Fastball
Hop+
A fastball with hop has a flat approach angle and visually jumps through the zone. When thrown up in the zone, it is more likely to generate a higher swing and miss average. Hop+ of 100 is MLB average.
Fastball
Sink+
A fastball with sink has low backspin and drops through the strike zone. When thrown down in the zone, it is more likely to generate a higher ground ball percentage and lower launch angle. Sink+ of 100 is MLB average.
Fastball
Rise+
A fastball with rise has a high percentage of backspin. When thrown up in the zone, it is more likely to generate a higher fly ball percentage. Rise+ of 100 is MLB average
Curveball
Hammer+
A hammer breaking ball drops vertically with velocity through the zone, or 12-to-6 movement. Hammer+ of 100 is MLB average.
Curveball
Sweep+
A sweeping breaking ball moves horizontally with velocity through the zone. Sweep+ of 100 is MLB average.

Grip Strgth (LH)
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: 1B/RHP RHH/1B…will continue to add strength. Upside to bat/power with chance to be impactful hitter with adjustments. Defensively solid player at 1st. Looks the part, has tools. Can he make adjustments taking advantage of tools?
Body: 6-3, 214-pounds. Good build with solid lower 1/2. Will add strength in future.
Hit: RHH. Lands in good position to hit after stride. Rotational back foot, does a good job of getting lower 1/2 in swing. Hands/barrel in solid position to launch. Long swing with uphill plane. Hands initial movement is down, barrel has scoop swing, bars lead arm slightly. Bat/hand speed present. Would recommend working to have hands take more direct path to zone along with barrel. Work to back spin baseball hitting line drives. 75.1 mph bat speed with 23 G's of rotational acceleration.
Power: 103 max exit velocity, averaged 93.5 mph. 388' max distance. Upside. Bat/power chance to exceed. Opportunities for adjustments to improve and take advantage of the bat/hand speed he has along with bat strength shown. Got a chance to be impactful hitter.
Arm: RH. INF-78 mph. Arm works fine. Can improve arm speed and arm strength with long toss program.
Defense: Feet work well moving off bag, getting body into position to field. Feet work thru fielding process. Body control present. Hands are solid, can firm ability fielding baseball out front. Like the way he moves along with reads/instincts.
ATH: 7.29 runner in the 60. 1.87 and 4.11 in the 10 and 30 yard splits. Hard runner.
Positional Profile: 1B/RHP Good build to corner infielder who can add strength. Like the upside to bat/power combo with adjustments. Showed solid actions and defense at 1st. Player who will impact the ball next spring.
Body: 6-3, 214-pounds. Solid build with strength to lower. Will add strength to upper in future.
Hit: RHH. Wide, crouched stance. Shifts weight to back leg with draw back knee lift stride, basically puts stride foot back down where it started. Rotational back foot, lower 1/2 gets involved in swing. Could get lower 1/2 involved more if he incorporated some linear movement to back foot. Hands pushed away from body slightly, barrel starts in decent position, slight hand movement to initiate swing. Some length to swing, shows bat speed, pull approach. 68.6 mph bat speed with 22 G's of rotational acceleration.
Power: 94 max exit velocity, averaged 82.4 mph. 362' max distance. Will have pull side power, shortening swing some will help with barrel contact consistency. With adjustments I like the future bat/power combo.
Arm: RH. INF-79 mph. Arm works fine, carry across, fringe avg arm in future. Accurate throws to 2nd on front end of DP.
Defense: 1st base…moves well off the bag, solid footwork moving to get body into position to field, avg hands. Good footwork setting feet to throw. Solid defender.
ATH: 7.21 runner in the 60. 1.58 and 3.90 in the 10 and 30 yard splits. Runs hard with good initial quickness. 23.80 max vertical.
Vizual Edge: 76.37 Edge Score
