11/09/2017 - Baseball Factory Select Training & Competition at Pirate City (Ages 14-18) Adam is a coachable player who can make adjustments quickly. On the mound, this lefty is aggressive, filling up the zone with strikes and challenging hitters to swing the bat. He maintains good tempo and works at his pace. FB tops out at 73 mph while showing some sinking action. Changeup is thrown with FB arm speed helping to create deception. Curveball shows to be his best pitch with 1/7 shape as he can throw it for strikes in any count. He has a solid pick-off move with quick footwork and keeps runners close. In the OF, Adam takes good angles to work into position behind the fly-ball. He secures the ball with 2-hands and has a clean exchange to throw. Gaining more ground with a crow-hop will help to get more into his throws. As a hitter, Adam displays a tall stance with a good load. He swings against a firm front side, connects and creates good extension through contact. Working to swing on a shorter/more direct path with more bat speed will help to increase power. Adam has a solid all-around skill-set that should provide success in this his junior year. He will toe the rubber, throw strikes and give his team a chance every time his number is called.
