05/14/2017 - Interactive Video Program - Poughkeepsie, NY Marco is a C/SS who will graduate in 2021. Behind the plate, he shows a solid/wide base staying in a low position. He receives the pitch with soft hands, earning strikes and fires throws down to 2B with a quick release. At SS, he presents his hands and tries to work into a square fielding position. He has a clean exchange turning smooth DP's and releases throws with loose arm action. With the stick, Marco displays a quiet/athletic setup. He uses his lower 1/2, whips his barrel quickly through the zone and drives pitches from gap to gap. Overall abilities in his game will improve with work on the following.
Infield 1. Prep pitch 2. Get into square fielding position 3. Quicker footwork Catching 1. More range 2. Clean exchange to throw 3. Arm strength (long toss) Offense 1. Work on timing 2. Level out swing path 3. Extend through contact
