07/09/2011 - Cape Cod Pro Select Training - July 9-13, 2011 Lancaster showed improvements across the board since we last saw him a year ago. He lowered his 60 time from 8.16 to 7.5, and showed good pre-pitch actions and decent hands defensively as a 2B. He makes the routine plays, gathers himself well, and he throws with accuracy to his target. In the infield, he needs to work on developing a quicker first step and fielding more out front while playing lower to the ground. Behind the plate, Kristopher has a good set-up, quick feet, and he looks the ball into his glove. He is willing to block the baseball, he keeps it in front, and his exchange is clean. Kristopher throws to 2nd base with pop times as low as 2.35. Strengthening his hands/wrists and blocking quicker will help his defensive grades as a catcher improve. At the plate, Kristopher has an athletic set-up, a solid bat path, and a clean swing. He works the middle of the field, puts it in play, and he can spray to all fields. He needs to work on shortening his load and drills to help with his bat speed so he can accelerate his bat through the zone quicker.
