Scouting Report

 

11.18.18 - Defensively, Goff displayed very good balance and feel for the middle infield. He attacked balls and created easy hops for himself. His hands moved freely as he displayed a quick, clean transfer. A 76 mph velocity across the infield was recorded along with running a 7.06-60.

 

 

Offensively, Goff initiates his swing from a spread base stance with a small front leg kick. He does a good job of using his hips to create torque and his hands work well through the zone. A 82 mph exit velocity was recorded. Overall, Goff is advanced for his age and is a high follow for the 2021 Class.

 

 


7/12/17 5-foot-8, 135-pound right-handed hitter. initiates swing from wide base with no stride.  He does sway in load coming very close if not getting back knee outside of back foot.  There is also some length to swing.  Otherwise swing is mechanically sound.  There is good balance, solid feel for barrel and head is still.  Additionally, the swing is on plane with an aggressive hip turn and hands work well to baseball.

 

 

Defensively, a confidence in attacking the baseball and creating positive angles and hops belying Goff's age is present. Additionally a clean quick transfer is demonstrated.  Arm strength will need to markedly improve to stay on left side of infield.

 

 

On mound FB sat 74-75 with subtle arm side run.  Goff stayed in line with repeatable delivery.  CB sat 62-64 with rolling break and 11-5 shape. Change up sat 64 63-64 thrown at FB arm speed with subtle arm side fade.  Overall mechanics and athleticism in every phase make Goff an interesting young follow.
