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.
INF/RHP Ethan Killion (New Trier, 2028) stands in a strong 5-foot-10, 176-pound frame, and showed some intrigue throughout his entire workout last Saturday. At the plate, the right-handed hitter showed some strength at impact with a peak EV of 96 mph, also lifting his furthest ball 348’. Killion showed well defensively also. He presents the glove, showed some range playing up the middle, and also displayed a clean double play turn. His arm played strong as well, with his best bullet reaching 86 mph. Killion later jumped on the mound and showed a fastball with life, sitting 84-86 mph. He turned to a slider with 10/4 shape and slight depth, a changeup in the low-80s, and a cutter that sat 82-84 mph with occasional cut.
Positional Profile: 3B/RHP
Body: 5-11, 176 pounds. Athletic, high-waisted build.
Hit: RHH. Tall, narrow setup, high leg lift with short stride. Simple swing, flatter path, intent to lift at times. 71.2 mph bat speed with 8g of rotational acceleration.
Power: 96 mph max exit velocity (86.1 avg.).
Arm: RH. INF - 86 mph. Short, compact arm action, high ¾ slot.
Defense: Presents the glove, gets around the ball, short shuffle step to target, has some range up the middle, clean double play turn.
Athletic Testing: 7.47 runner in the 60-yard dash; 23.70-inch max vertical jump.
Vizual Edge: 80.71 Edge Score.
Positional Profile: 3B/RHP
Body: 5-11, 176-pounds. Athletic, high-waisted build.
Delivery: Rotational, short rocker, quick lift and go. Slight drop and drive type.
Arm Action: RH. Long drawing arm action, high ¾ slot.
FB: T86, 84-86 mph. Straight fastball. T2188, 2047 average rpm.
SL: 74-77 mph. 10/4 shape, slight depth. T2021, 1991 average rpm.
CH: 81-82 mph. Fading action, slight tumble. T1818, 1779 average rpm.
CUT: 82-84 mph. Shows occasional cut.
Killion would show a quality two-way profile Saturday, performing well both at the plate and on the mound for his Top Tier squad. On the bump, the right-handed pitcher worked off his fastball, which sat 77-80 mph, coming from a high 3/4s arm slot. An athletic mover down the mound, Killion would throw three innings of quality baseball, striking out five while allowing no earned runs. At the plate, the right-handed hitter would go 1-for-3 with an RBI. In setup, the New Trier product presents a wider, athletic base with a short stride while looking to use the whole field. Projectable 5-foot-11, 160-pound frame with some present strength.
Positional Profile: 3B
Body: 5-11, 160-pounds. Well-proportioned frame.
Hit: RHH. Wide base, short stride, keeps his weight in his legs. Creates bat-speed through the zone, on the barrel with intent to the whole field, creates extension through the zone.
Power: 91 max exit velocity, averaged 83.7 mph. 265’ max distance.
Arm: RH. INF - 77 mph. Short, compact arm action, 3/4 slot.
Defense: Plays low to the ground with some bounce, steady hands, fluid footwork, clean and quick transfer.
Run: 7.56 runner in the 60.
Positional Profile: RHP
Delivery: Athletic, high leg lift, tall/fall delivery, works in-line toward the plate, gets hip-to-shoulder separation.
Arm Action: RH. Shorter arm path with ease, high 3/4 slot.
FB: T80, 77-80 mph. Natural cut and firm out of the hand. T2022, 1963 average rpm.
CB: 63-65 mph. 11/5 shape, maintains fastball arm slot. T1628, 1544 average rpm.
CH: 73-75 mph. Creates some fade and sink. T1675, 1632 average rpm.
