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.
Jetner came up from Santa Barbara HS and was measured at 6'3" 185.4lbs. There's a lot to like about the frame of Welch, I like that he a L/L with room to grow. I saw Jetner down in SoCal at an event and he impressed me from the jump. The arm will continue to get stronger but his bat skills are fun to watch. Had a max EV of 98.8 MPH and an avg EV 90.7 MPH. Max distance was 355 FT, didn't have any problem finding barrels during his BP session. Jetner actually ran a good 60 despite coditions at a 7.06 which was one of the lowest of the event. Once Jetner puts all of his abilities together I think hes going to be a very talented LHH OF who will be asset to any team.
