11/14/18-Stocky, 5-foot-9, Lalama has a compact frame. He has capable actions but speed, range and arm strength lend better to second or third base. Truth be told, his future likely lies behind the plate. His strength and frame provide the durability for the position. He is a developing receiver with a quick transition to throw. His developing arm strength might play down the line from behind the dish. He relies heavily on a quick exchange to keep pop times down. As a hitter, Lalama can gain more from a more active lower half as he strides open, losing his front side in a pull-oriented approach. He loads his hands to a low, nearly locked position which provides a rigid strength to his swing.
