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/2B LHH/INF Will add strength, projects well physically. Solid defender, actions present, shows ability to make plays on the move. Solid bat/power combo in future. Nice job of getting into position to hit. Good player, will be fun to watch him develop.
Body: 5-11, 179-pounds. Good frame/build to add strength. Lower showing increased strength since last seen.
Hit: LHH. Simple approach to hit. Not a lot of movement, lands in good position to hit. Nice use of lower 1/2, good posture to swing. Barrel/hands in good launch position. Takes good path to zone with hands and barrel. Solid line drive contact. Bat speed will come with added strength. 66.4 mph bat speed with 29 G's of rotational acceleration.
Power: 96 max exit velocity, averaged 77.9 mph. 306' max distance. Solid bat/power combo in future. Simple approach to hit, not a lot of movement. Creates line drive contact. Will continue to improve as he adds physical strength.
Arm: RH. INF-82 mph. Arm works, carry to throws. Will have avg arm in future.
Defense: Solid fielder. Feet work well getting body to baseball. Solid 1st step. Nice job of playing thru ball with feet. Hands work, glove in good position to field. Makes plays on the move, showing body control and agility.
ATH: 7.15 runner in the 60. 1.69 and 3.98 in the 10 and 30 yard splits. Solid start, runs well. Expect speed to continue to increase as he adds strength and physical maturity. 18.10 max vertical.
Grant Stafford, Lufkin (TX), 2027
Positional Profile: SS/2B LHH/INF..will add strength. Solid defender in future with defensive versatility. Solid hit approach with opportunities for swing adjustments. Good player. Will be interesting to watch develop.
Body: 5-11, 174-pounds. Great build/frame to add needed strength in future. Projects to have quality build in future.
Hit: LHH. Lands in good position to hit. Linear movement to back foot, does a good job of using lower 1/2 and hitting into firm front side. Good posture in swing. Will continue to improve as he adds strength. Hands/barrel in solid launch position. Hands push away late from body along with back elbow raising, creating some length to swing. Would like to see less push away from body and softening of elbow. Pull swing. Game play had solid AB's, couple hard hit 1B's to RF. 65.8 mph bat speed with 28 G's of rotational acceleration.
Power: 95 max exit velocity, averaged 79.6 mph. 324' max distance. Solid bat/power combo with upside to hit ability. Good hit approach and lower 1/2 use. I like the swing now with opportunity for adjustments, just starting to scratch surface of what he can do with bat.
Arm: RH. INF-78 mph. Arm works, will have avg arm in future. Carry present.
Defense: Feet work getting body into fielding position. Decent job of playing thru baseball with feet, can improve consistently working thru baseball. Glove/hands in solid position to field, fields baseball deep at times. Needs to work on fielding ball out front consistently. Solid defender in future with adjustments.
ATH: 7.32 runner in the 60. 1.81 and 4.09 in the 10 and 30 yard splits. Runs hard, moves well. Will improve with added strength.
