10/26/2014 - College PREP - Stillwater (Minneapolis), MN Alex is a broad 6'/175 lbs 3B/RHP that will graduate in 2016. Offensively, he takes the ball the other way with his approach and makes contact. He gets the barrel to the zone, but could become more direct to generate greater bat speed. Defensively, he makes plays and throws online to his target. He works hard to center the ball to field and tries to get his hands in front, but gets deep at times. On the hill, he throws three pitches from the low 3/4 arm slot. He topped out at 65 with his fastball and spun a 9-3 CB from 58-64. He also mixed in a CH from 56-60 but tipped the pitch by slowing his arm speed. He keeps his eyes on the target and is balanced in his finish. A couple of mechanical touch-ups - such as coming to a good balance point early and lengthening his stride - will improve feel and pitch ability. Overall - Copa has two years to add strength to his broad frame and consistency to his ability for the next level.
