The potential future Mater Dei Monarch baseball product Hendon put together an interesting day on what likely one day will be his varsity baseball field. Checking in with a solid present 6'1 177.9 lbs. frame and quality present athletic ability including a 7.69 60 yard time with a high quality foundation at a premium defensive position there was plenty to like about this Orange County Rising Stars product. Hendon showed an aggressive high intent RH swing with an approach that looked to elevate the baseball with authority and when he connected on the barrel produced strong present Trackman data including: 90.2 MPH max EV, 84 MPH avg EV, 341' max distance on a homer to LF with a 45% sweet spot rate and 9% hard hit rate. He added to his overall profile by showing his potential behind the plate with a solid showing during bullpen work with a quality receive and during the defensive workout posting a 70 MPH C arm velocity with pop times in the 2.14-2.26 range showing online accuracy, but can improve the carry on his throws as he continues to mature.
