Zack
Whitacre

8.26.18 - Whitacre was a standout at this event. He ran a 6.80-60, was clocked at 85 mph from the outfield, to go along with a 83 mph across the diamond. In the infield, he demonstrates soft hands and is very confident with his glove. He moves really well and played through the ball. 

Offensively, Whitacre initiates his swing from a neutral position striding away from hands. Sound fundamentally, his bat stays in the hitting zone nicely. His body stays compact and he uses his mid section well. 

 
10/08/17  Whitacre  a 5-foot-10, 160-pound SS/RHP from Frankfort HS hit .406 with 41 hits and 48 runs scored as a freshman. Whitacre went on to hit .349 with 29 hits and 22 runs scored as a sophomore. He worked out of high 3/4 slot off mound with FB sitting 79-80 mph and being relatively straight. CB at 67-69 had 12-6 shape and at best sharp break with moderate depth. CH 71-73 was thrown with excellent sell and considerable arm side fade. As Whitacre's best pitch on this day it was commanded down and away to arm side. Delivery was repeated well. There is first base fall in follow through.
