Corbin McAlpine RHP/3B

08/01/2018 - Baseball Factory National World Series at Pirate City - Session 2 (Ages 14-18) Corbin is a strong, athletic two-way prospect who has made some significant strides as a player. He shows feel on the mound with the ability to throw either of his pitches for strikes in any count. His delivery has good tempo as he stays in sync and directional towards the plate, working down in the zone. He features a fastball in the low 80’s with arm side action and an 11-5 curveball with late break to produce ground balls and put hitters away. At the dish, his bat speed jumps out as he explodes through the zone on a level path to crush line drives all over the field. He is short to the ball and his lower half generates good pop to drive the ball for extra base ability. At the hot corner, he has firm hands to field and handle hard hit balls down the line, showing a quick exchange to throw. His arm is accurate across the diamond and he feeds the DP well. Speed and agility drills will improve quickness and range to get to every ball. Corbin is an intriguing, young prospect who has a bright future ahead of himself.
