Listed at a physical 6-foot, 185 pounds, the infielder started his day by running a 6.64 in the 60-yard dash and went on to record one of the event’s top rounds of batting practice. From the right-handed box, Hencke worked a toe-tap from a tall setup with a flat swing path. He turns tightly to the ball with authority and generates backspin flights with considerable leverage throughout his swing. During the infield session, he traveled low to the ball with clean infield actions and a very solid glove. Hencke was up to 87 mph across the diamond with a clean arm action, showcasing an upside skill set as an impressive athlete. He hopped onto the mound to conclude his day where he was up to 87.8 mph with a short wrinkle curveball to go along with it.
