06/13/2009 - Omaha Pro Select Training and Tournament - Week 1 Bice lowered his release times quite a bit - was between 2.15 - 2.31 in January 2009, this time out he was between 1.96 and 2.16. His exchange was quick, his feet had good life, and his arm strength was improved as well. Can work to finish his throws out front better - has catch and throw ability to work with. At the plate, he showed good presence in the batter's box and competed very well - has some feel to hit. Can work to eliminate slight bat wrap, hands can reach more natural position in setup as well - these adjustments should help him shorten his stroke some. He jumped on the mound for us and did a good job of challenging hitters. Was around the zone with a 71-76 fastball and a 63-65 curve with downward action. Improved to Class 5 level as a catcher, improved catch and throw abilities increased his value.
