Young Ziegler has all of the right actions. Soft hands in the middle infield. 75mph across the diamond with loose arm that will only get better. Will make a big jump as he matures. Fundamentally sound. At the plate was balance showed level bat and got to extension well. Has potential gap pop. On the mound his arm works well. Loose and quick. Ball was down in the zone with good arm side run. Fastball ranged between 77-79mph on this day but has been better in the past. Breaking ball was a bit erratic but showed flashes of a good one.
2/9/13
Ziegler shows some considerable promise. Only a 2016 graduate Ziegler ran a 7.12 60 and showed quick twitch movements in the field. He worked out in three positions on the day: SS, OF, RHP. Ziegler from the outfield has a long loose arm quick arm action. He showed good arm strength for a player of his age and being only 5-foot-8. At the plate he too had a quiet and simple approach. He starts from a wide and balanced stance and has a smooth load. From there his swing can get a little long if he bars out his front arm but overall he did a good job staying level with his bat path. He did try to use the whole field.
