01/18/2013 - Baseball Factory National Spring Training at Pirate City Ethan is a young LHP/OF that will graduate in 2015. Feet are active as he takes proper routes / angles in tracking down balls as he makes the routine plays. He needs to work on getting behind balls more to play through and continue to improve defensive grade. Throws are accurate but will benefit by building more arm strength through a long toss program. At the plate, Barrow shows a balanced, open setup with rhythm. Hands work through a level swing path and he makes consistent contact, mainly to the pull side. For hitting grades to continue to improve, he needs to work to keep hands inside the ball to utilize all fields. Power numbers continue to improve as he learns to use lower half more. On the mound, fastball shows a range of 68-70 mph with arm side run. Breaking ball displays 2/8 shape with gradual break. Stock on the mound will continue to rise as more arm strength is gained. Mental makeup is a plus as he is very coachable. With 2 years to further develop, Ethan has abilities with time and room to improve.
