12/04/2011 - College PREP - McCook (Chicago), IL Connor continues to show similarities to his earlier evaluations. He did improve in both arm strength - going from 79-83 mph and he lowered his sixty time to 6.98. He continues to impress with his arm and his defense showing good pre-pitch preparation, active feet and an aggressive style of play. He has good life out of the hand making accurate throws to his target. At the plate, he shows a proper load with good bat speed but he needs to continue to work on improving his consistency in making hard contact. He collapses some on the backside causing an uphill swing path. He needs to work on getting through the ball better with his lower half which will help flatten that swing to get better extension and consistently drive the ball to the gaps. He is still young and has good baseball instinct and enjoys playing the game.
