Christian
Lovecchio

At 6-foot-1, the senior moves well behind the play and shows a strong throwing arm. He’s also the No. 3 hitter for the Vikings with line drive power and a good approach at the plate. Not necessarily a “wow” player, but a grinder who does the little things well.

Lovecchio stands 6-foot-1, 180-pounds with projectable size. At the plate he starts slightly open. On the pitch he strides to even, loads back, creates a slight arm bar on load, hands stay inside his body, barrel stays mostly even through the contact zone, shoulder height finish, exit velocity off a tee was 80 mph. From behind the dish he setups slightly open, narrow stance, receives with confidence. On this throws to second he moves his feet towards second, shoulders line up with target, clean transfer, throws from an over-the-top slot at 72 mph. He ran a 4.59 home-to-first time.
