08/21/2016 - Interactive Video Program - Lebanon (Nashville), TN Carson is a 3B/RHP who will graduate in 2021. In the field, Carson uses his feet efficiently and gets in a square position to field the ball. He has soft hands that he presents out front to field and has a clean exchange to throw from over the top. He gains momentum well on his throws which allows them to be consistently accurate and online to his target. At the plate, Carson sets up in a square, athletic stance and takes a short stride to the ball. He is fluid getting into his load as he maintains center balance and finishes with a firm front side. He takes a short, direct path to the ball which leads to square contact and line drives. On the mound, Carson shows a three pitch mix with his fastball sitting form 60-63 mph with good sinking action. Breaking ball ranges form 54-56 mph with 11-5 movement. Changeup sits from 53-55 mph with good sinking action. Overall abilities will improve with work on the following:
