Positional Profile: C/OF Gerken already has an established set of tools, arguably highlighted by his speed. His athletic versatility will see him fight for a spot as a sophomore at MD.
Body: 6-0, 190-pounds. Strong build, good athleticism and speed. Has more room to add weight to the prototypical backstop frame.
Hit: RHH. Wide stance with bat over the shoulder. Slightly open feet with a slight lean back. Toe tap stride, keeping same distance as his stance. Loads down and back. Good lift in swing.
Power: 91 max exit velocity, averaged 85.4 mph. 346' max distance.
Arm: RH. C-77 mph. OF-84 mph. Quick and short arm action from behind the plate. Slight extension of that in OF, on target and on line throws.
Defense: 2.04-2.14 pop times. Quick into his throwing position, moves forward and up simultaneously, covering ground towards target.
ATH: 7.02 runner in the 60. 1.60 and 3.87 in the 10 and 30 yard splits. 25.40 max vertical.
