Grip Strgth (LH)
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.
Grip Strgth (RH)
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.
Positional Profile: SS/RHP RHH/INF..young, will add strength. Solid defender in future. Good approach to hit with solid contact in games. Keep working and developing. Fun to watch develop over next few years. Young RHP with upside. Can firm delivery improving command/control. Lead hip opens, runs away from arm. Arm speed developing. FB will play in future with added velocity. Shows ability to spin baseball, must work to stay on top adding tilt. Change will be solid.
Body: 5-9, 157-pounds. Good build/frame to add strength in future. Projects to have good build.
Delivery: Side step rocker, gets to post up position with back leg, slight drop and drive movement. Cast stride leg out and down, stride lands past midline, opening lead hip. Spinoff finish.
Arm Action: RH. Full cricle with length, hooks to backside. LTQ slot, crossbody finish. Shows some arm speed. Occ low elbow push.
FB: T85, 81-83 mph. Solid spin present. FB shows tail/sink to arm side. Velo will continue to improve. Must firm FB command for future success. T2202, 2119 average rpm.
CB: 72-73 mph. Shows ability to spin baseball. Sweep/slurve type action, must work to stay on top of baseball creatine tilt. T2532, 2286 average rpm.
CH: 74-76 mph. Tail/sink action with fair deception. T1792, 1688 average rpm.
ATH: 7.53 runner in the 60. 1.88 and 4.22 in the 10 and 30 yard splits. Runs hard, will improve with added physical strength.
Positional Profile: SS/RHP RHH/INF..young, will add strength. Solid defender in future. Good approach to hit with solid contact in games. Keep working and developing. Fun to watch develop over next few years. Young RHP with upside. Can firm delivery improving command/control. Lead hip opens, runs away from arm. Arm speed developing. FB will play in future with added velocity. Shows ability to spin baseball, must work to stay on top adding tilt. Change will be solid.
Body: 5-9, 157-pounds. Good build/frame to add strength in future. Projects to have good build.
Hit: RHH. Lands in good position to hit after stride. Linear movement to back foot, does and good job of using lower 1/2. Barrel/hands in solid launch position.
