01/18/2016 - National Tryout Plus - Mesa (Phoenix), AZ Joseph continues to work hard on his skills. Behind the plate, he sits in well with athletic actions tracking pitches into a soft mitt. He covers ground laterally and bodies up pitches in the dirt. He works in-line toward 2B and has a clean transfer with pop times at 2.40. Quickening his release will help those times to continue to drop. At 2B, Joseph hustles to his right and left to get behind GB's. He gathers well and makes accurate throws across the diamond. Offensively, this righty swings against a firm front side which allows him to utilize his lower 1/2. He hits the ball where it's pitched with the ability to drive it the other way. Gonzalez has upside with still time to develop and get stronger to get to where he wants to be.
