Scouting Report:
New Jersey Games (July 23-25, 2016)
Provost is an athletic, physically built 3B (converted SS) at 6-foot 185-pounds. Ran a 7.33 60. One of the top performers of the whole event. One of the top uncommitteds in the state. Offensively, starts with weight on front leg and shifts back for a load as the pitch comes in. Uses a small controlled leg kick with aggressive hips and hands. occasionally pulls off. True gap to gap power. Exit Velo 91, one of the top of the event.
Defensively - made several plays in the field during the games that were outstanding. Has a feel for hands and movements at third base already. Very clean efficient actions in the field, no wasted movements. Throws from a 3/4 slot with some carry and back spin. 82 mph across the infield.
