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.
Uncommitted. Started at second base and hit out of the nine-hole for the Tigers. Looks to be a middle infield prospect to follow moving forward. Lean and wiry frame with a high waist, room to add strength. Soft hands with natural actions and footwork on the infield, moves well to each side of his glove, clean glove-to-hand, arm can play from multiple angles with some looseness into his release. The right-handed hitter has an upside right-handed swing with loose levers, will be one to follow closely as he continues to mature and add strength.
