William Cowles, Notre Dame (CA), 2027
Positional Profile: C/3B
Body: 6-1, 175-pounds.
Hit: RHH. Upright with a slight knee bend; steps towards pitcher for timing while dipping into his backside slightly. Uses above average hand speed to get the barrel on plane while catching the ball out front. Slight uphill path that flashed consistent barrel contact. 63.3 mph bat speed with 4 G's of rotational acceleration.
Power: 87 max exit velocity, averaged 77.8 mph. 316' max distance. Present pull side power with consistent line drives to all fields.
Arm: RH. C-70 mph. INF-69 mph. Arm strength is fair from 3B where the accuracy is better; behind the plate the arm is raw with flashes of being an above average tool.
Defense: 2.04-2.19 pop times. 3B: gathers out front while in position to quickly release the ball; Stays behind it well not allowing ball to get too deep. C: Very athletic mover behind the plate; block/recover is quick and controlled; soft hands when receiving with quick transitions.
ATH: 8.42 runner in the 60. 2.18 and 4.75 in the 10 and 30 yard splits.
