01/15/2010 - Under Armour Pre-Season All-America - 2010 Jacob is a young, athletic, 2-way player both on the mound and in the OF. He currently projects better on the hill, where he has VERY good stuff. Jacob's FB now touches 91 MPH, and his off-speed pitches compliment it well. He moves the ball around the plate, isn't afraid to pitch inside, and he gets good extension on his pitches. Jacob has a loose arm, can throw any pitch in any count, and will get even better as he continues to grow and fill out. Abilities on the mound can continue to get better if Jacob can get more on top of the baseball and work to throw downhill every time. In the OF, Jacob attacks the baseball aggressively and works through it well. He takes good angles to the ball and his throws are accurate with carry to the target. Offensively, Jacob has okay balance and a good base. He puts the ball in play and has power into the gaps. Hitting can further improve with more back side rotation and more use of his lower 1/2.
