Positional Profile: C/RHP Trip is a young player who has plenty of time to develop and hone in on his skills behind the plate and with the bat. With time and work he has the potential to grow into a solid player.
Body: 5-10, 144-pounds. Slim wirey frame that will continue to fill out as he grows into it and spends time in the weight room.
Hit: RHH. Straight stance with feet set wide. Slight bend in the legs, hands set above the back shoulder behind the ear. Barrel laid back vertically towards ground. Slight load on the backside with toe tap. Drops hands as he loads creating long bat path with a heavy uppercut through the zone. 61.4 mph bat speed with 5 G's of rotational acceleration.
Power: 82 max exit velocity, averaged 71.4 mph. 291' max distance. Trip is a heavy pullside hitter. Needs work on his balance in the box and rotating through the pitch better. Still young, has the potential to drive the ball with some cleaning up of the mechanics.
Arm: RH. C-68 mph. Loose arm with below avg strength. Inconsistent arm action, but did show a short quick arm on a few throws.
Defense: 2.15-2.25 pop times. Smooth with his transfer from mit to hand. Needs work on staying on line with the feet when coming up out of his secondary position to throw. This will help his ball flight path and repeatability of the arm. Decent glovework getting the ball into the zone. Needs to works on a softer glove and coming up through the ball.
ATH: 7.57 runner in the 60. 1.79 and 4.18 in the 10 and 30 yard splits. Average speed for his age. Runs tall with decent downhill momentum through the first 30 yds. 23.20 max vertical.
