Unsigned Senior Games
Watermolen is 5-10 with a strong athletic frame that some projection left to it. He hits from the right side from a slightly open balanced athletic stance, strides in place, short load down and back. Hips rotate completely and he maintains some lower half balance. Hands stay inside, short and quick to the ball, slightly uphill line drive swing path, showed a good approach working primarily up the middle with some extra-base power to his pull side, exit velocity was 79. Behind the plate, clean exchange, throws from a three-quarters arm slot, position velocity was 77 and pop times 1.95-2.09. Showed some accuracy on his throws. Ran a 7.35 60 yard dash.
Preseason All-State III
Watermolen is 5-10 with a strong athletic frame that has some projection left to it. He hits from the right side from a relaxed athletic stance, short stride on line, smooth load back. Hips rotate completely with some violence and he maintains good lower half balance. Hands stay inside, short and quick to the ball, slightly uphill swing with strength at contact and extension through the ball, exit velocity was 93. Behind the plate, clean exchange, throws from a three-quarters arm slot, position velocity was 78 and pop times 1.99-2.08. Ran a 7.45 60 yard dash.
Preseason All State I
Strong physical frame at 5-foot-10, 185-pounds. Athletic setup hitting from the right side with a rhythmic knee to knee load landing slightly closed. Hands load back with an arm bar and bat wraps at separation. Showed hand speed and strength getting through the zone quickly with uphill tilt at finish. Lower half gets through with some violence and showed potential power. Exit velocity was 81 mph. Home-1st time was 4.50. Feet get in line for the throw with a clean exchange. Arm action is short and whippy throwing from a high three-quarter arm slot at 73 mph. Pop times ranged from 2.09-2.17.
Fall Invite
Strong physical frame. Gets great separation and usage of the lower half first. Balanced upright finish. Barrel has some explosion through the zone with good hand and wrist strength. In the outfield Thomas fields off the glove side well and utilizes his physical strength into the throw. Behind the dish he transfers the ball to hand quickly and body stays in the throwing lane. Could improve by firming the front leg up on foot strike to allow the backside to finish the throw.
