6-foot-2 185 pounds, prospect build, very projectable with athleticism. Moves around the field well. (Running) 6.89 runner in the 60. (Offense) RH. Max EV 99. Max Dist. 368. Good box presence. Stands taller and relaxed with a slightly open base. Hands held tight to the body in front of the chest. Uses a smaller leg kick stride and creates proper amount of separation with the hands. Has some bat speed with a swing that gets through the zone. Has a controlled violence to his swing. Swing gets to the top half of the ball. Gap-to-gap XBH type bat with some pull side pop. (Defense) (IF) RH. IF velo 84. Event high IF velo. Prototypical SS build. Has slightly loud actions, could be more efficient with his moves. Feet are active, cuts the distance well on balls at him. Moves well laterally. Glove has some give into the body while fielding. Arm will work from the left side. Can throw from different arm slots and on the move. Will follow development at SS. Projects as left side IF/corner OF spot.

Jimmy Diaz (Cienega, 2024)
Very projectable frame. Long limbs with room to add strength. Projects great on the left side of the diamond. 7.19 runner in the 60. Consistent strides with some length, speed should increase with strength and maturity. (OF) Good athlete, gets on the ball well. Takes some time to release, throws were low, through the cut, and on target. (IF) 83 mph IF velo. Prototypical SS frame with projection. Raw actions in the IF, good athlete. Long strides and direct to the baseball. More involvement with the feet will allow him to read hops and adjust to the baseball. Slight adjustment to glove angle could increase fielding skills, glove angle is slightly flat when fielding, a more vertical glove angle will give more glove to work with. (Hitting) Max EV 93.5 mph. Max Dist. 298 feet. Good box presence. Wider stance with a bend in the knees and slightly open. Hands are held ear height with a flat bat. Small knee to knee leg kick that lands in the same starting point. Loose swing mechanics with a line drive approach, 50% line drive contact on this day. Misses were underneath the ball, room to increase barrel control. Good extension through the baseball.
Game Results: 1-4 2B

2024 SS Jimmy Diaz (Cienega)- 6-foot-2, 175-pounds, large frame, athletic body, long legs, some present strength, mature above his age. Right-handed hitter, squared base, relaxed upright stance, uses a toe tap trigger with short stride, lands moderately narrow with raw front side brace. Loads hands slightly down & back. Short upper-body dominant swing with future power potential, consistent line drive contact, high finish. Used a pull-approach, present pop with even more in the body, 90.70mph exit velocity via trackman, plenty more coming, accelerates quickly with good bat speed for age. Starts preset in the infield with limited pre-pitch movement, anxious feet, fields on heels at times, glove works through the ball. Footwork should improve with experience. Strong arm at 81mph, opens front side early with loose arm. Future upside, should be followed.
