As a positional player, showed good bat speed with loose hands and a free barrel. Tee exit velocity of 73. Needs strength to the swing and the body. Sets up even and uses his body to aid the hands. Actions are loose, needs to continue to develop. Threw 70 from the outfield with good accuracy. Ran a 4.86 down the line on a home to first. On the mound, showed a short arm path on the backside and an athletic delivery. Fastball touch 72 and had left-handed run to it. The delivery is simple and he has a small coil at the top of his lift. Tends to pull his front arm his direction, taking away from his direction. The breaking ball has the right shape, 65-66. The changeup shows promise, 65 with fade.
6.30.15
On the mound, clean ¾ arm slot with a good short path. Little in stature but should grow and progress well. Fastball has run and sits at 70 mph. The breaking pitch is slurvy and has very good shape and form, sits at 61 mph. Throws a quality changeup. The delivery is simple with a quick leg lift and good direction. In the outfield, he threw 70 mph with good approach and form. Ran a 7.68 60-yard dash. The bat has life to it and its simple. The hands work, tee exit velocity of 71 mph. The setup is simple and he uses his hands to maneuver the barrel. Needs strength and growth in the body for development.
Zach is a a 2018 with good ability based off what I saw. He ran a 7.9 and showed a 69 mph arm from the outfield. He approached the ball confidently and with the right footwork. At the plate, he has a big leg kick but his hand path and speed are good. As he grows, his bat speed should make him a good left- handed hitting prospect. Good follow for his age.
