Scouting Report
& Links |
|
|
|
| |
|
|
|
|
| |
Physical Description: Strong,
athletic frame. Has some projection remaining in his upper body.
Looks the part.
Hit: Starts square with
a high leg kick. Has quick hands and plus bat speed. Very quiet
at the start and then explodes through the ball with little
wasted motion. Advanced approach for age. Can recognize spin and
knows the strike zone. Will take a walk, rarely extends out of
the strike zone chasing pitches. Potential average hit tool.
Power: Plus raw power. Potential
above-average power in game. Strong, has the ability to drive
the ball.
Run: Below-average speed. Not
a major part of his game.
Field: Soft
hands, average range. Fundamentally sound, professional
defender.
|
|
Arm: Average arm strength. Not a standout arm,
but strong and accurate enough for third base.
Career Notes: Was
committed to Florida State before signing with Sox. Participated
in the Fall Instructional League in 2018.
Summation: Has the potential to develop into an average
regular over time. Long way to go developmentally, but shows
several average to better tools and carries himself like a
professional. Looks like he belongs on the field even when
facing pitchers much older than him. Puts together quality
at-bats and knows the strike zone. Could hit for average and
power and play solid defense at third base.
