Notes

Comments

6/20/23

Physical: 5-8, 152 pounds; Proportional, slight build. 7.56 runner in the 60.

Offensively: RHH. Even setup, with feet just outside his shoulders; has a pre-pitch bat waggle. Short take back with the hands with a toe-tap for timing. Stays behind the ball while showing an aggressive lower half. Showed a downward swing path with a two handed finish.  More flyballs than line drives and groundballs with a peak exit velocity of 87 MPH via Trackman.

Defensively: Starts with an upright /tall setup; uses prep step while showing active feet. Hands are out in front with a clean transfer. Moderate arm circle while using various arm slots.   INF - 80 MPH.  Showed plenty of carry of throws across the infield.

3/11/23

Physical: Strong, athletic 5-foot-8, 152-pound frame. 4.08 runner in the 30YD.

Offensively: RHH. Slightly bent, even stance, back-loaded on the rear hip. Utilized a toe-tap stride to initiate his swing through an uphill, twitchy path into the hitting zone. A/AVG hand-speed that matched plane for a T84MPH EV and 42% sweet spot rate. Middle of the field approach.

Defensively: The shortstop displayed quick feet with ability to range in either direction. Maintained a low/wide setup and glove-tap after the funnel inward for an 81MPH INF arm (H ¾).

6/21/22

Physical: Athletic, compact 5-foot-6, 130lb frame. 7.89 runner in the 60-yard dash.

Offensively: RHH. Wider, comfortable stance with quiet hands to start. Utilized a toe-tap stride/knee-knock combo to initiate the swing through a flat path with upper-half effort into the hitting zone. Recorded a T69 mph exit velocity, shifting weight towards a stiff lead-leg with some variation in the head. Posted a 44% fly ball rate during a lofty approach.

Defensively: The primary shortstop worked around the ball with proper angles, fielding out in front of his body using a soft glove-hand. Deep funnel inward and average release time from a ¾ slot across the dirt (61 mph arm-strength).

3/12/22

Physical: Lean, developing 5-foot-6, 130lb frame. 8.14 runner in the 60-yard dash.

Offensively: RHH. Wide, crouched stance, as the hands operated in rhythm off the shoulder. Utilized a directional lift and replace stride to initiate a quick swing through a flat path into the hitting zone. Two-handed finish promotes an accurate barrel and line drives towards the middle of the field. Contact hitter, matched plane, T73 mph bat-exit velocity. 

Defensively: The shortstop displayed range in either direction, arriving on time to the ball at the window. Accurate, soft glove hand and 72 mph arm-strength across the diamond. Rounded on routes at times.

Pitching: RHP - Slower, momentum gaining pace to the stack; repeated actions and delivered 71-72 mph FB. Mixed mid-to-upper 56-57 mph CB on 11/5 tilt.
