Kirchberg is a physical two-way listed at 5-foot-10, 165 pounds, and he ran a 7.21 in the 60-yard dash. Kirchberg starts tall in the box, and sinks into his backside with an aggressive leg kick. Working from inside and keeping his head down at plant, he connected on pitches with exits as high as 89.4 mph, and a batted distance of 325 feet. Kirchberg used the whole field with varying timing, with above-average barrel feel for a freshman. He was also up to 79.3 mph on the mound with secondary feel that’s worth continuing to monitor as a two-way prospect.
