01/13/2023 - Baseball Factory's Spring Training at Jackie Robinson Training Complex (MS) JJ Dering is a 2029 RHP and LHH 3B out of Odessa, FL. He is a very engaged athlete with good energy and positive body language. At the plate, he does well to stay in the hitting zone with a controlled stride and rhythm, working through the ball with an active lower half. He has good hip/hand coordination and barrels the ball consistently, hitting line drives to all fields. At 3B, he showed off an accurate arm with a raw velo of 61. As he gets bigger he will continue to develop in the field. On the mound, he showed off a knack for throwing strikes and a good feel for pitching. He has on-time separation and a relaxed knee that allows him to keep his stride in-line for a controlled landing. Has good FB arm speed when throwing his CH. Looking forward to seeing his development on the mound as he gets bigger and stronger.
