12/27/2024 - Baseball Factory East Coast Winter Classic (MS) Leonardo continues to show as a prospect on the diamond. He did show on the mound for the first time at the event. Behind the dish, he presents a soft/sure mitt showing pocket awareness sticking pitches. He uses his body through the blocking process, centering balls out front. Pop times showed in the 2.44 range with accuracy / carry on his throws. Times will continue to drop as he builds more arm strength through a long toss. At the plate, he continues to shine through an athletic setup. Hands are quick and work through an aggressive swing path. He has strength in his swing and shows a feel for the barrel with gap-to-gap pop. On the mound, fastball showed a range of 63-68 mph with arm side run. Breaking ball displays 11/5 shape with sharp break. Getting on a long toss program to develop more arm strength and develop off speed pitches will aid in improving stock on the mound.
