07/27/2010 - College PREP - Council Bluffs (Omaha), IA Jacob is a small, thin, 2nd baseman that will graduate in 2011. Defensively, Jacob is aggressive to the ball and has quick feet. He moves well laterally, he makes plays, and he throws accurately to his target. Jacob can improve defensively if he can get his glove down sooner, play more on the balls of his feet, and get more momentum toward his target. At the plate, Jacob throws his hands to the ball and shows good barrel accuracy. He can hit to all fields and he makes good use of his lower 1/2. Hitting can get better if Jacob can loosen his grip on the bat, improve his balance, and level off his swing.
