02/13/2022 - Official College Recruiting Membership - Monticello, IA Sam is a RHP/3B who will graduate in 2023. Tall frame stocky build with strength present. At 3B, showed efficient feet and ability to close distance on batted balls. Works around baseball, with good direction towards target, and showed good lateral range. Short arm action in back as he works into a high 3/4 release point coming forward. He made accurate/on-line throws with an arm velocity up to 80mph. On the mound, he keeps his eyes on target throughout his delivery and separates his hands on-time. He has a clean arm stroke, with good extension out front, and showed ability to repeat his delivery. Flashed a FB that sat 77-79mph with command of both sides of the plate, a 9/3 shaped slider that flashes good depth, and a changeup with sinking action that he throws with FB arm speed. At the plate, he hits from an upright and even stance. Fluid timing to swing, with activated hands, and is quick to ball. A direct barrel path enables him to hit line drives to all fields with a bat exit velocity up to 80mph. With another year of development, we foresee Sam making huge strides on the baseball field.
