchanges are clean and quick.  Shows a feel for some glove action and fielding the ball out in front. 

Run: 4.56 runner from home to first.
