Ames Dabrowiak, MONTGOMERY BELL ACADEMY (TN), 2028 Positional Profile: 3B Body: 5-11, 160-pounds. Lean frame with long limbs, athletic mover with lots of potential physically as he develops. Hit: RHH. Begins with a shoulder width stance with his hands extended behind the body. Small stride forward sees the upper body and hands leak before the swing launches. Loses some tension in the upper body as it leaks with the forward stride. Has a flatter bat path that produces solid contact to the pullside. Much more strength in the tank as the body and swing develops. Power: 84 max exit velocity, averaged 74.7 mph. 304' max distance. Arm: RH. INF-71 mph. Quick release produces accurate throws to first with a low ¾ arm slot. Defense: Smooth athletic movements in the infield, easy range to either side. He presents the glove early and works well to and through the ball. ATH: 7.97 runner in the 60.
