Matt McKnight, Pro Stock Royals Academy (NC), 2025 North Carolina
Positional Profile: 3B/SS Length with a baby face. Continues to add quickness as he adds strength to the frame. High level feel for the barrel.
Body: 6-3, 198-pounds. Long frame. Length in the limbs.
Hit: RHH. Tall and athletic. Pre-load waggle with a flat barrel over the shoulder. Small hand load works the bat head to vertical. Leg kick loads the weight back. Average stide. Works level and on-line. Balanced finish Solid leverage at contact with an aggressive backside. Solid feel for driving balls to the pull side. 69.1 mph bat speed with 16 G's of rotational acceleration.
Power: 96 max exit velocity, averaged 84.0 mph. 319' max distance. Ball pops when on barrel. Big power potential, especially to the pull side. Excellent leverage and direction, especially for the length in the arms.
Arm: RH. INF-84 mph. Short, athletic release. High-3/4 for most throws with carry. Showed feel for manipulating the slot with athleticism and accuracy. Solid carry.
Defense: Solid bend in the hips. Seems high at times, but length in the arms allows for good coverage. Works off inside left hip, soft hands, funnels to midsection. Athletic exchange and release.
ATH: 1.71 and 4.12 in the 10 and 30 yard splits. 28.00 max vertical.
