Physical: Recent Millersville University commit profiles as a power-arm/possible two-way in an athletic, strong, and projectable 6-3, 205lb frame. 7.08 runner in the 60-yard dash.
Offensively: RHH - Starts from a balanced, crouched stance with the hands pre-set with rhythm above the shoulder. Utilized an easy lift and replace stride getting coiled to a powerful load position before initiating through a violent, flat path into the hitting zone. Generated a standout round (56% hard hit rate) while landing a loud barrel 360 feet to the LCF gap for his longest blast of the round. Hard pull-side contact to the LCF gap and reached a 95 mph bat-exit velocity per Trackman Baseball. Middle of the order potential adding good bat to ball skills.
Defensively: Operated with range, clear pace while staying low postured in the approach; presented the glove hand early and funneled inward, allowing a plus arm (87 mph, lengthy, high ¾ slot) to carry to the target. Handled plays on the run from a different, lower slot as well.
Pitching: RHP - Begins off the middle/left side of the rubber with some pace to the delivery; gets to a medium/high stack with slight hip coil and generates violence/intent down the slope showing off high level athleticism/flexibility in the movements. Arm-talent plays, evidenced by consistent swing/miss on the FB (85-87, T88mph; natural cut) while pairing a sharp 71-74 mph CB around 2469rpms with ability to throw for strikes. Getting better each time out, typically seeing high strikeout rates regardless of success.
8/02/20
Physical: Large and durable 6-foot-3, 205-pound frame with athleticism throughout the movements and an imposing presence on the bump.
Pitching: RHP - Quick pace throughout the delivery, side rocker step to initiate into a medium leg lift at the top of the stack with minor hip coil, gets quickly down the mound with impressive backside leg drive and good extension on the release, front side can open early on occasion. Utilized a high ¾ arm-slot with plenty of life and hand speed out of a full arm circle. FB ranged from 84-86 T88 mph with above average play above the belt (upwards of 2521 spin per Trackman Baseball) and paired it with a sharp 71-73 mph downer breaking ball with 12/6 shape on occasion / has the ability to be a strikeout offering with swing and miss spin. Countered with a solid third offering which may be his best; a 77-79 mph CH commanded with arm-side fade down in the zone. With continued improvement on the command overall, Oliver will keep an upward trajectory in the rankings as he has shown stuff that is already there.
6/15/20
Physical: 6-foot-2, 203 pounds; long frame with room for more strength. 7.33 runner in the 60.
Offensively: RHH. Upright, even base; Medium stride. average effort with quick hands, swing works on an uphill plane after contact; 14 degree bat angle into the zone via Blast Motion. Oliver is able to produce 8.6 G’s of force with an on-plane efficiency of 48%. Consistent, hard line drives; average Trackman exit velocity of 87 MPH; peak exit velo was 94 MPH.
Defensively: Slightly crouched, even base; Deliberate approach of the ball. solid hands, smooth transfer; long arm swing with a 3/4 arm slot. INF - 90 MPH.
Pitching: Sets up in the middle of the rubber and uses a quick drop step to get into an uptempo delivery. Moderate take back with a high 3/4 arm slot. FB: T 88 MPH, 85-87 MPH. Shows life through the zone. CB: 69-72 MPH. Big 12-6 breaker. CH: 79-80 MPH. Arm side run.
2/16/20
6-foot-2, 203-pound right-handed hitter starts from a square stance and uses a knee-to-knee stride to begin. Displayed a gap-to-gap approach with a solid lower half and swings with intent. Registered a bat exit velocity of 86 mph and ran a 7.36 60-yard dash. Played through the baseball routinely at third base with active feet and above average 88 mph arm strength across the diamond.
3/02/19
5-foot-11, 170-pound right-handed hitter starts from a square stance and begins with a heel-raise stride. Some lower half glide leads to an arm bar and length to the swing. Registered a bat exit velocity of 72 mph and ran a 7.62 60-yard dash. Showcased capable actions at third base with accurate 76 mph arm strength across the diamond. The righty sat 73-76 from an over-the-top arm slot with significant fall to the first base line. Fastball showed some cut as did his changeup thrown at near fastball arm speed sitting 68-69. Curveball showed gradual break at 63-65 with 11/5 rotation.
