12/19/2009 - Christmas Camp and Tournament #1 Vando is a thick, strong, OF that will graduate in 2010. In the OF, he takes decent routes to the baseball and releases the ball well out of his hand. If Vando can quicken his feet, and strengthen his arm, we could see improvement in his defensive skills. Offensively, Vando has good balance and bat speed. He shows flashes of having raw power, and with more use of his strong lower 1/2 we could see more power from Vando.
