01/15/2010 - Vero Beach Spring Training & Competition - 2010 Hall showed good potential at the plate, has strength and some life in his swing. Also showed ability to make adjustments and take coaching in drills, and was able to transfer it to his game approach. Needs to continue to work on staying closed with his front side, avoid tendency to pull off and get out and around pitches - made progress at camp, but needs to keep working on staying in more athletic positions throughout his swing and finish. Defensively, he improved his low end pop time slightly - down from 2.59 to 2.55. He has room to continue to develop his throwing footwork along with his arm strength. Mainly needs to work to improve his receiving and blocking. Glove arm needs to stay softer to receive, and must work to get down in front of balls in the dirt - work on flexibility and agility will help improve his range.
