10/05/2014 - College PREP - Trenton, NJ John showed improvement in his most recent Baseball Factory outing by flashing a 4.69 to 1B and topping out at 71 mph. He continued to show his ability to track down balls while keeping his body under control. Getting behind the ball and playing through it with a strong arm will improve his abilities as an outfielder. At 2B, he works from right to left in an athletic position fielding the ball out front. With his controlled approach he is able to give accurate throws and DP feeds. Working on his glove hand and adjusting his arm action to resemble a middle infielder will take his 2B abilities to the next level. At the plate, his lower 1/2 was engaged and used to drive the ball to the pull side. He maintains a fluid, level swing path generating lots of line drives. Making sure his hands are launched directly towards the ball and using all fields will make him a bigger threat in the lineup. This young player has shown a lot of improvement and should have a great varsity season.
