FL Insider: 2017 Draft Spotlights
May 5, 2017
By Doug Freeman
Florida Scouting Director
We have spent the spring covering high school baseball from south Florida to the panhandle. Throughout this process we have tracked and followed guys that were already high on most draft boards as well as guys that have risen throughout the spring. Over the next month we will highlight players that we have seen in the follow draft spotlight.
Chris Seise SS / 3B / West Orange, FL / 2017Central Florida recruit. The standout shortstop has played solid defense up the middle in multiple outings this spring showcasing a quick first step, soft hands and a strong arm across the diamond. He shows easy, athletic actions with enough range and arm to stay at short. Offensively Siese’s tools have always been impressive, running a 4.01 down the line on a swinging bunt. Seise has become much more consistent offensively this spring, with the swing noticeably shorter through the zone with less swing and miss. He is balanced, with a strong lower half and power potential from gap-to-gap. Overall, the tools have always been present with Seise, but the overall consistent play has him on the rise. |
