07/26/2013 - Baseball Factory National World Series at Pirate City Jonathon is a young player who is eager to learn and improve. Behind the plate, he has a good presence and shows that he can block and receive the ball well with sure hands. He has a quick/short arm action and throws over the top. By working on his footwork while throwing and getting a better drive towards his target, he will get more carry and life on his throws. He can also work on lateral quickness with his footwork which will help him block balls more effectively side to side. At first, he again displayed sure hands, but can still improve his footwork while fielding the ball and around the bag. At the plate, Jonathan has a good setup, a good load/stride, and stays balanced throughout his swing. He has very good bat speed and makes hard contact. Letting the ball travel will allow him to not only drive the ball to all fields, but improve his rate of making hard contact. Overall, Jonathon is a coachable player who shows good fundamentals, and his positive attitude will allow him to continue to grow and improve.
