Robinson went 7-for-11 on the week, totaling (6) runs scored and (3) RBI. The defending 3A All-State honoree collected a 2B, 3B, and HR for New Prairie last week.
Profile: Stocky, 5-foot-10, 195 pound C/OF, S/R. Bat is the best tool and can do it from both side with bat strength evident in triple digit exits. Present abv avg bat speed (75 mph avg) pairs with a tick above averge run tool (6.94). Shows abv avg arm strength from the crouch (81 mph). Actions - Offense: (LH) - sets up in a slightly crouched, athletic stance before a hovering stride and repeatable load happen. Turns the barrel on-plane with g2g strength and flashes present pull-side power. Similiar swing from the RH side, though less aggressive. Defense: Average receiver, arm has continued to develop working quick, high-motor. Summation: Robinson is a middle of the order bat and that tool leads a bat-first profile. The switch-hitting ability is real and he creates bat speed from both sides with strength and accuracy. He is a solid-enough runner to allow that tool to be impactful offensively, as well. There is some defensive versatility with a chance to stick behind the dish, but if you need a run-producers' bat in this class, you should see Robinson this spring/summer.
Robinson is one of the top uncommitted hitters in the sophomore class and was outstanding in his batting practice rounds at the All-State. A strong, compact, 5-foot-10, 185 pounder with plenty of strength in the lower half - Robinson had some of the loudest Trackman metrics of the day. His exit velocity peaked at 100.9 mph (2nd at event), while averaging 92 mph (event-best), with 76% of his batted balls leaving the bat at 90 mph or better (2nd at event), and his furthest ball traveling 376' (event-best). Robinson shows easy bat strength from both sides with an accurate, heavy barrel. We've seen his offensive prowess show in-game consistently. Robinson is a switch-hitting catcher with a solid run tool (6.91), and the run tool allows for defensive versatility. Reed turned in pops that ranged from 1.95 - 2.05, and was up to 87 mph from the outfield. The sophomore class has a solid group of uncommitted bats near the top of the class and Robinson continues to establish himself amongst that group.
