Francisco
Luareano-Pina

Francisco is an explosive 5-foot-10 175 pound middle infielder who ran a 4.20 home to 1B. Offensively- Francisco sets up in an even and balanced stance with his hands just off his shoulder. Creates spacing with straight back load and uses a heel lift/up-down stride for timing. Maintains balance throughout swing, explodes on contact with a short stroke and an elongated finish. Exit velocity was 91 MPH with most of his contact of the line drive/gap variety. Extra base potential every time he steps to the plate. Defensively- Left side defender with strong arm. Active feet, timing out his approach and then accelerating through the ball. Can get a bit loose with his actions at times, disrupting the timing of his footwork into his throwing motion. Good athlete that could plug in in the OF if needed. Positional velocity peaked at 84 MPH.
