Campus Series - Marist (July 17, 2018)

6-foot-1, 180-pounds. Lean frame with projection left. Offensively - Narrow, upright stance squared up to the pitcher. Low forward stride and a subtle hand load to create separation. Stays within his legs and rotates hips completely thru contact. Swing shows lift to his pull-side. Hands stay inside of the ball. Exit velocity was 81 MPH. Defensively - Big target at 1B. High ¾ release on throws. Handles footwork around the bag with no issues. Fields ball in center of body and funnels it into his throws quickly. Arm strength was 73 MPH. Pitching - Simple, mechanically sound delivery with a high leg kick. High ¾ release point. Full arm swing after hand break. Works towards target but consistently falls off to 3B side. Long legs create leverage and tough downward angle on all of his offerings. FB sat 78 -79 MPH and topped at 80. Keeps ball down with minimal effort. CB has 2/7 break at 66-68 MPH. CH has late sinking action at 68-71 MPH. Overall, quality 3-pitch mix.
