He shows the ability to stick pitches with a quick transfer. The arm action is short and quick and has been up to 82 from the crouch with pop times in the low 2.0's. Offensively, Metcalf hits from a balanced setup and loads back using a short stride. He displays good bat speed and gets to extension regularly producing gap-to-gap power.
