5-foot-9,180-pound, solid, strong, athletic frame. A right-handed hitting third baseman. At the plate, even fee at shoulder width, hands are loose, held higher, relaxed with pre-pitch movement to them. The swing is short to contact, hands are inside the baseball, middle to opposite field approach, spraying line drives all over the yard. The lower half is under control, small pick up and put down, hands are back on foot strike. Defensively, shows super soft hands, is balanced, receives baseball out front and low to the ground. The hands and feet work together, move throughout. The arm was clocked at 79 mph across the diamond, plenty of strength to stick on the left side. The double play ball starts are smooth, moves well to the glove side.  Will be a good one at the next level.

Arm Velocity: 79 mph

Sixty-Yard Dash: 7.78

The 5-foot-9, 180- pound right-handed hitting middle infielder really showed well.  This is an athletic defender in the middle of the field. The feet are soft and active, which allow him to get into a good fielding position. The glove is soft and showed the ability to make hop adjustments with the backhand.  Transitioned nicely through the ball into the throwing position.  The arm works from a low arm slot and registered at 72 mph across the diamond.  Raising the slot should increase the velocity, as the arm speed is there.  At the plate, the tee exit velocity was 88 mph. The initial set up is balanced  the hands are in a good strong position.  The take back with the hands is quiet and the stride is short.  This creates a nice launch position to a bat path that is level and quick to contact.  This is an athletic young infielder that can really defend!  There’s a ton of upside and room for growth on both sides of the ball.

Tee Exit Velocity- 88 mph

5-foot-9, 170-pound right-handed hitting middle infielder. Had an excellent showing at the event. Showed a good feel for the game and displayed competitive at bats. Ran a 4.56 down the line on his dig to first base. The glove is very good in the field, and the feet work well through the ball. Can handle the pivot,  he could move around and play all 3 spots. Threw 73 mph across the diamond. The bat has a tee exit velocity 79 mph. The setup is even in base, the front foot steps into the swing as its produced. The path is down and through, could be flattened a bit for plate coverage. The hands work freely and he showed an idea of a solid approach to using the whole field. Solid prospect.

5-foot-9, 165-pound right-handed hitting infielder. Threw 72 mph during the infield portion of the workout, the glove work freely and he moves his feet well to the ball. The arm works short and clean, he stays low through the process. The bat has a tee exit velocity of 77 mph. The stance is wide, front foot open to begin. The back elbow is set high. The swing path is clean, flat and simple to contact. Solid showing during the batting practice as he made hard contact throughout. Solid player.

5-foot-7, 145-pound right-handed hitting infielder. Threw 69 mph across the diamond with accuracy as the footwork to and through the ball needs to continue to develop. Needs to shorten up the throwing path and not wind up to throw across, physical strength and maturity will help in this case. Ran a 4.91 down the line on his dig to first base. Tee exit velocity of 80 mph. Hits out of a semi-wide set up, small pick up and put down as the ball approaches. Uses a minimal hand load to get separation and the swing is simple to the ball. Stays on the ball at contact. The bottom half is under control throughout the swing.
