Scouting Report
2/16/2019: Manuel Lopez, SS/2B, Northrop HS, 2020, 5 foot 8, 165 pounds, uses a leg kick to load, takes hands back early and carries them forward with a lengthy stride. Has good barrel position and hits consistent line drives with a flat path and good extension. Had an exit velo of 85 mph, and also ran a 7.27 60 yard dash. Manuel moves well defensively and throws well with a good release and short infield arm action, and he threw 85 mph across the diamond.
9/23/18: Smaller framed 2020 MIF. Hits from the right side. Crouched setup in the box. Weight transfer back then explodes forward. Showed quick bat with line drive ability. Looks like a top of the order type bat. Posted an exit velo of 84. In the field showed twitchy actions with feel for the SS positions, soft hands and good footwork. Accurate throws across the diamond at 85. Interesting 2020 to follow.
