5.1.17: On the mound, Roberts throws from a sidearm slot, hinging at the waist to get down low. Drop and drive delivery, short arm action that is loose, normal effort. Lands square with an athletic finish. Fastball had a heavy movement, sink to gloveside and run to armside, sitting 79-80, touching 81. Change-up had heavy run and good armspeed at 72. Sharp 10/4 slider that was 66-69. At the plate, short swing with a good approach, working the middle of the field with some bat speed.
6.30.15 - Athletic frame at 6-foot-1 185-pounds. Hits from a slightly open set up with nice rhythm throughout his swing. Simple load and short stride gets to balanced hitting position. Short swing path with fast bat speed and some extension. Line drive type hitter with power potential. Fluid actions in the field, with a short and quick arm actions throwing from a high ¾ arm angle. Throws were consistent with some carry across the diamond at 80 mph. Soft hands with a clean exchange. Ran a 4.55 home to first and had an exit velocity of 82. Excellent approach and patience at the plate. Solid foundation in this player. Project to be more of a third baseman. A 2017 to keep an eye on.
4.15.15: Roberts has decent actions in the field and a very strong arm from third base. He hits from the left side and his stance is open with a crouch. He has his hands tight to his body and has a good, short swing path to the ball and good plate discipline.
