03/20/2022 - All-In Membership - Trenton, NJ Maalakai is a 1B who will graduate in 2023. Medium frame athletic build with strength present and room to add throughout. At 1B, he starts with active feet and takes aggressive angles to baseball. Showed good lateral range, with good glove actions, and fields from a square fielding position. A quick arm stroke into a 3/4 release point with on-line throws to second base. Presents a good target at first base. A right-handed hitter, he starts with an athletic and even stance. Smooth timing to swing, with a short/square glide step, and has a fast barrel through the hitting zone. He gets on-plane early, with good extension out front, as he sprayed balls to all fields with a bat exit velocity up to 76mph. With another year of growth and development, this corner infielder should have a bright future on the baseball field.
