12/27/2010 - Christmas Camp and Tournament 2010 - Session 2 Snyder showed improvements with his hitting and defense while in Pirate City. He has soft hands, active feet, and good fundamentals defensively. He has a compact / durable frame, he fields the ball cleanly, and his arm works well at his position. Improving his footwork around the bag will help Snyder's defense continue to improve. On the mound, Ryan has good balance, a controlled delivery, and an easy arm action. He has good direction toward home plate and he locates his FB in the zone. He currently projects better as a 2B for the next level. Offensively, Ryan has a solid / athletic set-up, easy stroke, and a line drive approach. He puts the bat on the ball and can hit to all fields. He has an excellent make up and is a hard worker. He absorbs information and is a player who will then implement that in game situations. Because of his positive attitude and the improvements he has already shown us, we expect him to continue to improve over the next couple of years.
