11/18/2012 - College PREP - Germantown (Memphis), TN Colton is a tall/athletic/broad/solid built left-handed pitcher/Outfielder. In the outfield, he has active feet, takes an aggressive first step, covers ground, and has sure hands fielding athletically. His throws are accurate with carry from the high 3/4 arm slot with long/loose arm action. His exchange could become quicker and he could work on playing lower in his fielding position. On the mound, he throws three pitches with his fastball topping out at 76 MPH with late arm side run. His 2/8 curve-ball sits from 60-62 MPH and is thrown consistently for strikes. While his change-up is thrown with fastball arm speed and is effectively lower in velocity sitting from 68-69 MPH. He has good back arm action, but needs more front side extension. His shoulders are level, he stays in line and he has a smooth tempo. He needs to work on controlling his off-speed pitches and finishing more completely. Offensively, Colton has a square/tall setup, good balance and a level swing path. He generates fast bat speed and uses his lower half fully. At times, he is in and out of the zone. He is consistently early, and needs to be more patient, utilizing contact points. In all, Colton projects best as an outfielder, with an ability to hit and hit with a little power.
