03/10/2024 - National Showcase - Kannapolis (Charlotte), NC Ben is a solid, strong, and athletic 2B who will graduate in 2025. At 2B, defensive abilities are solid as he displays clean/smooth actions. Feet are active as he displays proper footwork as he works to square ground balls up but needs to play through with his body. Glove action is clean and presents out front. Range will increase as he improves foot quickness. Throws are accurate through multiple arm angles but will benefit by building more arm strength through a long toss program. At the plate, he shows a squared setup. Hands are loose and work through a level swing path. He has a short direct swing and utilizes all fields through a line drive approach with power showing best to the pull side. Lower half works well through the swing with an aggressive hip turn. Ben has potential with time and room to progress his game.
