Hit: RHH. Balanced setup with a simple leg load. Hands work to create space. Hands get a little high at launch. Should be around shoulder/arm pit for more relaxed shoulders. Decent plane of bat.

Defense: Feet work. Glove actions present. Accelerate through catch. Don't stop to catch. Last 2 steps to catch should be your quickest.

Vizual Edge: 53.02 Edge Score
Carlton had a solid showing on both sides of the ball. On the bump, he sat 81-83 with ~19 IVB and commanded it well. The SL had a quick and late break and with good rotation. CH has good sink and will be even more effective when he can soften it a little more. At 1B, he moves well for a big frame with good glove actions and rhythm to feet. Cody also shows solid pop with his bat, delivering some strength and gap to gap pop. More to come from Carlton as he continues to develop and mature.
