01/15/2010 - Under Armour Pre-Season All-America - 2010 Derek participated in the UA Preseason All-America and showed similar skills as he did in 7/09. Derek has good hands and feet behind the dish and shows good coordination. He has an athletic, stable body, and he blocks / receives the ball well. Derek has good instincts and play skills, and if he can work to gain ground when receiving, pop times could become even lower. At the plate, Derek has a balanced, smooth approach, with a nice load. His swing is in rhythm and he shows pop in his bat. A shorter stroke, and quicker bat will help already solid offensive grades become even better.
