Cresap catches your eye quickly for his imposing frame standing at what appears to be 6’4 with a 215 lbs. frame which has a solid present build, but has plenty of room for projection to add strength. From there his INF/OF was solid at 1B with good hands and presenting a large target for INF throws with confidence in his footwork around the bag. What stood out the most for me in this first look at the Upland two-way product was his LH bat. It’s an uphill swing with a feel for lofting the baseball to the OF and shows solid present bat speed, but has room to improve as he understands his body better while adding strength. He has posted solid present numbers with a feel to hit, but as he taps into the power potential in his profile the upside of Cresap is highly interesting to me as a possible impact LH hitter in the future.
