06/16/2019 - Omaha National World Series - Session 1 (Ages 14-18) Karsten continues to show a prospect with improvements in his baseball abilities. Foot speed has improved as he ran his best 60 time to date, now a 7.07 runner. At the plate, power potential is now well above average through an athletic setup. He has strong/centered balance with fluid rhythm to load. Hands are quick (86 mph exit velocity) and work through a level swing path with lower half working well through the swing. He has strength in his swing with gap to gap pop. In the OF, he takes a quick first step and moves lightly on the balls of his feet. Range is a plus as reads balls well off the bat and covers a lot of ground. Transfer is smooth with strong throws (89 mph velocity) through his cut off. On the mound, arm strength has improved as he threw his top velocity to date at 81 mph. Fastball shows good arm side run. Breaking ball displays 11/5 shape with gradual break. Stock on the mound will continue to rise as he builds more arm strength through a long toss program. Mental makeup is a plus as he has a great personality, is very coachable and works hard to be the best player he can be.
