Dec 2020 Report

Evaluator: Joe Drake

Age: 25 yr
Height: 6-1
Weight: 180 lbs
Hits/Throws: R/R
Acquired: 2013 IFA, PHI
RuleV: On 40-man

Physical Description: Listed at 6'1", 180. Maybe 5 years ago. Stout, soft body now with a protruding gut. Wide hips and thick thighs, but still looks top heavy. Big boy. Frame is mature and then some. Have to hope he stays in playing shape. Nothing live about his body these days.

Hit: Upright stance with a slight knee bend. Lead foot open by about a foot length. Hands sit navel-high with some wiggle. Whole body rocks just a tad waiting for the pitch. Steps in towards pitcher as he loads, slight coil, lets his foot hover just off the ground rather than using a pronounced leg kick. Slightly different each time, seems easy to get off track. Aggressive, takes hacks, sells out for damage. Grooved swing. Has good loft, any more and you might call it an uppercut though. Looks to pull anything middle and in. Will chase up and inside off the plate to do so. Trouble with spin. Plenty of swing and miss. Not going to work many walks. Grade: 30

Power: Lofted swing with intent to drive the ball in the air. Gets his body into the swing to help generate bat speed, but still average at best. Will crush fastballs and mistakes, but hit tool may not be good enough to get to anything more than average pull power in games. Grade: 45

Field: Catcher. Uses the one knee technique, stabs a bit when receiving. Doesn't present ball to umpire well or often, not likely to steal many strikes. Below-average receiver. Multiple passed balls in same outing, pitches should have been blocked. Appears to have outgrown ability to defend. Just not athletic enough to adjust with a knee down. Not MLB-caliber. Grade: 30

Arm: Looks strong, clocked a 1.94 pop time from the minors. Actions are slower now, which will drag pop time down a bit. Especially in his new stance. Grade: 55

Run: Plodding runner. Turns triples into doubles, etc. Bottom of the scale. 4.72 H-1 from when he was closer to 180lbs. Easy 5+ now. Grade: 20

Overall: Round, unathletic catcher with a strong arm and pull power, but that's it. Poor receiver with poor reflexes. Robo-umps will help him, but still not an MLB-caliber defender. Only reason he catches is because he can't play anywhere else. Will get beat on high fastballs and spin, unlikely to DH. Likely an emergency catcher, org depth type. Not someone you want behind the plate even once a week.

Evaluator: Joe Drake

Age: 20 yr
Height: 5-11
Weight: 170 lbs
Hits/Throws: L/L
Acquired: 2017 IFA
RuleV: 2022

Physical Description: Small, but solid frame, wouldn't project much more here.

Delivery & Mechanics: Crossfire action with 3/4 arm slot; moderate leg kick

Fastball: Sits 89-91, T93; Reported to have AA spin rates, chance for fastball to play up with flat approach angle given his size. Finds the zone often. Grade: 50

Curveball: Spins it well. Grade: 50

Changeup: Gets depth. Grade: 50

Control and Command: Good control per reports and backed up by low walk rates so far in pro career. Could change as we get more looks. Control: 50 | Command: 45

Overall: Soft tossing lefty without much projection. Good command and ability to spin the ball will help mask weak fastball velo, but likely needs to add a few ticks to have legit shot as MLB starter. Long relief also an option. Very limited looks.

Dec 2020 Report

Evaluator: Geoff Pontes

Age: 23 yr
Height: 5-10
Weight: 195 lbs
Hits/Throws: R/R
Acquired: 2019 Draft - Round 2
RuleV: 2022

Physical Description: Lanky, tall frame. Built like a wide receiver who has been out of the game for a year. There's muscle, but he's a little soft - stomach sticks out further than chest. Body is mature, no real room for added weight. Could benefit from a little body recomposition. Long arms, proportional legs. Baseball athletic.

