Aidan Eshelman SS/RHP

01/27/2019 - National Tryout - Houston, TX Aidan worked out at SS and on the mound during his last workout with The Factory. Defensively, Aidan showed good pre-pitch actions, a low fielding position, and the ability to take good angles to the ball. He works the double plays well, his exchange is quick and clean, and he throws with carry and accuracy to his target. On the mound, Aidan has a easy/smooth delivery, a clean arm circle, and he lands with a proper length stride toward home plate. Offensively, Aidan has an open stance, good balance, and a compact swing. He has a direct barrel, makes square contact, and he uses his lower body.

07/05/2018 - California Select Training & Competition - Session 1 (Ages 12-14) Aidan is a talented and hardworking 2025 2-way player. At SS, Aidan is on time with his pre-step, reads the ball off the bat well, and presents a low/early glove. He works from the ground up, has a clean exchange, and throws from multiple arm angles. At the plate, Aidan starts in an athletic stance and loads his hands back into the drive position. He uses his lower half, stays compact, and creates backspin on the ball. He stays balanced through contact and is a line drive hitter. On the bump, Aidan gathers over the rubber, separates on time, and extends thru his delivery. He works north to south and commands the bottom half of the zone. Aidan has a high baseball IQ and will continue to improve with experience. We hope to see his progress in the future.
