01/18/2013 - Arizona National Spring Training Riley is a young two-way player who has a pitchers frame with a lot of potential. On the mound Riley delivers from a 3/4 arm slot which allows for a heavy ball with movement. He works down the mound in line with level shoulders. If Riley smooths out some of his actions and completes his finish he could be very good on the bump. In the outfield Riley has a loose arm with short action, and from his 3/4 arm slot is very accurate. He squares up to the ball well and uses his lower half to both field and throw. Riley could improve by getting his glove out sooner and being lower to the ball. As with all young players Riley would benefit from speed/strength training and a long toss program to get faster and stronger. At the plate Riley shows great hand-eye coordination with solid contact. He starts from an open stance with a short, square stride. His hands work well thru the zone, but he does have a lot of movement in his swing. By continuing to work on using his lower half more in his swing and simplifying some of his movements Riley could be a dangerous hitter. As a 2016 graduate, Riley has time to work on his strength, speed and refining his mechanics. If he does he could be one to watch in the future.