Hit: Tall setup, hands by back ear, back elbow even with shoulder. Sits into back leg slightly, front leg extended, a little wider than shoulder-width. Very slight trigger; Front leg twitches, slight coil, hands travel back to bicep. Comes to the plate looking to do damage, selling out for power. Has average bat speed; Steep swing plane, little bit of a windmill, will allow him to lift the ball but leaves plenty of holes in the swing. Some swing and miss; Poor contact quality. Will work a walk, but nothing special about approach or zone control. Grade: 45

Power: Average bat speed and uppercut swing maximize his average raw power. Takes hacks, looking to drive the ball in the air, but doesn't square the ball up often. Average raw is there, he's just not going to get it. Doubles pop. Grade: 30

Field: Average actions and instincts. Range is limited but his hands are soft enough for the infield. Not going to turn any heads, but can stick at middle infield. Grade: 50

Arm: Easy arm strength; strong and fluid. Carries firm and on target from short. Little to no tail. Live and loose. Grade: 60

Run: Below-average runner. Doesn't cover as much ground as his 6'4 frame might lead you to expect. Slow movements, lacks quickness, explosiveness. Grade: 40

Overall: Tall, lanky infielder who lacks MLB bat skills. No carrying tool. Aggressive approach but doesn't really square up the ball and drive it; Gap power. Old school style who won't strike out or walk much, going to put the ball in play and see what happens. Empty batting average. Solid defender with strong arm but not very quick; Good enough to play the left side of the infield. Lack of offense keeps him from being a threat to start on a competitive team. Ceiling of defensive utility type, floor is AAA emergency depth. At 26, his time has come and gone.

Dec 2020 Report

Evaluator: Joe Drake

Age: 22 yr
Height: 6-0
Weight: 150 lbs
Hits/Throws: B/R
Acquired: 2014 IFA, PHI
RuleV: On 40-man

Physical Description: Built like an average middle infielder. Lean up top, thicker legs and butt. Looks athletic. Mostly filled out, not much room to add more weight. Live body that moves well. Good athlete with the quickness and reflexes to play up the middle.

Hit: Switch hitter. Left: Stands upright with hands at the eyes and bat pointed directly back over the shoulder. Moderate bend in the rear knee, front foot extended for a wider base and open half a step. Coils moderately with a waist-high leg kick and steps toward the pitcher to get to launch position. Right: Similar stance, deeper knee bend, hands sit lower, rest bat on shoulder. Straight on setup. Coils a touch less, smaller leg kick, everything less pronounced, less smooth - probably a natural lefty. Hands stay back allowing him to adjust when fooled. Not super selective, swings at pitchers' pitches. Gets beat by velo and good spin. Visibly frustrated when things don't go his way. Seems to alternate between passive and aggressive. Earns walks and gets hard contact when he's patient. Grade: 50

Power: Fairly level swing plane. Below-average bat speed. Will run into a few, but not someone who will drive the ball out of the park. More a gap power, doubles guy. Legs are good enough to stretch a single into 2 here and there. Grade: 30

Field: Actions are smooth and natural, but prone to mistakes (multiple dropped balls on tags); Gets himself into position; good, soft hands Grade: 50

Arm: Able to throw on the run and from odd angles. Ball is firm with solid carry. Enough to play the left side but nothing to salivate over. Combo of functionality and strength should be above-average overall. Grade: 55

Run: Smooth runner. Big, quick strides; gets up to speed quickly. Can and will go 1 to 3 on a single. 4.27 on a H-1B. Grade: 50

Overall: Athletic, glove-first middle infielder who was overmatched in his first MLB season (R5 guy forced up early). Inconsistent approach oscillating between passive and aggressive exacerbated his poor swing decisions. Whiffed often against good pitching, especially spin. Switch hitter who looks more natural as a lefty, but doesn't look like he'll hit for much power from either side due to swing path and lack of pop. Speed and defense are carrying tools, if you had to choose. Ceiling is below-average regular at short, floor is probably once a week MI and defensive replacement. MLB defender with AAA bat.

Dec 2020 Report

Evaluator: Joe Drake

Age: 22 yr
Height: 6-2
Weight: 210 lbs
Hits/Throws: L/L
Acquired: 2020 Draft - Round 4
RuleV: 2023

Physical Description: Looks every bit of his 6'2", 210 pound listing. Sturdy, athletic frame. Thick, strong legs and rounded shoulders. Lean and muscled. Mostly filled out, but could add a few more pounds. Live arm. Looks like an MLB pitcher.

Delivery & Mechanics: Has a three quarters release that whips around after leg kick that comes waist-high and moderate coil. Coil and whip combo add some deception; looks like some crossfire action. Uses long legs to get down the mound for what looks like good extension, need data to confirm. Moderate effort. Multiple iterations over different looks, may have issues repeating.

