Nov 2020 Report
Evaluator: Rhys White
Age: 23 yr
Height: 6-3
Weight: 200 lbs
Hits/Throws: R/R
Acquired: 2019 Draft - Round 4
RuleV: 2022
Physical Description: Tall and lean with long levers. Lanky with some room for physical projection. Could easily handle 15 more pounds of good muscle.
Hit: Long-limbed but keeps things synced up. Shows the ability to drive balls thrown in the inner third, especially fastballs. Flashes average coverage of the plate. Will chase pitches up in the zone, especially the high fastball. He frequently struggles to recognize spin and will get fooled especially with breaking stuff away. Draws his fair share of walks and works his fair share of deep counts. Grade: 40
Power: Struggles to hit for power to all fields, is at his best when he can launch balls to the pull side where he gets to his power to play. Does show the ability to lift the ball, and doesn't just rely on bat-speed or raw strength to access power. The plan to get to the power is simple, jump fastballs that are thrown on the inner third. When he does jump on one he shows good power and can take the ball out of any ballpark. Grade: 55
Field: As a professional, he has spent most of his time playing center field but may have to move into a corner. In a corner, he has more than enough lateral agility and makes good reads off the bat that he could be an above-average defender there. Lacks the overall athleticism to play centerfield on a consistent basis at the major league level. If he fills out he will definitely have to move to a corner where his arm will play. Grade: 50
Arm: Arm is more than enough to play any outfield spot. He makes accurate throws and gets the ball in quickly. The throws have good arch and carry, and he can from time to time deliver a dart when needed. Grade: 50
Run: He is a good, not great runner. He has a quick stride that he uses well. He has solid baserunning instincts. Has a good understanding of when to tag up and when not to. Rarely gets caught stealing and has good jumps when he goes to steal. Grade: 50
Overall: As things stand he is closer to a role player than a major league regular. He can play in center but is better in a corner. Will show some power and some speed but lacks the hit tool to be a consistent major leaguer. At his best he is a fourth outfielder with slight upside for a low end regular.
