Micah Purdom, CHRIST PRESBYTERIAN ACADEMY (TN), 2027 Positional Profile: OF/LHP Body: 6-0, 165-pounds. Long frame with quick, twitchy actions. Added strength and size will add more power to these actions. Hit: LHH. Shows intent in his setup that sees his stance even with feet slightly past shoulder width apart. His barrel tilted towards the pitcher at a 45 degree angle. Gets most of his weight onto the backside with a leg lift that is occasionally a toe tap. Rear leg dominant once the swing starts as he finishes on his back leg. Drove the ball primarily to the right side of the field, does a very good job creating space on the inner half allowing him to get to just about anything. A great athlete and has hitterish instincts, look for a jump in EV soon. 70.2 mph bat speed with 12 G's of rotational acceleration. Power: 92 max exit velocity, averaged 82.4 mph. 350' max distance. Arm: LH. OF-89 mph. Shorter swing into his throwing motion with easy speed through it. Has made a big jump in velo with more in there. Defense: Generates great momentum through the ball, goes and gets the right hops. ATH: 6.80 runner in the 60. 1.69 and 4.35 in the 10 and 30 yard splits.