Fastball: 92-94 with tail. Explodes on hitters. Power, deception, and life make it tough to square up. Grade: 60

Slider: 79-83. More sweep than depth, really comes across the zone due to angle created by wide release. Can bury armside for whiffs, ability to be his out pitch. Appeared inconsistent in limited look. Grade: 50

Changeup: Rumored 81-83, didn't see it in limited looks. Reports suggest below-average, may change with additional looks. Grade: 40

Control and Command: Walk issues in college, struggled to find zone in limited viewing. Seemed to find good spots when he was on, but missed entirely when he wasn't. Control: 40 | Command: 40

Overall: Good sized lefty with plus velo will get a chance to prove he can't start before moving to the pen. Live arm, good body, 3 pitches gives him at least a shot to be a back end guy. There's a chance it works out if org help with control and command -- first look would be his crossfire mechanics. If not, feels like a surefire low-leverage relief floor, especially with 3 pitches in the 3-batter minimum age, with upside as an AA high-leverage guy.

Dec 2020 Report

Evaluator: Joe Drake

Age: 24 yr
Height: 6-0
Weight: 205 lbs
Hits/Throws: R/R
Acquired: 2018 Draft - Round 3
RuleV: 2021

Physical Description: Average frame, solid and athletic. Body is mostly mature. Good movements. Live arm. Average righty.

Mechanics: Moderate effort, high 3/4 to overhand slot. Moves quickly through delivery with pointed movements; Hard leg kick to letters with hands in front of the body at shoulder height. Very similar from the stretch, but more coil. Attacks the hitter as he comes down the mound, but finishes low and balanced.

Fastball: 94-96; Good zip, works high in the zone with it. Straight, but likely some ride here given the arm slot and whiffs at the top of the zone. Around the zone, but lacks command of it and will leave it over the heart or miss in a noncompetitive spot. Grade: 55

Slider: 83-88; Gets both sweep and depth. Manipulates it like 2 different pitches. One is hard and tight like a cutter, the other comes in low 80s but gets much more depth. Falls off the table. Throws the tight version for strikes and buries the bender -- enough difference that you could call it a hard curve. Potential plus pitch. Possible that he tips it, batters don't chase like you would expect Grade: 55

Control and Command: Typical hard thrower who doesn't know where it's going. Misses in bunches and has a tendency to leave it down broadway. Not going to get away with it against MLB hitters. Control: 40 | Command: 30

Overall: Average size righty with big stuff, but has ticked down since draft day. Has little command and in concert with the reduced velo, wonder if something is off in mechanics or he has a nagging injury. Current iteration is a low-leverage reliever. If he gets back into the upper 90s with at least a semblance of command, could be a high-leverage arm.

Dec 2020 Report

Evaluator: Joe Drake

Age: 23 yr
Height: 6-5
Weight: 225 lbs
Hits/Throws: R/R
Acquired: 2019 Draft - Round 3
RuleV: 2022

Physical Description: Tall righty with long limbs and broad shoulders. Thick thighs, average butt; upper half has room for some good weight, but doesn't look underdeveloped. Live arm.

Delivery & Mechanics: Three quarters arm slot, mostly, will lean a little and move to a high three quarter at times - perhaps when he's working glove side. Moderate effort in delivery, a tick more from the stretch. Windup is casual with an easy leg kick to the navel before ripping his arm to the plate. Heavy followthrough as his leg swings around, pulls him 1st base side occasionally. Could see the lurch to the plate causing command issues.

Fastball: 92-95 with visible tail; has touched 98. Gets whiffs and pop-ups up in the zone, so it has some ride despite the lower arm slot. Uses early and often, out pitch for Ks. Grade: 60

Slider: 84-87, has decent movement but lacks any real bite. Slurvy, in between shape. Seems to lack feel and doesn't get a ton of whiffs or chase. Will try and steal strikes with it early. Grade: 50

Changeup: 83-86 with good depth. Sells with armspeed and gets swing and miss when it looks like a strike. Struggles to control it. Grade: 45

Control and Command: Below average. Misses in bunches and then has to come into the heart of the plate. This is a significant issue for him and will likely limit him to the pen unless the team can help him make an adjustment. Control: 40 | Command: 30

Overall: Starter's frame and arsenal with a reliever's control and command. The fastball is plus but the secondaries are fringy. Even if they improve, the command is still a limiting factor. High upside, high floor type pitcher who has a shot at being a backend starter and is almost a lock to be a big league bullpen arm.

