Grip Strgth (LH)
Grip strength is a measure of a players bat control and ability to transfer power and speed during impact, measured in pounds of force generated; collected with elbow bent at 90 degrees.
Grip Strgth (RH)
Grip strength is a measure of a players bat control and ability to transfer power and speed during impact, measured in pounds of force generated; collected with elbow bent at 90 degrees.
Positional Profile: RHP/OF Physical hitter with an efficient, even barrel plane and present bat lag through the load.
Body: 6-2, 196-pounds. Firm, athletic frame with present strength throughout.
Hit: RHH. Wide lower half with a slight knee bend. Upper half is tight with the back elbow flared towards the catcher. Bat angled towards the third base foul line. Medium leg lift stride to initiate the load into the rear leg with the hands casting heavily outward to initiate the load. Hips and upper half stay mostly in sync. Very even barrel plane throughout with an efficient, easy swing. Upper half turns well for power with bat lag present. 80 mph bat speed with 8 G's of rotational acceleration.
Power: 102 max exit velocity, averaged 95.1 mph. 376' max distance.
Arm: RH.
ATH: 6.34 runner in the 60. 1.50 and 3.51 in the 10 and 30 yard splits.
Physical: 5-11, 155 pounds; Long/lean frame. Projectable build w/ room to fill/add. Standout swift athletic testing metrics.
Offensively: RHH. Wider balanced stance. Simple trigger. Small negative move with lower half. Hands takeback and create quality separation. Above avg. bat/hand speed for level. Clean/connected bat path. Balanced. Trouble with timing at times catching it too deep which caused high % GBs. When on-time, he was pounding the LC gap with LDs.
Defensively: OF- 82 MPH. Athletic actions in the OF. Aggressive approach. Comes in hard with momentum fielding it out front and clean. Quick exchange and transitions seamlessly into throwing motion. 4/5 accurate on a line throws from the OF. Loose arm action that works quick to release.
Pitching: Efficient mechanics. Side steps into a upper-chest knee lift. Smaller driveleg sit but creates quality drift/momentum down the mound. Lower half works in-line. Decent block. More north/south plane of rotation. Clean/continuous AA that works into quality layback and to a H 3/4 slot. Advanced arm speed. FB worked up to 84 showing carry shape (20.7 avg. IVB). CH at 72-74 showed straight shape, similar movement profile off FB. CT at 70-71 killed some IVB off FB and added about 3 inches of lateral cut with quality feel in-zone for it (50%).
