Shada impressed both as a position player and pitcher. Shada has a consistent repeatable swing and hit line drives through both gaps. His infield play showed quality actions with a quick first step. On the mound, Shada’s delivery is clean and repeatable and was able to not only throw strikes with all three of his offerings, but hit spots and manipulate the baseball with his curveball and change up. He really has a chance to pop once his body and frame mature as Shada has a quality feel for things on the baseball field both as a hitter, defender and right-handed pitcher.