Dec 2020 Report

Evaluator: Joe Drake

Height: 5-10
Weight: 140 lbs
Hits/Throws: B/R
Acquired: 2018 IFA
RuleV: 2022

Physical Description: Lean but muscular frame with long limbs. Looks heavier than 140 already. Powerful for "small" stature at 5'10". Plenty of room for weight, shoulders broad enough to carry more muscle. Live body that's well proportioned. Gets the most from his frame.

Hit: Switch hitter. High hands with a little wiggle, mostly upright with slight knee bend on both sides of the plate. Moderate leg kick both ways. Has slight loft in the swing plane despite the high hands, seems to generate easy bat speed. Low effort swing but the ball pops pretty well. Smooth from both sides, almost a mirror image. Grade: 55

Power: Gets easy bat speed despite smaller stature. Should add strength. Power looks like it will play up more than you would expect due to athleticism. Grade: 45

Field: Tough to gauge in limited action, but he has fluid movements and good athleticism. Subject to change with more in-game action stateside. Grade: 50

Arm: Rumored to be a double-plus cannon, but could change as we get more looks when he comes stateside. Grade: 70

Run: Limited looks, but he moves well and is explosive. Likely to change as body matures. Grade: 50

Overall: A 2018 J2 signing with very little professional experience who has yet to play stateside due to the pandemic. An athletic switch hitter with surprising pop for his small frame. Strong arm will give him a chance to play on the left side of the infield. Tremendous upside and unknown in the current profile, could move up or down this list in 2021.

Dec 2020 Report

Evaluator: Joe Drake

Age: 22 yr
Height: 6-3
Weight: 220 lbs
Hits/Throws: R/R
Acquired: 2016 Draft - Round 1, SD
RuleV: Eligible

Physical Description: Big, strong frame that still has a little room for weight. Wide shoulders and long limbs. Legs muscular but not big. Athletic build and moves fine, but definitely a corner profile.

Hit: Upright stance, sits into the knees a bit, hands shoulder level and tight, bat straight up. Legs a little wider than shoulder-width. Very quiet. Loads with minor leg kick to mid-thigh, up and down in the same spot, very little coil. Hands travel up and back. Swing is easy but chops down. Something unnatural about his sequencing, might be pushing, looks like a hitch mid-swing. Swing feels awkward despite the low effort, looks uncomfortable at launch position, back shoulder dips - maybe hands are just late. Average bat speed, looks like room for more if mechanics are optimized. Fringy swing and miss, not awful but more than you'd like; will chase a good breaker. Moderate patience. Grade: 40

Power: Easy pop. Ball jumps off the bat and carries with back spin. Really drives the ball despite average bat speed. Chance for big power here with improvement to the hit tool. Easy plus raw. Grade: 50

Field: Former MI, solid actions and decent hands. Gets himself in position to succeed. Lack of quickness limits range, but he can hold his own. Good instincts and feel. Grade: 45

Arm: Average carry; hits the target off-balance and on the move. Doesn't need to set his feet to be effective. Whips from almost a sidearm slot. Grade: 55

Run: Lumbers a bit. Solid actions, but lacks quickness. Almost like he's moving in slow motion - like his body just doesn't move like it used to. Grade: 40

Overall: Power corner profile with swing and miss issues. Outgrowing his athleticism, but still a chance to stick on the infield with average glove and AA arm because of his feel. There's big time power in the bat, but hit tool issues will limit what he gets to in games. Padres experimented with him at 2B where he could offer a big bat a la Moustakas, but more Ks. Glove, instincts and shifting might make him passable there. More likely a platoon corner bat.

Aug 2021 Report

Evaluator: Joe Drake

Age: 23 yr
Height: 6-5
Weight: 250 lbs
Hits/Throws: L/L
Acquired: 2019 Round 4
RuleV: 2022

Physical Description: XL frame with strong, thick build. Frame is maxed out, no projection remaining; conditioning may be a factor down the road. Broad shoulders, long limbs, strong thighs; power pitcher's build.

Mechanics: Stretch-only; high leg lift starts easy, drop and drive delivery. Longer arm action drops behind the body before coming through at a low-3/4s slot with above-average arm speed. Doesn't repeat that well. Stinson has a shorter stride for his size and as a result gets pretty average extension. Stride foot lands slightly to the first base side giving him a little crossfire action. Low-effort operation, overall.

