Scouting Report

7/30/20

 

Physical: Strong / athletic 6-foot, 175-pound frame with projectability in the build. 7.87 runner in the 60-yard dash. Offensively: RHH. Begins with a tall, wide stance showing minor rhythm with the hands at the shoulder as the barrel pointed upwards. Utilized a toe-tap stride with hip coil into the backside and solid direction through the baseball upon footstrike as the hands jolted through a lofty, slightly uphill path into the hitting zone. Liked to get the long levers extended on pitches out over the plate getting through extension with ease. Solid usage of the lower half and generated plenty of ground power while hitting into a stiff front side, medium posture throughout. Recorded a peak bat-exit velocity of 84 mph per Trackman Baseball with an impressive 42 % line drive rate during his batting practice round. The RHH’s ceiling continues to rise and more power should be expected in the near future as the body keeps maturing. Defensively: The primary third baseman featured a medium setup with athleticism throughout, long actions with range to the glove hand side, stayed down through the baseball while fielding off of the middle of his body with active footwork. Could make the play on the run with ability to throw across his body. Utilized a high ¾ slot with a medium arm circle on throws across the diamond primarily. INF - 74 mph Pitching: RHP - Starts from the left side of the rubber with a short side rocker step, medium leg lift with moderate pace throughout the delivery, solid lower half drive getting directional towards the plate, gets over the front side at footstrike using a high ¾ slot with a medium arm circle. FB ranged from 75-76 T79 mph per Trackman Baseball topping at 1918 spin per Trackman Baseball, mixed in a quality 61-63 mph breaker with 11/5 tilt and countered with a low spin 68-70 mph CH with occasional fade to it.
