Individual Player Evalulation (June 17, 2015) 

Andrew has a classic pitcher's frame with long arms and legs and room for 30-40 pounds to be added on. Is able to repeat his delivery with his 1:30 arm slot and work down hill with his fastball. Curveball features some 12-6 action and change showed some late sink. Once Andrew gets into his body, look for substantial velocity gains. Tends to open up front side and collapse front knee but has the mechanical base to work from. Look for substantial velocity gains as he gets into his body.

As a position player he tracks the ball well with a proper crowhop was able to show some carry on his throws that for the most part stayed online. At 3B he can be a little stiff with his movements, letting the hands get underneath. Did demonstrate good footwork and a serviceable arm though. Andrew is a contact hitter at the plate that can benefit from increased explosion through the ball. Tends to drop bat angle into his body and push through. Room for development here within the bat plane department and through his finish. Long term projectability would be higher on the mound as he may be a late bloomer.
