RuleV: On 40-Man Roster
Physical Description: Tall, lanky build. Rounded shoulders. Not body type to add much weight or strength. Athletic body.
Hit: Wide stance; hands at the head; slight crouch with knee bend as he loads up to swing. Average bat speed. No real big trigger or load. Short, flat stroke, slaps it where it goes. Strength through upper body swing. Grade: 40
Power: Bat speed & leverage in swings indicates future average power. Strength & quickness. Will get a hold of a few. Gap power now, more to follow. Line drive, alley type. Added strength will give a power boost. Grade: 40
Field: Solid average fielder - good defensive habits. Improving, defensive actions. Good first step read. Has the basic skills needed. Still needs some polish. Grade: 50
Arm: Arm strength is average, good throwing mechanics that keep improving. Playable arm strength for the position. Grade: 50
Run: Smooth runner out of the box, type of speed that makes the defensive rush. Quick first step; Gets good leads. Excel acceleration. Playable speed for his position with good instincts on the basepath. Best tool. Grade: 55
Overall: He shows gap power and above-average power flashes but could use some more upper body strength to continue to develop that based on the swing. He will need to continue to learn the outfield as he can over field his position. Still very raw for centerfield but if he can cut back on his swing and misses, can be an average centerfielder or play the corner at some point if his power numbers can be consistent.
