05/19/2024 - All-In National Showcase - Nashville, TN Ashton is a strong, athletic C/SS who will graduate in 2024. At the plate is where he shows best, displaying solid hitting / power potential through a squared setup. Hands are quick and work through a level swing path. He has strength in his swing and makes consistent hard contact with power showing best to the pull side. Lower half works well through the swing with an aggressive hip turn. At SS, he displays clean / smooth actions. Feet are active as he displays proper footwork as he works to square ground balls and but needs to play through with his body. Glove action is clean but needs to present more out front. He moves well laterally and utilizes his foot quickness (6.85 60 time) in covering a lot of ground. Behind the dish, he presents a soft/sure mitt showing pocket awareness sticking pitches. He uses his body through the blocking process but needs to work to get body down sooner. Pop times showed in 2.43 range with accuracy on his throws. Times will continue to drop as he builds more arm strength through a long toss program. Ashton has potential with a lot of room to progress his game.
