Hood put on a show in batting practice, hammering the ball to all fields with his strong right-handed bat. His flat and direct bat path allow for good in-game skill, both in terms of contact and power, the latter of which showed in his exit velocity, which ranked among the showcase’s leaders (91 mph max). Though Hood’s bat will likely carry him to the next level, he showed strong ability to play first base. His soft hands and strong footwork around the bag show a quality feel for the position.
