8/5/18
6-foot, 150-pound. Right-handed hitting middle infield prospect. Linear type approach with a tall setup. Barrel works in and out of the zone creating some loft on the ball. Showed ability to drive the gap. Registered an 89 mph exit velocity. Defensively, shows good actions and range on the infield. Glove works, made strong accurate throws reaching 84 mph across the diamond. Also ran a 4.59 home to first.

Another guy that doesn’t jump off the page measurable wise but can flat out play. We’ve seen Ross three times this summer and all he’s done is produce. Up the middle he has made play after play showing above average angle and ball skills that stay with him on the move. Very sure-handed, reliable defender. At the plate he has a loose, whippy swing with some barrel authority through contact. Squares the ball up often and has displayed gap abilities to pull side. Going to be a good player for someone at the next level.
60-yard dash: 7.17
Infield Velocity: 82
Exit Velocity: 77

 

6/20/18
Not a flashy player but possesses a very solid, well-rounded skill set. At the plate he offers a compact swing with twitch through the zone. Ball comes off well, showing more pop than frame would suggest. An all fields hitter that can produce regular backspin. In the infield he shows a middle skill set that leans towards second base at the next level. Ability shows more in game than showcase.

5/29/18
A right-handed hitter that in an athletic setup. Creates energy with lower through a leg kick and well timed weight shift. Hands are quiet prior to accelerating the barrel through the zone on a level path. Shows obvious feel for the barrel, squaring the ball up regularly in BP. Both strength and speed through the zone are above average tools. Solid bat. A well-rounded player that showed an above average skill set in the infield as well. Middle type with athletic actions. Stays fluid and rhythmic through fielding sequence. Mechanically sound, solid defender.

Ran a 7.16 60-yard dash. A solid infielder that has athleticism to his actions. Feet work well and he is able to maintain momentum through fielding into his throws. Glove skills are above average and remain outside his funnel. Actions are athletic, playing with good tempo/rhythm. Tossed it across the diamond with 77 mph arm strength. A righty swinger that starts in an athletic setup. Goes with a leg kick to initiate pre launch movement. Hands stay at launch throughout loading sequence. Swing is compact as the barrel travels through the zone on a level path. A line drive hitter who projects for much more pop as he adds strength to his athletic frame. Registered an exit velocity of 82 mph.
