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: SS/OF LHH/Inf…will get stronger with good frame/build to add. Opportunities for adjustments hitting. Like the upside to bat/power. Defensively shows solid ability and arm strength. Good player, fun to watch him develop.
Body: 5-10, 156-pounds. Good build/frame to add strength. Will have good build as he adds strength and matures.
Hit: RHH. LHH..lands in good position to hit. Back foot rotates getting stuck 1/2 way thru swing. Fully rotates after contact, late hindering impact. Would like to see full rotation happening at point of contact, would recommend trying for some linear movement to back foot to increase lower 1/2 use resulting in more impact. Late barrel tip resulting in inconsistent time, length to swing lack of barrel control. Would recommend calming hand trigger down, looking to keep barrel closer to behind the head, resulting in more direct path to hitting zone. Shorter path to zone will improve timing. At times dumps barrel on outer 1/2 and gets pull happy…this is related to timing. 67.6 mph bat speed with 14 G's of rotational acceleration.
Power: 96 max exit velocity, averaged 88.2 mph. 334' max distance. Like the upside to bat/combo with swing adjustments and added physical strength. Definite opportunities for changes.
Arm: LH. INF-88 mph. Arm works well, shows raw arm strength developing. Showed ability to throw from all angles. Accurate throws. Like the upside to arm strength with added strength and maturity. Long toss program would be helpful.
Defense: Solid 1st step, feet work well getting body into position to field. Shows body control and agility. Feet work well thru fielding process. Hands are good, nice actions. Shows foot speed/quickness, which will continue to improve.
ATH: 6.90 runner in the 60. 1.67 and 3.83 in the 10 and 30 yard splits. Moves well. Expect time to improve with added strength and maturity. 31.40 max vertical.
