Body: 6-3, 170-pounds. High waisted build that is long/lean. Lots of room to add muscle as he continues to grow.
Delivery: Starts in the stretch, hands at letter height. Leg lift shows some rear leg activation into a swinging stride. Arm gets into go position at lauch into an athletic finish.
Arm Action: RH. Upon glove break comes up towards ear, arm turns well and comes through with high arm slot.
FB: T72, 70-72 mph. Good vertical break is high beneficial to the FB that showed varied control. Can come off with a tricky plane towards hitters. T2009, 1817 average rpm.
CB: 61-62 mph. 1/6 movement that can occasionally back up. More armspeed will increase effectiveness T1813, 1781 average rpm.
CH: 69-70 mph. Good downward movement that can be effective off of fastball. T1644, 1507 average rpm.
ATH: 4.31 in the30 yard split.
Positional Profile: RHP/OF
Body: 6-3, 170-pounds. High waisted build that is long/lean. Lots of room to add muscle as he continues to grow.
Hit: LHH. Starts with weight 75/25 on back leg hands lower held behind the body. Weight shift onto back leg has hands drop slightly before a small stride forward. During which the front leg braces softly and backside turns behind it. Hands start letter high and sink with load. Bat path is through zone is very verical due to starting position. Back elbow turns well, but barred front arm limits adjustability. Good contact to pull side when ontime, smaller more controlled movements will lead to better more consistent contact. 57 mph bat speed with 9 G's of rotational acceleration.
Power: 82 max exit velocity, averaged 73.8 mph. 281' max distance.
Arm: RH. OF-71 mph.
ATH: 4.31 in the30 yard split.
Positional Profile: RHP/3B
Body: 6-2, 155-pounds. High waisted, longer and lean build. Plenty of room for additional size and strength.
Delivery: Slow delivery, small leg lift that works back behind his body to create momentum down the mound. Has trouble loading his legs to create force into the ground
Arm Action: RH. Short arm action that comes from a 3/4 arm slot. Arm will get faster if he adds some weight to his frame and cleans up his lower half.
FB: T71, 67-71 mph. FB plays down in the zone, can get good angle to his FB. Be tough for hitters to get on plane T1843, 1756 average rpm.
CB: 55-60 mph. CB has good shape to it, will keep hitters off balance and off his FB; More sweep than downward action T1672, 1603 average rpm.
CH: 63-65 mph. CH will play in the bottom of the zone, getting it in the zone to show a different look will be key. T1642, 1571 average rpm.
