07/13/2012 - 2012 Team One South Showcase Manny is a strong and tall first baseman with an accurate arm. In the infield, he has good footwork around the bag and clean hands that help him pick it well on balls in the dirt. His defensive abilities should continue to develop as he learns to get a more natural feel for working low and through the baseball. At the plate, he has a comfortable setup and quick hands that force the ball to jump off the bat with good authority. His offensive tools should continue to improve when he gets a feel for engaging his lower half throughout his swing. As a 2013 graduate, Manny has the opportunity to continue to develop his skills in preparation for the next level.
