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/3B RHH/INF Will add strength. Solid defensive player developing. Flashes raw ability. Nice bat/power combo in future. Hard contact off barrel.
Body: 6-2, 186-pounds. Good build/frame to add strength in future. Strength coming, chance to develop in really good build in future.
Hit: RHH. Lands in good position to hit after stride. Rotational back foot, good using lower 1/2 in swing. Firm front side, lays back body at contact, would like to see more upright while hitting into firm front side. Barrel/hands in good launch position. Takes good path to zone with barrel, swing works. Uphill path with swing created by body laying back, will show more consistent line drive contact with firming of posture at contact. 68.5 mph bat speed with 18 G's of rotational acceleration.
Power: 94 max exit velocity, averaged 75.9 mph. 314' max distance. Project solid bat/power combo in future. Development opportunities with adjustments. Solid swing, nice upside present.
Arm: RH. INF-72 mph. Arm works, arm speed will develop with added strength physically. Follow longer throws with feet after release.
Defense: Feet work well moving off bag, keep feet moving thru fielding process, especially when playing behind bag…play thru baseball. Fields baseball deep, work to field ball out front.
ATH: 7.05 runner in the 60. Solid start, runs hard, got upright at finish.
Vizual Edge: 60.07 Edge Score
Positional Profile: 1B/3B RHH/INF…will add needed strength in future. Solid defender in future, arm strength will continue to develop. Upside to bat/power combo with adjustments, definite opportunities for adjustments present maximizing future bat/power combo.
Body: 6-1, 188-pounds. Good build/frame to add needed strength in future. Projects to have good build.
Hit: RHH. Lands in good position to hit after stride. Rotational back foot, spins. Learn to drive lower 1/2 forward with rotation, get to ball of foot with turn aggressively driving hip forward. Recommend trying to develop some linear movement forward with back foot. Lacks upright posture hitting presently, this will be helped by driving back side forward into firm front side. Barrel/hands in good launch position. Dumps barrel around creating length to swing. Work to take hands/barrel with more direct path to hit zone. Firming posture with hit mechanics will help swing also. 66.6 mph bat speed with 14 G's of rotational acceleration.
Power: 85 max exit velocity, averaged 72.9 mph. 319' max distance. Solid bat/power combo with adjustments in future. Opportunities present for changes, hasn't scratched the surface with what he can do with bat yet due to current approach. Nice upside.
Arm: RH. INF-73 mph. Arm works fine, lacks arm speed presently. Needs long toss program to develop arm speed and raw arm strength.
Defense: Feet work fielding along with hands, moves fine to baseball. Solid defender in future.
ATH: 7.57 runner in the 60. 1.82 and 4.21 in the 10 and 30 yard splits. Moves well. Runs hard, will improve some with added strength.
