01/08/2021 - 2021 Baseball Factory Pre-Season Prospects Tournament (HS) Malik is a R/R 2B prospect in the 2024 class. At 2B, he shows the ability to make routine plays as he tries to work through the ball and create momentum into his throws. A long toss program would be beneficial to increasing arm strength. Malik approaches the ball on-time while fielding in a square position. He could benefit by presenting his glove more out in front helping to avoid getting the in-between hop. He shows good lateral actions. At the plate, this RHH stands in the box with a tall/open stance with comfortable hands. He tracks pitches into the zone and hits the ball where it's pitched, using the entire field. More efficient use of his lower half will allow him to unlock more power at the plate. With plenty of time to grow and develop, we look forward to watching Malik progress in the future as he continues to work.
