Seamus Curran, 1B/C, Agawam HS, 2015

BACKGROUND

Seamus is a 6-foot-5, 220-pound 2015 left-handed hitting first baseman/catcher. He attends Agawam High School. In the summer he plays for the East Cobb New England Expos. He has chosen to attend the University of Rhode Island over a number of high level schools in the country.

SCOUTING REPORT

Offensively, Curran sets up with and even based stance and a high back elbow. He gets the the barrel to the zone with relative ease. His barrel is down and thru and he has a high finish. He shows good power potential, with some flattening of the bat plane, he could get scary as a hitter.  He is a good athlete, who runs a 7.2. Curran moves well around the bag at first and show plenty of glove an average arm to play the position. Behind the dish, he is a big physical target , shows average footwork and playable receiving tools. His transfer is fine at 2.0 but he tends to get a bit long on the back with his throwing. He is an offensive player who is big and left-handed, therefore there is a ton to like.
