PROGRESS Report
Recent Improvements: 2/06/22 Pittsburgh Outlaws Scout Day -- Arriving with an additional 10lbs of muscle on the frame, the Yough Senior product generated solid power output in all phases, recording a 2.12 best pop time with cleaned-up posture and a quicker move out of the crouch. The arm-strength rose up into the 78 mph range with accuracy to the glove-side of the bag and an improved receive skillset allowed him to steal the high pitch on occasion. More physical now in the box, the right-handed hitter posted a T96 mph bat-exit velocity (+3 mph) and showed off better power distribution throughout the base (76 mph bat-speed, 19 G's rotational acceleration).
