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.
Positional Profile: C/OF
Body: 6-0, 168-pounds. Compact frame with sound mechanics in the lower half
Hit: RHH. Begins with his balance even in an athletic stance just past shoulder width apart. His hands begin in their launch position at the rear shoulder. A small leg lift turns his body rearward slightly in a load, prior to launch at footplant. Works the gaps well, with his hardest hit balls coming to the LCF gap. Has a very good base with his swing that will continue to produce harder contact as he grows and develops physically. 64.7 mph bat speed with 17 G's of rotational acceleration.
Power: 85 max exit velocity, averaged 82.4 mph. 305' max distance.
Arm: RH. C-79 mph. Tight move into his throwing motion, catcher-ish arm action with on target throws. More arm strength in there.
Defense: 1.88-1.97 pop times. Works off of one knee with quick transfer into the throwing motion.
Positional Profile: C/OF
Body: 5-10, 161-pounds. Compact frame with longer limbs with lots of room for added muscle.
Hit: RHH. Swing launches from his start postion. Small stride forward and go with hands pulling back into shoulder blades before launching. Works up the middle the other way with a flat bat path, generates good EV's for barely using his lower half. Much more strength in the tank. 65.4 mph bat speed with 12 G's of rotational acceleration.
Power: 86 max exit velocity, averaged 73.3 mph. 276' max distance.
Arm: RH. C-69 mph. OF-82 mph. Strong throws from OF w/ C arm action. Behind the plate puts the ball right on the bag from same arm action.
Defense: 2.00-2.40 pop times. Athletic movements to ball fielding on left foot out in front. Quick transfer and release from behind the plate. Lower pop time in there as arm strength fills out.
ATH: 7.21 runner in the 60. 1.72 in the 10 yard split. 28.20 max vertical.
