06/24/2017 - Omaha National World Series - Session 2 (Ages 14-18) Gabriel is a solid 1B/RHP who has a promising future on the diamond. At the plate is where he shows best through an athletic setup. Hands are quick (81 mph exit velocity) and work through a level swing path. He has strength in his swing with baseball jumping off the bat when centered through a line drive approach. Power will increase as he utilizes his lower half more efficiently. At 1B, he makes the routine plays, displaying clean hands and shows proper footwork around the bag. Defensive grade will continue to improve as he attacks balls more, plays through while presenting hands more out front, and improves foot quickness. On the mound, fastball showed a range of 70-75 mph with sinking action. Breaking ball displays 12/6 shape with gradual break. He maintains arm speed on his changeup with arm side run. Control is solid as he throws strikes with all his pitches. Stock on the mound will continue to improve as he builds more arm strength. Mental makeup is a plus as he is great team player and carries himself in a positive manner with high energy. With 3 years to further develop, Gabriel has potential with time and room to progress his game.
