Matthew Clayton: 3B/RHP, (2025) Dexter, MI. 5-foot-11, 185-pound. (64.7 mph bat speed average). (18.8 mph hand speed average). Began in a balanced wide stance with a controlled load, then used a toe tap stride. Found lots of barrels with a lot of loud contact. Solid while in the infield, recorded position velocities up to 76 mph; has a natural exchange, developing consistent hands, and consistent developing feet. Fields the ball out front, movements laterally were average. Solid on the mound, showed good arm speed, also used a ¾ arm angle with a consistent arm action. Drop-and-drive type pitcher and shows some effort. Balance point is tall with an even shoulders during delivery. Lands square with an athletic finish. (Max spin 1969; Avg 1824).
