Notes

Comments

9/25/20

Physical: Long and lean 6-foot-4, 167-pound frame with noticeable projectability / athleticism throughout the movements. Ohio Wesleyan commit. 6.98 runner in the 60-yard dash. 

Offensively: Switch hitter. Mirrors from both sides of the plate with more power as a RHH. Open, slightly bent stance with the hands starting high at the shoulder with minor rhythm in the setup. Utilized a toe-tap stride to initiate a flat barrel path from the left side and slightly uphill path as a RHH getting well through extension. Handsy overall from the left side at times and could get negative on the attack angle. Stayed in the legs better getting natural backspin to all fields as a righty and hammered pitches out over the plate using his long levers. Recorded a peak bat-exit velocity of 94 mph per Trackman Baseball with a top batted ball distance of 324 feet during batting practice. A 23.90 max hand speed according to Blast Motion will certainly play and emphasizes a short time to contact in the box. 

Defensively: The primary outfielder featured active feet with high level momentum towards the target, spring-loaded first step and arrived on time while fielding off of the left side of his body. Accurate, high ¾ arm-slot with carry towards the plate (medium-full arm circle). Rangy actions in either direction with ability to stay behind balls hit in the air. OF - 83 mph


7/15/20

Physical: Lengthy, projectable 6-foot-4, 167-pound frame with advanced feel for his body and ability to add strength onto a lean build. 7.39 runner in the 60-yard dash.

Offensively: RHH. Wide, slightly open stance with the weight slightly shifted towards the backside as the hands started at the shoulder in the setup. Utilized a toe-tap stride in order to initiate a whippy and violent, slightly uphill barrel path into the hitting zone. Coupled long levers with a short and efficient bat path to the baseball, a combination that yielded plenty of extra base hit projection moving forward. The hands played with electricity into the zone registering a 23.40 mph max hand speed according to Blast Motion - a measurable that stands out amongst his peers. Recorded a top bat-exit velocity of 89 mph per Trackman Baseball with a peak batted ball distance of 323 feet. 

Defensively: The primary outfielder featured active footwork, beating the ball to the spot with a quick first step and long strides in space, approached the ball with downhill momentum while fielding off of the left side of the body, the arm was long and accurate out of a high ¾ slot, full arm swing. OF - 79 mph


6/15/20

Physical: Lean and athletic, 6-foot-4, 167-pound frame with plenty of projectability in the build. 7.10 runner in the 60-yard dash. 

Offensively: RHH. Tall, open stance with the hands using rhythm on the shoulder at the ear upon setup. Utilized a toe tap stride with hip glide towards contact coupled with a backwards hand load to initiate his swing. Hit into a stiff front side allowing for a flat barrel path to unleash through the hitting zone. The barrel whipped through contact towards extension with advanced feel for the hands in the box. Was able to shoot offspeed pitches the other way in game action and put up a multitude of quality at bats. Recorded an impressive 94 mph bat-exit velocity per Trackman Baseball with a max of 67 mph barrel speed per Blast Motion.

Defensively: The primary outfielder showcased long, and fluid movements in the approach while fielding the ball repeatedly off the front of his left foot. Got around the ball with regularity in the gaps as he covered plenty of ground with solid straight line speed. Repeatable transfers generated accurate throws out of a long, high ¾ slot with whip on the front side. OF - 80 mph.

2/22/20

Demonstrated a long and lean 6-foot-4, 167-pound frame with athleticism in his actions and wiry strength. The right-handed hitter begins with an open stance utilizing a toe-tap stride to initiate his swing. Generated easy pull side juice with natural lift through a slightly uphill barrel path allowing for backspin to all fields. Showcased feel for his hands during batting practice while hitting pitches in different zones where they were pitched, while recording an 82 mph bat-exit velocity. Ran a 7.01 60-yard dash showing off the athleticism in his movements. Displayed long, fluid actions during defensive evaluations allowing for active footwork to play through the ball with regularity yielding accurate 80 mph arm-strength out of a long, high ¾ arm-slot.
