12/20/2017 - Baseball Factory Winter Classic - Session 1 (Ages 12-14) Jacob is a coachable 3B/RHP prospect who worked hard on his skills during his time at the Baseball Factory Winter Classic. In the field, Jacob attacks ground balls and fields in an athletic position. He make accurate throws across the diamond and keeps them on-line to his target. Jacob can improve defensively by fielding the ball out in front of his body. At the plate, this LHH sets up in a square stance and takes a square stride. He tracks the ball well and sprays to all fields. Jacob can improve as a hitter by working a load into his swing. On the mound, Jacob gathers over the rubber well and separates his hands on time. He works with a clean arm action as he extends through on his release, working inline towards the plate. His fastball tops out at 64mph as he works to keep it around the zone. Jacob can improve as a pitcher by driving his lower half towards the plate more. With four more years to develop, Jacob has the time and potential to further progress his skills on the field.
