12/27/2024 - Baseball Factory Holiday Classic at Pirate City David is a versatile 2025 third baseman and right-handed pitcher from Cookeville, TN, who worked hard to refine his skills at the Baseball Factory Pirate City Holiday Camp. On the mound, David shows good life on his fastball, which reaches up to 84 mph, and mixes in a curveball, change-up, and splitter. In 2 2/3 innings of work, he struck out two batters, though he will need to focus on improving his accuracy and locating all of his pitches more effectively. Defensively, David starts with solid footwork, staying on the balls of his feet, and consistently fields the ball out front. He has a strong arm with good carry across the diamond, making him a reliable presence at third base. At the plate, David displays explosive bat speed and gap-to-gap power, hitting into his front side while maintaining good awareness of the strike zone. He drew three walks and made consistent contact during the games. With another season of growth and development, David’s skills will continue to improve, and he has a bright future ahead both on the mound and in the field.
