12/27/2016 - Under Armour Baseball Factory Recruiting Classic Johnny is a wiry, athletic SS/RHP prospect who consistently outworks everyone else on the field and shows great leadership. He shows impressive feel at the plate, able to get the barrel to the ball consistently while keeping his swing simple but powerful. He is aggressive at the plate, attacking the pitch he is looking for and trying to drive it. His bat speed is evident through the zone and his path is on plane to the ball, resulting in consistent, hard contact and line drives all over the field. At short, his athleticism shines through with striking lateral agility and quick feet to give himself huge range. He takes good angles to the ball and works through it while showing quick hands to exchange and release to throw accurately to his target. On the mound, his smooth actions and easy rhythm lead to a repeatable delivery and solid control to stay ahead of hitters. He gets down the mound quickly and his ball explodes to the plate, making his curveball an out pitch as hitters must respect his fastball that tops out at 91 mph. Slowing his tempo from the stretch will allow his arm to keep up with his body help his stuff play up. Johnny is an intriguing prospect who has a well-rounded game and upside for the next level.
