Notes

Comments

10/09/22

Physical: Developing, projectable 6-foot-1, 157lb frame. 8.23 runner in the 60.

Offensively: RHH. Taller, coiled stance, as the hands start tipped well over the head. Utilized a short lift-and-replace stride to initiate the swing through a flat, direct path with some lift after impact. Got longer arms extended on the ball for a middle of the field approach, recording a T78 mph exit velocity and 67% barrel rate. Upper-half dominant, but matched plane.

Defensively: The first baseman featured average feel around the bag at first, using a narrow base and soft glove-hand to field off his toes. Showed outside footwork on the shuffle while reaching back for a 72 mph infield arm.

Pitching: RHP. Starts off the right side of the rubber, stretch-only; higher stack position with balance down the slope. Finished his pitches from a ¾ slot, creating hard arm-side run on a 65-66 mph FB for strikes. Mixed a lower-spin 54-56 mph SL and fading 57-58 mph CH.
