10/04/2017 - Arizona Sophomore Fall Classic Luke is a very talented 1B/OF prospect who showed very well during his time at the Arizona Sophomore Fall Classic. He is a very coachable player who can take what he's taught and implements it quickly. This LHH steps into the box looking to do some damage. He shows an athletic stance with centered balance. He has fluid rhythm with a smooth load and short, square stride as his lower half leads his swing. He shows explosive bat speed with a direct, on-plane swing path getting good extension at contact. He engages his lower 1/2 well, helping to create pop off of his barrel (exit velocity = 92 mph). He put the barrel on the ball consistently and proved to be a tough out, battling in every AB. At 1B, Luke plays with quick, active footwork covering a wide range laterally. He presents his glove and moves with agile actions as he fields the ball with a firm glove. He trusts his glove and is able to pick out almost every throw in the dirt. Luke is a competitor who will make an impact when he steps onto the diamond.
