12/27/2022 - Baseball Factory West Coast Winter Classic Phillip is a 1B/RHP out of Greenwood, MO who plays higher than his 2029 grade level. He recently competed with 2027 and 2028 grads and held his own very well. He played with energy and was a great teammate. In the field, he squares his body to the baseball and fields out in front. He secures the baseball well and creates momentum on his throws. His arm slot is over-the-top and his arm strength fits his position. He also is accurate to his target with carry. On the mound, he operates with a two-pitch mix from a high ¾ slot. His mechanics are simple and repeatable. His FB sat 64-68 with sink. His CB sat 54-56 with 10-4 action and with further work, it can become a potential out pitch for him. At the plate, he is locked in and can drive the baseball. Collected 5 hits on the weekend and used the entire field. His bat speed is solid, (74 exit velo) and creates hard contact. Showed solid instincts on the bases and swiped 6 bases and scored the weekends final run to complete the Royals 3 game sweep (scored from 1st on a double). Phillip can benefit from a weight room program with low weights to learn the proper techniques of working out. Overall, he is a great young man and scouts feel he has a future in the game.
