Lale Esquivel, Grapevine (TX), 2026
Positional Profile: 3B/OF RHH/OF-Inf…will add strength for big/physical build. Like the tools. Upside present. Opportunities present for adjustments at the plate to increase hard contact consistency. For me, better suited defensively for OF, not discounting infield play, big body moves better in OF. Like the bat/power combo in future.
Body: 6-5, 224-pounds. Good build/frame to add strength. Solid now, will have strong body in future with maturity and added strength.
Hit: RHH. Sinks in legs with stride. Would recommend sinking earlier or starting in crouched stance…at times sinking into legs late with head coming down and ball on its way. Rotational back foot, does a good job of using lower 1/2 in swing, Bat/hand speed present along with bat strength. Late movement with hands creates vertical launch creating length to swing. Barrel takes decent path to zone from launch position. Aggressive swinger with pull approach, would like to see working all fields. Will impact the baseball in future, how good of a hitter and consistency of impact will be determined by developing all field approach. 74.9 mph bat speed with 15 G's of rotational acceleration.
Power: 99 max exit velocity, averaged 90.7 mph. 367' max distance. Lot like with raw tools at plate. Bat/hands speed and bat strength present. Opportunities for adjustments present to increase consistency. Upside.
Arm: RH. INF-91 mph. OF-94 mph. OF…Solid avg arm with accuracy present. Raw arm strength will continue to improve as he matures and gains strength. INF..varies arm action, compact circle to occ cutoff circle, works fine, throws show carry present with fringe avg accuracy. Did not show ability to throw from all angles.
Defense: OF…moves well to baseball. Breaks down to field baseball well. Feet work well throwing. Steady corner OF. INF…feet work fine getting body into position to field, feet do decent job of playing thru baseball. Hands work okay, fields baseball deep, can improve fielding out front. Shows fair body control/agility, this will improve. Feet show fair foot speed/quickness.
ATH: 7.19 runner in the 60. 1.69 and 3.96 in the 10 and 30 yard splits. Solid start, acceleration. Runs hard. 25.00 max vertical.
