5-foot-9, 170-pound right-handed hitting middle infielder. Ran a 7.28 sixty on the laser at the event. The glove and actions in the middle of the field are flashy and quick. He is a good defender and plays defense with confidence. Threw 84 mph across the diamond with accuracy and ease. The bat has a tee exit velocity of 88 mph. The swing has a lot of action, even in base, knee to knee timing on the bottom half. The bat has wiggle to it, ala Gary Sheffield. The path is long cause there is hand drop to initiate the swing. The path is long and strong, 1-hand finish after contact.

5-foot-9, 160-pound, average athletic frame, shows to have wiry strength, shoulders are sloped, has room to fill out and add mass on. A right-handed hitter, showed the ability to play all over the field at the future games. Projects more as a second baseman, or left fielder, can hold his own at both corners in infield as well. The top tool is his ability to swing the bat. The stance is spread out, sits in a small crouch, hands are loose with pre pitch movement to them. The swing is level to up, barrel has life out front on contact, gets and stays through the baseball, finishes with one hand. The approach is more to the middle to pull side, showed the ability to get the baseball deep in the alley in batting practice rounds.

Defensively, hands are soft at third base, arm was clocked at 83 mph, has whip like action to it, showed to have carry on throws. Moved well to glove side, good actions starting the 5-4-3 double play.  Saw action at first as well, feet worked smooth around the bag, quick feet and actions on starts to second. Good follow, will be valuable for someone.

Sixty-Yard- 7.43

Exit Velocity-87 MPH

Arm Velocity-83 MPH

5-foot-8-155 pound sophomore with a projectable body capable of adding upper body strength without losing much of his present athleticism. While listed as either middle infield position, his future is likely at second base. Defensively, the arm is average for a high schooler as a sophomore with the potential for further development. The actions are smooth often accompanied with a very quick first step. Fluid lateral movements that make up for middling straight line speed. At the plate, Caccavale has a unique swing with a lot of moving pieces. It features a high leg kick, lots of wiggle in the bat pre-pitch, but loose wrists that drive the barrel to accelerate through the zone. Made hard contact during batting practice and in game. The wrist strength and forceful acceleration could match elite velocity or possible force a mechanical adjustment, time will tell. The general package is promising with additional room for improvement, someone to keep an eye on for East Catholic in the coming seasons.
