05/25/2013 - Little League® Experience - S. Williamsport Tyler is a young player who is continuing to develop and is very coachable. Defensively, he has an athletic fielding position and effective footwork around the bag. He does a good job of communicating before the pitch and during the play. Practicing agility drills will increase his lateral quickness/range. As he transitions to the bigger diamond he will need to improve his path to the ball. On the mound, he separates well, has good tempo and stays in line to the plate allowing him to throw strikes. By developing a better follow through and getting his chest out over his front leg, his arm motion will lengthen and increase velocity. Long toss is also a good way to improve arm strength. At the plate, Dolan has an athletic stance and a good load. He barrels the ball up consistently and his bat stays level through the zone. His hitting grades will improve if he can stay closed and drive the ball to all fields consistently, rather than opening up and pulling the ball. Overall, Tyler possesses the right mindset to improve, with plenty of time to develop.
