1/26/19
Body Type: 5-foot-11 150-pound prospect.
Swing Mechanics: Starts in a balanced setup and uses a toe tap to initiate load. Has a somewhat long swing and casts his barrel around the zone.
Hit: Decent barrel control.
Power: 78 mph exit velocity.
Offensive Projection: Has a simple line drive approach that would potentially lead to some consistency at the plate. Physical strength development will be crucial to determining future role.
Run: 4.85 home to 1st.
Field: From the outfield Schweder played through the ball well but waited on the ball and could be more aggressive.
Throw: 76 mph from the outfield.
Defensive Projection: Presently projects as a corner outfield type.
1/26/19 Pitching

Curveball: 57-61 mph curveball has slurvy 1/7 action with developing depth.
