Scouting Report
Listen to how the ball sounds coming off of ‘23 1B Tim Schuler’s bat (104 EV). The La Salle product consistently drove the ball to the pull-side gap w/ elite extension & impressive burst through the hitting window (350 foot batted ball distance). @GregWilliamsPBR@buckscobaseballpic.twitter.com/nqPUndUQcG
.@TrackManBB Tale of the Tape-Hitting? ‘23 1B/3B Tim Schuler (La Salle HS) Solidified himself as a definite power bat after a big day at the plate yesterday!
Physical: Physically advanced, proportional 6-foot-1, 185-pound frame with feel for his body in all facets of the game. 7.22 runner in the 60-yard dash.
Offensively: RHH. Balanced, even setup with the barrel wiggling high at the ear later settling down at the shoulder before load. Utilized a controlled lift-and-replace stride coupled with minimal hand movement in the hands at the load in order to initiate his swing. Generated a slightly uphill barrel path with plenty of strength and power in the lower half creating present hip shoulder separation and lift to the pull-side. The stroke was short at the plate and allowed for a quick trigger and ability to consistently be on time in game action. Demonstrated gap to gap prowess with home run power when contacting the ball out in front of the plate evidenced by a 95 mph bat-exit velocity during batting practice per Trackman Baseball.
Defensively: The first baseman displayed a low center of gravity during defensive evaluations with a soft glove hand working aggressively out front with downhill play through the ball. Showcased feel around the bag and was able to get off while holding runners and spin the front side of double plays with regularity. Arm worked through an accurate and repeatable, high ¾ slot 1B - 80 mph
