Zachary is a 2023 prospect out of Hackettstown, NJ who improved his foot speed as he ran his best 60 time to date. In the OF, he takes proper routes/angles in tracking down balls. He works to get behind balls but needs to play through with momentum to his target. He moves well laterally with range improving as he increases foot quickness. Glove action is firm and presents out front. Throws are accurate but will benefit by building more arm strength through a long toss program. At the plate, he shows an athletic setup. Hands are quick and work through a level swing path. He makes consistent hard contact and stays inside the ball through a line drive approach. Power will increase as he utilizes his lower half more efficiently. We look forward to seeing what the future holds as Zachary enters his junior year.
