Notes

Comments

6/18/19

Body Type: 5-foot 11, 170-pound Strong build
Mechanical/Delivery Notes: The southpaw works through a slow tempo motion into a high efoort movement to the plate. Near ¾ slot with clean arm action and a fluid delivery.
Fastball: 70-73mph. Above average command with some arm side ruin late in the zone. More velo to add as he adds to frame. 1500-1700 rpms with above average spin rate in the low 90s sitting consistency in the low 70’s mph.
Curveball: 60-62 mph. 2/8 movement through the zone. Decent depth with gradual big shape break.
Pitchability: Works in the zone. Strike thrower with some more velo to come down the road. Average for class. 

 

 

Body Type:  5-foot-11, 170-pound athletic frame.

Swing Mechanics:  Small leg kick with a smooth load into his back leg.  Engages his hands well.

Hit:  Level bat path that produces above average bat speed, and has a pull side approach.  Good feel in the box.

Power:  Flashed pop to the pull side with more to come as he develops.

Offensive Projection:  TBD.
Field: Moves well off the bag at first base. Good athlete over there with ball skills.
Throw: Very clean arm with more strength to come.
Defensive Projection: 1B.

2/3/19
Body Type: 5-foot-11, 170-pound physical frame.
Mechanical/Delivery Notes: Uptempo delivery that doesn’t require much effort. Short, clean arm action through a high-¾ slot. Arm/Delivery both work.
Fastball: Mostly true through the zone. Should see more velo as he matures physically with his cleanliness.
Curveball: 1/7 shaped breaking ball with gradual action.
Changeup: Decent sell on the offering. Pitch has a fastball look out of the hand.
Pitchability: In/out command wise. Had flashes of feel and erraticness with all three.


2/3/19
Body Type: 5-foot-11, 170-pound physical frame.
Swing Mechanics: Athletic actions to load that creates balance and energy.
Hit: Balanced swing with easy pop. Very fluid, smooth movements that sync well. Swing offers a bit more strength than speed presently.
Power: 79 mph exit velocity. Present gap abilities with much more to come as bat speed catches up to strength.
Offensive Projection: Middle of Lineup Potential.
Run: 7.74 60-yard dash.
Field: Plays under control/with fluid actions. Ball skills are above average for class. Looks to be a reliable defender. Also worked out at third base where he showed a solid skill set across the board. Slightly more projectable at first base than in the outfield.
Throw: Clean arm with much more strength to come.
Defensive Projection: 1B/Corner Outfield

2/3/18

A lefty bat that uses a leg kick to get things going. Hands move back during stride, creating solid balance and separation. Does a nice job of maintaining barrel momentum through load and into launch. Takes a downhill path to the baseball, showing more strength than speed to his hands. Contact type guy now with more to come as physical maturation takes its course. In the outfield he plays fast, showing quick feet. Transfer is clean and throws showed accuracy. Projects as a corner guy. At first base he gets off the bag with some burst, showing the same quick footwork he displayed in the outfield. Looks to have feel for the spot. Right now skill set at first base is ahead of the outfield.

60-yard dash:8.13

Infield Velocity: 68

Outfield Velocity: 74

Exit Velocity: 77
