02/12/2021 - Baseball Factory Opening Day Classic (HS - West) Gabriel is a stud two-way prospect (LHP/1B) in the 2024 class. On the mound, this lefty uses a solid two-pitch mix with a good presence. FB ranges 79-82 with a high volume of strikes and CB has 1-7 shape with good break. He uses simple/repeatable mechanics allowing him to fill the strike zone and get ahead of hitters. He has the potential to become a complete pitcher that will compete at a high level. At 1B, he starts in an athletic position using smooth footwork around the bag with a good feel for his glove side. He approaches the ball in a low/athletic position, fielding the ball out in front, creating a quick/clean exchange showing off good hands. At the plate, this LHH takes the box in an open position with good balance and comfortable hands, showing good discipline in the box. Gabriel has a controlled rhythm/timing while keeping his weight centered through his lower half, rotating his core to create line-drive type contact to all parts of the field. Gabriel is a very talented athlete with plenty of time to grow and develop his skill set.
