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.
SS, Parker Roop, Normal University, 2027 Uncommitted. Started at short and hit in the leadoff position. Roop showed flashes of potential as he went 1-for-3 with a walk. High-waisted, athletic 6-foot, 155-pound frame with room to fill out. The left-handed hitter swings from an upright, wide stance with knees slightly bent. Showed bat-to-ball abilities with a direct bat path. Shined defensively at short as a smooth operator with plenty of arm strength.
INF/RHP Parker Roop (Normal University, 2027) is a definite name to follow moving forward. He has a projectable frame you can dream on, listed at 6-foot, 155-pounds with long levers and a wiry build. At the plate, the left-handed hitter is able to work on-plane with a longer path through the zone, favoring his pull-side but showing big upside with a 92 mph max EV. Roop then wrapped up his debut showing with an impressive ‘pen. He is an athletic mover down the mound with a loose/quick arm. His fastball showed true two-seam action (avg. 16.5” HM) at 80-82 mph (T83), with more to come in the future. He had feel for his curveball at 70-73 mph that played with quality action and shape. Roop threw his changeup with intent at 72-76 mph playing with fade, displaying out-pitch potential for the future.
Positional Profile: SS/RHP
Body: 6-1, 155 pounds. Trim, high-waisted build with room for added strength in the future.
Hit: LHH. Wide base, toe-taps into a long stride. Rhythm, loose hands, flat path, pull-side approach. 70 mph bat speed with 7g of rotational acceleration.
Power: 92 mph max exit velocity (84.4 avg.); 319-foot max batted distance.
Arm: RH. INF - 76 mph. Quick/compact arm action, ¾ slot.
Defense: Hands work, gets around the ball, moves well laterally, athletic footwork.
Athletic Testing: 7.42 runner in the 60-yard dash; 22.90-inch max vertical jump.
Vizual Edge: 70.21 Edge Score.
Positional Profile: SS/RHP
Body: 6-1, 155 pounds. Trim, high-waisted build with potential for added strength.
Delivery: Smooth and easy mover with a high leg lift and tuck; employs a drop-and-drive technique.
Arm Action: RH. Compact and quick arm from a ¾ slot.
FB: T83, 80-83 mph. Clean release with slight arm-side run. T2125, 2002 average rpm.
CB: 71-73 mph. 11/5 shape with depth. T2069, 1993 average rpm.
CH: 72-75 mph. Plays low with some fade. T1744, 1666 average rpm.
Portraying a lean 5-foot-11, 140-pound frame with room for growth, Roop shoved on the mound for K’s Rhinos. The righty threw for 3.1 innings, not giving up any runs and only two hits. Roop is tall on the mound and possesses a medium leg kick with a long stride, finishing with most of his weight over his front foot. He has a low 3/4 arm slot and displays a running 76-78 mph fastball with a sharp 66-69 mph slider.
