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.
Positional Profile: C/2B Switch hitting catcher showing fundamentals that are relatively sound with ability to firm. Will benefit from added strength and has build/frame that can get stronger.
Body: 5-9, 152-pounds. Good build showing strength to lower. Room to add more strength.
Hit: SH. LHH…wide base, starts open, strides to online, good use of lower 1/2 with rotational backside. RHH similar set up/approach, RH not quite as efficient with lower 1/2 as LHH. LHH barrel/hands in good launch position. RHH barrel/hands in similar position except push away from body slightly more. Length to swing both sides of plate. Both sides have okay hand/bat speed. Look for bat speed to increase with add strength. 61.6 mph bat speed with 9 G's of rotational acceleration.
Power: 84 max exit velocity, averaged 70.7 mph. 305' max distance. Power will develop with added strength. Length to swing hinders contact consistency.
Arm: RH. C-72 mph. Arm works fine with accurate throws. Fair arm speed, would benefit from long toss program.
Defense: 2.00-2.08 pop times. Receives well, good glove to hand exchange. Solid footwork setting to throw.
ATH: 7.51 runner in the 60. 1.75 and 4.14 in the 10 and 30 yard splits. Runs hard. 27.00 max vertical.
Vizual Edge: 66.24 Edge Score
