Kasey
Centeno

8/5/17
Improved his stock as much if not more than any Ohio position player this week. The 6.4 runner put together solid at bats, highlighted by a triple into the right center gap. Was a constant threat on the bases, stealing two and taking extra bases with ease.  

8/4/17
Centeno continues to turn heads for Ohio. The two-way prospect started to make waves during Wednesday’s workout where he took a solid BP and ran a 6.49 60-yard dash. Thursday he showed his skill set on the mound. A top of the class athlete with a fast arm. Kasey sat 86-87, topping 88 mph with his fastball and feel for his breaking ball.

6/6/17
A right-handed hitter that starts in an open setup. Uses a leg kick for timing and energy. Hands move slightly back to launch. Bat speed was well above average and his barrel works on a level  path. Consistently produced hard contact in batting practice. Was at his best to the middle of the field. In the outfield he looked comfortable and athletic. Plays through the ball well and gets rid of it quickly. Very athletic presence on the bump. Works through a high-¾ slot with well above average arm speed. Fastball comes out of his hand well and sat 83-86 mph. He showed solid command of the pitch. His best secondary offering was his 11/5 shaped breaking ball. Spins it well and has some depth at 66-68 mph. Produced consistent swing and miss with the pitch.  
60-yard dash: 6.50
Outfield Velocity: 78
Infield Velocity: 81
Exit Velocity: 98

6-foot-1, 180-pound prospect. On the mound, the right handed pitcher features some projectability as he offers an easy effort delivery and quick arm. Uses short arm action while throwing through a ¾ arm slot. Being just a 2019 prospect his velocity should continue to prosper. The 79-83 mph displays a considerable amount of arm-side run. When in the zone, his 62-64 mph  breaking ball shows some sharp, late breaking action. Also mixes in a 71-72 mph changeup. A very athletic infielder. Well above average range. Adequate glove skills at this stage. Right-handed hitter that starts in a wide stance. Uses small leg kick and stride. Hands drift back as leg kick initiates. Transfers weight well through contact. Takes slight uphill path to the ball with aggressive swing. Obvious pop in his bat. Showed solid contact in his BP round. Top exit velocity of 95 mph off the tee.
