05/28/2017 - Interactive Video Program - Keizer (Salem), OR Kaden is an athletic, 2-way player at 3B/RHP. Defensively at 3B, he takes a prep step and is quick on his feet working into an athletic fielding position. He takes aggressive angles to the GB and gives accurate DP feeds. On the mound, this righty gathers over the rubber and delivers from a 3/4 arm slot with free arm action. He commands a 3-pitch mix for strikes as he works in line and finishes strongly towards home plate. With the bat, Kaden shows a balanced setup and gets back into a good load. He drives pitches the opposite way and gets extension through contact. Overall abilities in his game will improve with work on the following.
