Jaron is a gamer who hustles all over the field. He works hard day in and day out - working to be the best he can be. At 2B - Jaron hustles around the GB into a square fielding position. He secures the ball with soft/sure hands and gathers well. Throws are accurate as he works through the ball and gains ground toward 1B. With the bat, Jaron shows a square setup with patience waiting for his pitch. He swings on a level path and works to engage his lower 1/2 to generate torque with some pop off of the barrel. Added strength (physical maturity) will aid in getting more power at the plate. On the mound, Jaron fills up the zone and throws strikes consistently. He works his FB to both sides of the plate and challenges hitters to put the ball in play. Breaking ball shows 11/5 shape complimenting his FB well. Finishing with more extension on his follow through will help to improve effectiveness on all pitches. DeBerry (2020 grad) is a hard worker who still has a ton of time to develop his skills.
