01/15/2010 - Under Armour Pre-Season All-America - 2010 Stephen is a short, strong, 2-way player both behind the plate and on the mound. He currently projects better behind the plate, where his pop times are as low as 1.95. Stephen has good footwork and hands, and a quick release. He has a quick exchange, throws downhill, and his throws have life and carry on them. Stephen centers the ball well on his body, and he moves well laterally. Defensive abilities can improve if Stephen can gain more ground when throwing out runners. On the hill, Stephen throws strikes and hits his spots. He has an athletic arm action, a solid finish, and command of his off-speed. Offensively, Stephen has good balance and bat speed. He gets good extension, has a line drive approach, and has life in his barrel. Better weight transfer will help already solid hitting numbers get even better.
