10/16/16 - Home-1st: 4.55, Position Velocity:  OF - 86, Exit Velocity: 91
6-foot-3, 185-pound, RHH hits from a taller and slightly open stance with good balance and relaxed hands, uses a slow, smooth, and abbreviated leg kick and longer stride with a smooth lowering and movement back with his hands to get loaded, lower half fires well to get some good separation but does stay tall and could gain more leverage, swing plane comes into the zone a little steeply but flattens out through the ball to show some gap-to-gap potential.  Defensively, plays athletically in the outfield by playing through the ball well with soft hands and good footwork, long arm action through a high ¾ slot shows a lot of life with good carry.  Grenkoski only hit in Game 2 and finished 1-3 with a run scored. One of the top players in the 2019 class.

10/16/16 - Max FB: 85, FB: 82-85, CB: 70-72, 
6-foot-3, 185-pound, RHP has been one of the youngest and most impressive players in the 2019 class for months and didn’t do anything to change that here, smooth and rhythmic delivery is pretty consistent and engages his entire body, high leg lift and reach down the mound display his length and athleticism on the mound, strides in line, long arm action is pretty loose and clean through a high ¾ slot, size and movements project continued growth and progress.  Fastball showed run and was very heavy, curveball showed 11/5 to 10/4 shape with almost a slider-like action.  Grenkoski struck out 1 without allowing a run and showed pretty consistent command of the zone.  He continues to improve each and every time we seen him.
