08/11/2010 - College PREP - Bear (Wilmington), DE Jacob is a young 2B with an athletic, thin frame that shows projection as he continues to physically mature, filling out. Foot speed is slightly above average as indicated by his 7.40 60 time. Feet are active as he moves well laterally, displaying range but needs to be more aggressive in coming to get, playing through the baseball with his body. Hands are presented out front, showing soft and clean hands in making the plays. He gets rid of the baseball quickly with hands and feet working well together with throws showing accuracy but will benefit by getting on a long toss program to develop more carry and arm strength. Offensively, Pellegrino shows a balanced approach with lower half working well through the swing. He shows a feel for the barrel with baseball jumping off his bat when centered. With 2 year to further develop, Jacob has abilities with time and room to improve.
