Scouting Report
6/24/18 - (Tournament of Stars): Hendrick's bat speed has translated to hard contact all week. In his second at-bat, he squared up a single and then hammered his home run over the trees in right-center. He also just missed a grand slam, send a sacrifice fly to deep right field. He finished with two RBIs and three runs scored on the day.
6/20/18 - (Tournament of Stars): has a funky set-up with his feet close together and front heel raised, but his quick hands produce electric bat speed. He takes aggressive hacks, over swinging at times, but can punish the baseball. He walked twice and squared up a single through the right side in the game.
4/8/17 5-foot-10, 180-pound left-handed hitter demonstrated raw athleticism and bat speed that make him an elite prospect in the class of 2020. Bat speed allows Hendrick to see the ball deep before committing. Despite an unorthodox, extremely narrow stance and pre-pitch load Hendrick achieves above average separation by stepping and rotating away from his hands. Hips and hands are extremely quick.
