Scouting Report

2/09/20

 

6-foot-1, 180-pound primary pitcher sat 77-79 from a high 3/4 arm slot with a balanced, repeatable delivery. Also showcased solid feel for a curveball at 63-64 with 11/5 rotation and good arm speed on his changeup at 73-75 with some arm-side run. The right-handed hitter starts from a square stance and initiates his swing with a lift-and-replace stride. Makes a hard move to his front foot but keeps his hands back routinely. Showed gap power with above average feel for the barrel. Registered a bat exit velocity of 90 mph and ran a 7.65 60-yard dash. Displayed active feet at third base with confidence in his glove hand while making accurate 78 mph throws across the diamond.

Displayed the ability to stay behind the baseball with a flat barrel path. Registered a bat exit velocity of 79 mph and ran a 7.87 60-yard dash. Displayed  a confident glove hand and accurate 78 mph arm strength across the diamond defensively with a long arm throwing motion.
