Zain Kureshi-Smith, Farragut (TN), 2026
Positional Profile: 2B/OF
Body: 5-9, 144-pounds. Lots of room to continue to fill out with quality muscle mass on a wiry and quick twitched frame.
Hit: RHH. Starts with an athletic stance feet further than shoulder width apart with his bat held at 45 degrees just behind his rear shoulder. Weight shifts until back knee is over the foot pushes his hands into a loaded position. Good seperation at footplant before lauch. Scissor action with back leg as swing completes. Up the middle approach that shows ability to catch and drive balls out front. Scissor action with lower half creates room for upper half to work. More batspeed and strength to come. 67.5 mph bat speed with 12 G's of rotational acceleration.
Power: 87 max exit velocity, averaged 81.6 mph. 253' max distance.
Arm: RH. INF-78 mph. OF-79 mph. Quick arm action behind the body to a 3/4 arm slot W/ on target throws.
Defense: Works through the ball well, short crow hop prior to throw.
ATH: 6.83 runner in the 60. 1.62 and 4.79 in the 10 and 30 yard splits. 30.10 max vertical.