Fastball: 91-94, T95. Low slot gives fastball solid run with some sink, as well. Looks to steal strikes against lefties by running it back over the plate gloveside, but often misses too far off the plate. Doesn't command it well, in general and gets squared up when left over the heart. Gives up more fly balls than you'd expect from a fastball with his sink. Lacks the zip it had in college and doesn't run quite as much. Grade: 50

Slider: 81-85; sweeper with 2-8 shape. Fringey bite with average movement; fairly consistent but does flash some sharper ones. Tries to steal backdoor strikes with it against righties and uses it for swing and miss gloveside against lefties. Below-average command of the pitch, often misses in non-competitive locations. Tunnels well off the fastball which helps it play up. This pitch is not what it used to be. Grade: 50

Changeup: 77-78; solid tumble with fade. Sells with armspeed, typically, but has a few where he tips it by slowing down. Inconsistent pitch that sometimes lacks depth and resembles a BP fastball. Not much feel; doesn't command well. Used against righties, but it's a liability and often gives up hard contact when left in the zone. Grade: 30

Control and Command: Okay strike thrower; not wild, but doesn't pound the zone. Walks a guy nearly every time he comes into the game. Mostly works east and west, looking to steal strikes on the corners. Doesn't command well to the gloveside, often missing off the plate. Not afraid to open ABs with non-fastballs. Appears to lack confidence in his stuff; often looking to fool hitters and steal strikes rather than challenging them; nibbles early and often and lacks the command to find the edges of the zone consistently. Control: 30 | Command: 20

Overall: Stinson is a big, strong left-hander whose stuff isn't what it used to be. His once live arm hasn't rebounded since his days at Duke and the fastball dips into the high-80s at times now with less run. The slider has fallen off the most and now lacks consistent bite, often rolling in and not fooling anyone. At present, the stuff is underwhelming and the command is poor, leaving the upside here for an up and down reliever for low-leverage innings against lefties. The floor is an org depth relief arm. There's a chance for more if he can find the next gear we saw back in college, but it's been a long time since we've seen it at this point.

Dec 2020 Report

Evaluator: Joe Drake

Age: 25 yr
Height: 6-2
Weight: 190 lbs
Hits/Throws: R/R
Acquired: 2020 PHI
RuleV: Eligible

Physical Description: Average build, unassuming. Wide shoulders, but not built. Not muscle bound but not quite soft. No real distinguishing features outside of slightly long legs. Decent athleticism. Body is mature. What you see is what you get.

Delivery & Mechanics: Throw from three quarters to low three quarters arm slot with relatively low effort. Windup features leg kick to the letters; Simple and easy to repeat, hides the ball decently. Works quickly. Mechanics quicker from stretch with slightly abbreviated leg kick. Not quite the same repeatability.

Fastball: Sits 91-92, T93, with good armside run. More run than rise but can still get a whiff at the top of the zone. Will flatten out occasionally. Hitters struggle to square it up and he can put it by them when he's on. Grade: 45

Slider: Sits 82-84 and has average bite. Able to throw it for strikes and off the plate for whiffs. Can backdoor lefties with it. Tunnels nicely with FB. Confidence to throw it behind in the count and full count. Even 3-0. Grade: 50

Changeup: 79-81 Good depth with armside fade, 10-4. Will throw it to both lefties and righties. Tough on hitters when it's down, feels like it could be his out pitch Grade: 55

Control and Command: Can hit the zone with entire arsenal. Lives on the edges of the zone, rarely leaving anything over the heart. Works both sides of the plate, knack for putting the ball where the hitter can't square it up. Control: 60 | Command: 55

Overall: Finesse over power guy whose average stuff plays up due to command and sequencing. Induces more weak contact than whiffs, but is able to miss bats. Soon as hitters start sitting on the secondaries, he'll blow the fastball by them -- keeps hitters on their toes. More confidence in change could lead to more Ks. Not much upside here, needs the command to be effective -- not enough stuff to get away with mistakes. Stoic on the mound through ups and downs. Good shot as a back end rotation guy between the command, secondaries, composure and pitchability; long relief floor.

