07/06/2024 - BF Evaluation Experience at Pigeon Forge Eli is a solid, strong 1B who is a prospect on the diamond. At 1B, he shows smooth / fluid actions. He displays proper footwork around the bag and is a quality receiver. Hands are clean and presents out front. He takes quick first step and moves well laterally with range improving as he increases foot quickness. Throws are accurate with carry but will benefit by building more arm strength through a long toss program. At the plate, he continues to shine through an athletic setup. Hands are quick and work through an aggressive swing path. He shows a feel for the barrel and has strength in his swing with gap-to-gap pop. Lower half works well through the swing with an aggressive hip turn. With 7 years to further develop, Eli has a big upside with time and room to progress his game. He will be a guy to sure keep an eye on in the future.
