06/27/2010 - Team One South 2010 Austin is a thin, INF who plays 1B and 3B. Defensively, Austin moves well laterally, has sure hands, and fluid movements. He gathers himself well, has a good idea, and throws accurately to his target. If Austin can work to field the ball further out in front of his body, and loosen his arm action, we could see a spike in defensive numbers. At the plate, Austin has decent balance and average bat speed. He has a short stroke and a line drive approach. Austin can improve offensively if he can have more direct hands to the ball, improve his consistency, and work the ball to all fields.
