Scouting Report

 

 

6/12/19

 

6' 155-pound frame with room for strength. Slightly open stance squatted down into his legs. Bat on shoulder until he rocks into back side to load. Lower half generates bat speed and fires to get hips all the way through to allow good extension in the zone. Gets into slot well to match pitch plane for a long time. Knack for finding the barrel in game play against quality pitching and plays faster than his 7.03 60 time. Showed an accurate arm with good carry from the outfield at 83 MPH.

 




Scouting Report

6/12/19

 

5’9 160-pound frame. Narrow, tall set up sinking into his legs while loading. Small leg kick to get into back side. Keeps bat flat throughout load and swing, working into the zone early and keeping him on plain. Middle approach, finding the barrel frequently in game play. Exit velo at 87 MPH. Arm at 77 may limit him to left field but runs well enough to play center. 6.7 60.
