Scouting Report:
New Jersey Games (July 23-25, 2016)
Tirrell is a lean, athletic 5-foot-11 160-pounds and plays the middle infield. Ran a 6.98 60, one of the best of the event. Offensively, Tirrell starts in a crouch with the bat resting on his shoulder. Load is started by a small leg kick from the left side. Hands are loaded below shoulder. Load is smooth and controlled. Finish is balanced. Hips are explosive and he has an idea for a bat bath. Exit Velocity: 83.
Defensively - Tirrell had one of the highest infield velocities at 83 mph. Throws from a high-3/4 slot with carry and advanced footwork. Very smooth in the field in his approach to ground balls. Exchange is clean. Quick arm. Can play SS at the next level.