Dec 2020 Report

Evaluator: Joe Drake

Age: 21 yr
Height: 6-1
Weight: 191 lbs
Hits/Throws: L/L
Acquired: 2016 IFA, SD
RuleV: Eligible

Physical Description: Average frame with a lean upper body and long legs. High waist, noticeably thick butt, muscular thighs. Room to add weight up top. Natural athlete who makes things look easy.

Hit: Moderately crouched stance with wide base. Hands are high with bat bobbing up and down on shoulder. Torso starts slightly coiled. No stride, slight shift back before resetting front foot for launch position. Few moving parts before swing; simple and still. Very patient, confident feel of zone, makes pitcher come to him. Swing plane feels level. Can lift balls down, but more prone to LD and grounders. Will try and bunt for a hit. Grade: 55

Power: Not a powerful swing. Looking to make solid contact rather than hit homers. Lack of loft makes for more gap power than HR power. Has the legs to stretch extra bases. Enough raw to move up a half grade if the swing is optimized for loft. Grade: 40

Field: Tracks ball off the bat comfortably. Moves easily and takes good routes. Makes it look easy. Above average range. Solid glove, makes good plays but doesn't come up with the great ones. Has that feel of a good, reliable defender. Good instincts. Grade: 60

Arm: Good actions and feel for positioning. Gets himself in position to throw. Ball stays on a line. Passable in right. Grade: 55

Run: Aggressive on basepaths, tries to take the extra base if there's a chance -- can stretch a single into 2. Glides on the bases and in the outfield. Clocked a 4.13 H-1. Weapon on the basepaths. Grade: 55

Overall: Prototypical CF prospect. Plus defender with speed and a good arm and the contact and plate skills to lead off. Not much power to speak of due to approach and swing plane, perhaps an adjustment could add a handful of homers. High probability MLB guy with defensive replacement/pinch runner floor. Feels like Victor Robles Lite.

Dec 2020 Report

Evaluator: Joe Drake

Age: 26 yr
Height: 6-4
Weight: 225 lbs
Hits/Throws: R/R
Acquired: 2016 Draft - Round 4
RuleV: On 40-man

Physical Description: Strong, lean, athletic build; High waist with long limbs and muscled thighs. Quintessential athlete body that could play any sport. Quick, explosive, and fast. Body is mature, room for 5-10 pounds at most.

Hit: Mostly upright stance, feet shoulder-width, hands low at waist; slight rock; Crouches at coil (moderate), hands travel up; Long stride, back side dips at launch position; Average bat control; some definite swing and miss; Battles in the box, patient hitter who works counts and spoils good pitches; Average grasp of strike zone. Works to find something he can drive; Enough bat speed to do damage when he squares it up Grade: 50

Power: Good bat speed generated from quick, strong hands. Swing change added loft and will let him get to more power in games. Legs to stretch plenty of singles into doubles, doubles into triples. Adjustments have heeded improved results, dropped hands this off-season from previous shoulder height load. New setup has generated an improved bat path, tighter launch angles, and an upgrade in loft and quality of contact. Grade: 50

Field: Relatively new to OF/CF (2B in college), below-average read off the bat. Excellent range; can close on almost anything once he finds it. Routes leave something to be desired, but to be expected with inexperience. Former infielder; average actions fielding the ball, occasional misplays, gets into position to throw. Can see a path to average defense if reads and routes improve. Grade: 45

Arm: Solid mechanics with average arm action; accurate, stays through the ball; arm strength is fringe-average when he gets his body into it, below-average when he doesn't; some arc to long throws, can miss cut. Fine for center/left, too weak for right Grade: 45

Run: Blazing, double-plus speed. Clocked a 3.93 Home to 1st.; Quick first step, accelerates quickly and great speed underway; Lots of range for CF. Likes to run and has plenty of base stealing potential; Pitcher's nightmare on the basepaths. Should stay athletic enough to maintain most of his speed as he matures Grade: 70

Overall: Terrific athlete who has dominated younger competition as a pro. No real carrying tool, more of a "sum of the parts" guy with true double-plus speed. He's got a bag full of fringe tools with a chance to be average. If the skills improve, has the talent to be an impact bat at the top of the order and 1st division CF. If they don't, he's a speed-only 4th OF.

