Scouting Report

6/12/22

 

Physical: Athletic, low-waisted 6-foot, 170lb frame. 6.85 runner in the 60-yard dash.

Offensively: RHH. Balanced, even stance that connects to the ground while hands start in a good place to hit. Utilized a controlled leg-lift stride to high position, initiating the swing through a flat path with big rotational PWR when turning the hips. Posted multiple impressive measurables during a strong round of barreled balls to the middle/pull side. Landed at T94 mph exit, adding 336 foot distance and 67% sweet spot rate. Chance to hit for some average and XBH.  

Defensively: The outfielder featured an easy feel in space and clean reads off the bat. Bursty first step and rangy defender who can go get it in the air. Posted an 83 mph arm-strength with quick release, accurate thrower.

Pitching: LHP - The southpaw begins from the far right side of the rubber. Natural pace to the delivery, pitched well “down the hallway.” Consistent tunnel on FB/CB, separating at 79-81 mph with carry/run traits with mixed 66-68 mph breaker with lateral shape.

 

 

2/27/22

 

Physical: Athletic, proportional 6-foot, 165lb build. 6.88 runner in the 60-yard dash.

Offensively: RHH - Upright, even stance with the hands starting loosely upwards by the shoulder. Utilized a leg-lift stride to initiate the swing through a flat path into the hitting zone towards a lower one-handed finish. Recorded a T93 mph bat-exit velocity and 64% sweet spot rate, showcasing a middle of the field approach with barrel accuracy. Some gap to gap strength found and consistent, leveraged contact points. 

Defensively: The outfielder displays corner projection and gets moving downhill in a hurry. Fielded off of the right side of the frame and tilts the shoulders in-line to the target at release. Generated an 83 mph arm-strength out of an accurate, taller H ¾ slot. 

Pitching: LHP - The southpaw started off of the far right corner of the mound. Lifts the leg with hip-coil across the body, getting a good angle over the front side at release. The FB worked to both sides at 75-77 mph and mixed a sweeping low-60’s CB. Also flashed a hard fading 61-62 mph CH with room for added intent.
