Grip strength is a measure of a players bat control and ability to transfer power and speed during impact, measured in pounds of force generated; collected with elbow bent at 90 degrees.
Physical: Wiry athletic 5-foot-11, 175-pound frame. 6.86 runner in the 60-yard dash.
Offensively: RHH. Balanced, even stance, as the hands worked at the shoulder to start. Utilized a toe-tap stride to initiate his swing through a flat, twitchy path into the hitting zone. Fluid hips cleared to the pull-side for a fly ball approach and backspin off the bat. Recorded a T92MPH EV via Trackman, up to 320FT during BP.
Defensively: The outfielder made a highlight reel, diving catch in Game One vs. Team Illinois in left field. Set a personal best of a 90MPH OF arm out of a H ¾ slot. Chance to handle at least two OF positions with easy reads.
Physical: 5-foot-11, 185 pounds; Lean, muscular build. 7.09 runner in the 60.
Offensively: RHH. Even setup, with feet wide spread; bat positioned at a 45 degree angle. Extended take back of the hands with an up and down stride for timing. Stays behind the ball while showing an aggressive lower half. Showed a compact swing path with a two handed finish. More line drives than flyballs and groundballs with a peak exit velocity of 96 MPH via Trackman. Elite blast metrics, high EV and hard hit %. Swing is very compact with an efficient bat path. This is an elite looking hitter as a freshman.
Defensively: Starts with an upright /tall setup; walks into ready position while showing active feet. Hands work through the ball with a clean transfer. Long arm swing from a high 3/4 arm slot. OF - 88 MPH. An elite level athlete patrolling the outfield. Factor in the nearly sub 7 60YD time with the high level arm strength, big time player to watch going forward.
