Arakel

3/28/18- Committed to Flagler College

08/26/17 - Arakel is a solid two way player and seemed to be even larger than his 6’2 200lb listing. He ran a 7.53 60. On the mound the righty pounded the strike zone with a fastball/changeup combo. The fastball sat 82-83 topping 85 mph and showed late life down in the zone. His changeup was was 68 mph and showed above depth and proved to be an out pitch for him. Offensively, he showed to have good hands with a line drive approach. Defensively he showed solid arm strength with 83 mph infield velocity and average footwork which should allow him to stick at third.

01/21/17- Stands at 6-foot-1, 187 pounds with a tall build with long legs. Slightly open stance at the plate with a big step for his load. Has a bit of a longer swing, but was able to make contact and drive it to the outfield when he stayed back on the ball during batting practice. Fielded the ball out in front, showed the ability to range backhand during defensive drills at third base. Throws were on line and accurate to the bag topping out at 81 mph. Ran a 7.75 second 60 yard dash time.

8/13/16- 5-foot-11, 165 pounder with a lean, athletic build. Has an early load creating some stiffness in the swing, but the bat is quick through the zone on a consistently level path which created some gap-to-gap power in batting practice. On the mound, he was 80-83 mph with his fastball that had some good run.  His changeup played off his fastball slot which was 69 mph.
