Notes

7/30/25
Joey Sabato, Orange Lutheran (CA), 2027
Positional Profile: RHP/OF Two-way talent that displays flashes of power up the middle and solid defensive actions in the corner OF.
Body: 6-1, 161-pounds. Lean, well-proportioned build with plenty of room to fill out.
Delivery: Starts with a higher hand set, working quickly down to the stomach before syncing with the front leg. Employs a high leg kick with a slight inward hip turn and sinks moderately into the back knee while using a drop/drive movement down the mound. Shows some feel for blocking, though can get stuck behind the plant leg at times. Works with smooth, controlled tempo throughout the delivery.
Arm Action: RH. Displays a lengthy, but quick arm path, reaching full extension behind the body and creating depth at foot strike. Works from a high 3/4 slot. Quick arm action, but can get to release slightly early. Finishes with some recoil upon release.
FB: T78, 74-77 mph. FB with good ride and substantial arm-side run. Looks to elevate and play to the arm-side edge. T2166, 1955 average rpm.
CB: 64-66 mph. Two-plane action that pairs solid horizontal break with late drop. T1968, 1768 average rpm.
ATH: 7.23 runner in the 60. 1.80 and 4.04 in the 10 and 30 yard splits. 21.50 max vertical.

Positional Profile: RHP/OF Two-way talent that displays flashes of power up the middle and solid defensive actions in the corner OF.
Body: 6-1, 161-pounds. Lean, well-proportioned build with plenty of room to fill out.
Hit: RHH. Sets up narrow and upright with hands at chest, low back elbow, and vertical barrel. Initiates the load by sitting slightly into the back knee as the hands move subtly back. Uses a medium leg kick for timing before striding forward with intent. Quick hip turn as the stride leg lands, with hands following in sync and staying tight to the body. Works on a slightly uphill barrel path that allows the ball to get in the air. Uses an up-the-middle approach with occasional flashes of power, showing room to tap into more with improved lower-half activation. 65.9 mph bat speed with 11 G's of rotational acceleration.
Power: 89 max exit velocity, averaged 77.7 mph. 343' max distance.
Arm: RH. OF-78 mph. Full arm path that works back into a low 3/4 slot. Shows present arm speed with aggressive action. Arm strength projects to improve as frame continues to fill out.
Defense: Uses controlled strides that build momentum while taking clean angles to the ball. Positions himself well with good reads off the bat, projecting as a strong corner OF.
ATH: 7.23 runner in the 60. 1.80 and 4.04 in the 10 and 30 yard splits. 21.50 max vertical.
Vizual Edge: 77.28 Edge Score
