Carter
Sorensen

Wiry, athletic 5-foot-9 165 pound MIF that hits from the right side. Ran a 6.88 60 on the day and has been as quick as 6.83. Offensively- Weight preloaded on back side with some pre-pitch bat waggle; explosive lower half with some tilt to his swing; consistent hard contact showing barrel control. Extra base threat if he can consistently find the gaps. Defensively- Controlled approach at SS with average but accurate arm; could be more aggressive to and through the ball. Should be able to handle either side of the second base bag or possible OF move at the next level due to foot speed and offensive potential. 

June 25-27, 2018 (NYS Games) 

60 Yard Dash: 7.14
Exit Velocity: 88
Positional Arm: 73

Sorensen ran a 6.83-60, an improvement from February.  Arm Strength measured at 79-MPH from the infield, an improvement of 3-MPH.  

Sorensen checks in at 5-foot-8, 150 pounds with athletic, fast twitch actions. He ran a 7.62 60.  Offensively- At the plate Sorensen sets up narrow and slightly open with hands just off back shoulder; barrel lift and short load back, coupled with a short stride/leg kick back to even for timing. Aggressive yet balanced through the lower half; moderate swing path to the ball with a repetitive finish. Line drive/flyball results with a propensity for the left center gap. Exit velocity peaked at 78 MPH.  Defensively- Gliding actions when moving laterally; stays athletic; slight hesitation after transfer into throwing motion. Can accelerate and cover ground when needed. Middle infield projection over the long term.  INF velocity was 73 MPH across the diamond. Pitching-  On the mound Sorensen starts to the far glove side using a short drop step to a balance point just above the belt. Moderate length to his arm action, working through a ¾ arm slot. FB sat 75-77 MPH with life and little restriction. CB at times had late action with 1-to-7 shape, 62-65 MPH. A few early rollers but even then the break was substantial enough to get awkward swings. High ceiling on both sides of the ball.
