Scouting Report
Last Chance Open I.D. Showcase (November 5th, 2016)
Roman has a lanky build at 5-foot-9 155-pounds. Offensively- Roman sets up in a wide stance with a crouch. Hands are set up high above his back shoulder. He uses a small stride/toe tap to start swing. Power comes from hips, minimal weight transfer and hand load. Quiet approach. Flat bat path - recorded an exit velocity of 71 mph. Power will continue to improve as he matures, but fundamentals are there. Defensively- agile movements at shortstop. Exchange is clean and throws topped at 77 mph across the infield. High-3/4 slot, throws had backspin and carry.
