Grip Strgth (RH)
Grip strength is a measure of a players bat control and ability to transfer power and speed during impact, measured in pounds of force generated; collected with elbow bent at 90 degrees.
Uncommitted. The physical senior at 6-foot, 220-pounds gets into it with every swing and produces consistent loud exits. A loud showing on Sunday collecting a knock back up the middle at an exit velocity of 101 MPH. Simple actions in the box, coupled with impressive bat-speed allows the ball to explode off the barrel. Byams is an effortless mover through impact and the power upside is massive. Will be a surprisingly uncommitted name to watch in the spring.
