05/21/2017 - Interactive Video Program - Redwood City (San Francisco/San Jose), CA Easton is a tall, lean RHP/OF. Defensively in the OF, he takes active routes/angles as he tracks down fly balls. He fields the GB in square position and fires throws on line to his target. On the hill, this RHP gathers over the rubber and delivers from a 3/4 arm slot with clean arm action. He tucks his glove as he works in line and finishes strong towards home plate. With the stick, Easton is a power hitter displaying an athletic setup with smooth rhythm to load. His barrel whips fast to the ball as he swings on a direct path and drives pitches with hard, solid contact to all parts of the field. Overall abilities in his game will improve with work on the following.
