Power hitting 1B continues to make strides...
Scouting Report
6/15/23
Physical: 6-2, 208 pounds; Proportional, Muscular build. 7.33 runner in the 60. Offensively: RHH. Even setup, with feet just outside his shoulders; bat positioned at a 45 degree angle. Short take back with the hands with an up and down stride for timing. Drifts into contact while showing an aggressive lower half. Showed a short swing path with a two handed finish. More flyballs than line drives and groundballs with a peak exit velocity of 91 MPH via Trackman. Showed some pull side power. Defensively: Starts with an upright /tall setup; walks into ready position while showing active feet. Hands are out in front while funneling to the hip before transfer. Short take back from a standard 3/4 arm slot. INF - 81 MPH.
6/12/22
Physical: Above-average, physical 6-foot-1, 200lb frame. 7.57 runner in the 60-yard dash.
Offensively: RHH. Balanced, even stance, as the lower half glides over the front side at impact with weight shift. Utilized a pre-set hand position and whipped through a flat path into the hitting zone. Hard barrels to the pull-side of the field with deep one-handed finish. Recorded T91 mph bat-exit velocity with ability to land on the sweet spot with consistency. Plenty of deep contact for extra-bases.
Defensively: The first baseman chopped his feet with wider base while fielding off the middle of his body. Chance to stick moving forward, reaching back for a 77 mph arm-strength across the diamond.
Pitching: RHP - Slower paced delivery that sequences on time down the slope. Longer arm-action with a stab in the back, 74-76, T77 mph fastball into the zone. Mixed two-plane mid-60’s breaker on 11/5 tilt and developing 69-72 mph CH.
