11/01/2015 - College PREP - Midland, TX Anthony continues to work hard on his skills. With the bat, this RH swinger has a balanced setup with a solid base. Barrel delivery is quick as he jumps on pitches his likes, squaring the ball up and driving it on a line back up the middle of the field. More power potential is there with more lower 1/2 drive. At the hot corner, Anthony has quick footwork and moves well to his glove-side. He funnels smoothy with a quick/clean exchange to throw. Continuing to develop his footwork will increase his lateral range. On the bump, this RHP has 3 pitches in which he fills up the zone with. FB now tops out at 76 mph while showing slight tail. Breaking ball has 11/5 shape with good action. He stays directional and repeats his delivery well. Only a 2018 grad - Avila is a hard worker who still has time to develop.
