Uncommitted Spotlight: '23 OF Aidan Paduck (Tunkhannock Area)

 

Physical: Muscular, athletic 5-foot-10, 165lb frame. 6.87 runner in the 60-yard dash

Offensively: RHH. Upright, even stance, as the hands started pre-slotted at a 45. Utilized a stretched lift and replace stride to initiate the swing through a flat path into the hitting zone. Some tilt present at times on the rear hip, able to lift to the pull-side gap for distance (301 feet max). Recorded a 50/50 line drive, fly ball split, which produced extension at impact up to a T89 mph exit velocity via Trackman. More to come.

Defensively: The outfielder was a metrics darling, rounding the ball with an adjustable glove-hand inside and outside the frame. Delivered an 86 mph arm-strength positionally with fluid hips and a loose H ¾ slot.
