08/03/2016 - Baseball Factory National World Series at Pirate City - Session 1 Joel is a strong, muscular 2018 OF prospect. He uses his strength to generate raw power at the plate and can hit the ball a long way. He shows a good understanding of the strike zone with the ability to track balls into the catcher's glove. His bat is explosive through the zone and he makes consistent contact, hitting the ball hard. Leveling out his swing path will lead to more hard hit line drives that turn into base hits. In the outfield, Joel looks to get behind fly balls and play through to his target. He makes all of the routine plays out there and has quick release to throw with good accuracy. Joel is an interesting prospect who we look forward to watching progress.
