9/30/23

Clayton Fontenot, St. Michael The Archangel (LA), 2027
Positional Profile: OF/LHP Former Jr. Future Gamer.
Body: 5-10, 155-pounds. Athletic.
Hit: LHH. Slightly wider and athletic set-up with hands held abnove shoulder height, uses a simple load and stride. Simple swing, repeats well, drives the bat head down to contact and stays flat through extension finishing with two hands. Good bat to ball skills, more of a contact hitter right now, but can hit the ball to all fields, stays mostly on a line or hard on the ground to use his speed.
Power: 90 max exit velocity, averaged 80.8 mph. 235' max distance.
Arm: LH. OF-84 mph. Long, loose arm swing with a 3/4 release.
Defense: Good athlete, receives the ball out front with one and two hands off the middle to right side of his body, showed increased arm strength from our last look at him, gets good jumps and reads off the bat and has a chance to stick in CF.
ATH: 6.86 runner in the 60. 1.67 and 3.83 in the 10 and 30 yard splits.
