05/25/2008 - College PREP - Phoenix, AZ Chase shows as a two way player in the middle of the infield and on the mound. He currently projects only in the infield for the next level. Arm strength is near solid average and would benefit from a strict long toss program to continue to build arm strength. Defensive ability is solid average and he shows an idea with his glove and feet through the fielding process. At the plate, Chase does a nice job of keeping his hands inside the baseball and utilizing all fields. His approach is simple and shows a lot of potential. With an increase in body strength, Barrus power numbers will increase in a hurry. On the mound, Chase shows near average to average ability and we would like to see him concentrate his work in the infield and at the plate.
