12/06/2009 - College PREP - McCook, IL Johnathan is a young, 2012 graduate that shows as a two-way player on the mound plus in the OF with an average, thin frame. Currently, he projects best on the mound for the next level. Fastball shows a range of 74-79 mph with life and solid arm side run. Off speed pitches are average, needing further development to be quality pitches at the next level. He will benefit by getting instruction on the mechanics of his delivery. Arm strength is average as he must get on a strict long toss program to aid in further developing more arm strength, raising velocities. In the OF, Chico plays hard and shows a lot of hustle but needs to work on taking proper routes / angles in working to get behind balls to play through with momentum to target. Defensive abilities are near average in the OF. At the plate, Johnathan is a switch hitter that shows better from the left side. Hitting abilities and power are near average from the left side with well below abilities and power from the right side. He shows a level swing path but has some mechanical flaws that are hindering him from reaching his full potential with grades improving with instruction and adjustments from both sides. With 3 years to further develop, Chico has abilities on the mound with a lot of room to improve.
