It was an impressive look at Woods in the box this weekend. Obvious physicality in the box at 5-foot-11, 195-pounds with real strength in the frame. Woods lived on the barrel for “9th inning” with a plethora of 90 + EV knocks. Subtle momentum shift through impact produces consistent loud exits. Explosive hands in-zone and generates a ton of strength from the ground-up with a present feel for the barrel in a linear path. Intriguing 2028 name to follow at GPA.
