Cooper Brass had an intriguing workout on Friday, day 1 of the West Coast Games. Smaller build with above average athleticism and quick twitch actions. Have clocked him at a 6.75 60 in past workouts. The bat path is efficient to the baseball and produces line drive contact to all parts of the field. Projects best as a 2B at the top/bottom of the order. In game 1 vs Colorado, Brass turned in 3 quality at bats with hard contact in as many plate appearances. In the leadoff spot, Brass drove a triple to deep right center, where he showed his speed around the bases. In his second at bat he lined out hard to 2B vs a very quality arm. And in his 3rd plate appearance he reached base safely with a knock through the 6-hole. Defense was also on display in this matchup, with several quality plays that showed his range and athleticism. Brass has shown over the last two days that he remains as one of the top uncommitted infielders in the 23 class.