Dec 2020 Report

Evaluator: Joe Drake

Age: 26 yr
Height: 6-4
Weight: 225 lbs
Hits/Throws: R/R
Acquired: 2016 Draft - Round 4
RuleV: On 40-man

Physical Description: Big frame with broad shoulders and long, strong legs; Baby-faced but body looks near full maturity; Sneaky athleticism for a big kid; Actions are smoother than you might expect

Hit: Stance is tall with hands high, behind his ear; slight rock moves bat in a tight circle while the front foot taps; Average base with waist-high leg kick and noticeable coil; steps directly at pitcher. Good bat speed with loft in the swing. Pulverizes fastballs but struggles with anything that spins and will chase it off the plate; will K often. Patient hitter who will take a walk; Swings to do damage. Embodiment of a 3 true outcome hitter. Grade: 40

Power: Strong frame helps generate great bat speed. Slight uppercut swing and homerun approach allow him to showcase his prodigious raw power; Whiffs too often to maximize it. Will wait on something he can drive; Drives the ball with authority when he connects. Max exit velocities and average EV in the top 60-70 of MLB players. Grade: 60

Field: Moves well, athletic for his size; Quick enough to have a chance on liners; Flexible enough to have good range on the bag fielding throws at 1st. Knack for getting his glove on the ball. Can play 3rd, but there's probably a better defender in the org that pushes him to 1st. Reactions and athleticism might let him play LF in a pinch. Grade: 50

Arm: Solid arm; Quick actions; Firm and on a line across the diamond. Strong enough for 3rd, fires strikes. Can accurately deliver double play feed from first. Ball maintains carry when he can't set his feet. Grade: 55

Run: Sneaky quickness but you wouldn't call him fast. Won't clog the bases; Can swipe an occasional bag if the pitcher doesn't hold him. Grade: 45

Overall: 3 true outcome slugger corner infielder. Could play third base, but likely ends up at first base. Power is the carrying tool but his solid defense balances the profile. Likely a second-division regular given the contact issues. Could be a stud if he cleaned that up.

Aug 2021 Report

Evaluator: Joe Drake

Age: 21 yr
Height: 6-3
Weight: 180 lbs
Hits/Throws: L/R
Acquired: 2018 CRC
RuleV: 2022

Physical Description: Long, lean, strong build on a big frame. Classic projection frame with long limbs, broader shoulders and high waist. Room for 15-20 pounds of good weight. Wide hips and torso portend that the weight will come.

Hit: Hands at shoulders with arms half extended; Torso mostly upright, slight knee bend with very open base just wider than shoulders. Noisy load with long leg kick to coil hips from open stance as hands shift up and back. Moving parts cover a lot of distance. Steeper swing plane with the bat head staying below the hands even on elevated pitches. Solid to above-average bat speed. Swing and miss is prevalent, especially on spin. Appears to struggle to recognize breaking balls and even offspeed at times. Has decent feel for the zone and doesn't expand excessively. Ultimately, long arms and swing with limited feel to hit limit the upside for contact. Grade: 40

Power: Plus raw power at present and gets to it in games; able to drive the ball out to the opposite field power alley. Solid bat speed and swing path built to lift the ball help unlock the in-game pop which should be a good mix of homeruns and extra base hits. Contact issues hold the game power down a notch. Grade: 50

Field: Solid reads and routes in center and somewhat rangey with long gait. Shows an ability to make the big play with diving catches. Should be able to play an average centerfield at the top level. If he outgrows center, it's likely an above-average LF and solid right due to average arm strength, though the bat is probably too light for a corner. Grade: 50

Arm: Average arm strength. Throws have solid carry and are generally on target. Typically in good position to throw. Grade: 50

Run: Above-average runner underway with long strides now, borderline plus, who'll likely slow down with added weight. Clocked above-average run time (4.16). Aggressive in the run game; wants to take the extra base and will force the issue; comfortable with big leads and gets solid jumps on steal attempts. Has taken a step forward in that regard. Grade: 55

Overall: Big, athletic center fielder with plus power and above-average speed. Hit tool concerns limit his overall upside. The body and hit tool will ultimately drive the profile. There's enough talent and athleticism to be a star if he ever got to an average hit. But if he doesn't hit and he outgrows center, the profile is closer to an up and down guy. Most likely outcome is a role player off the bench who contributes on the bases and in the field.

Aug 2021 Report

Evaluator: Joe Drake

Age: 22 yr
Height: 6-2
Weight: 210 lbs
Hits/Throws: L/L
Acquired: 2020 Round 2
RuleV: 2023

Physical Description: Thicker build with muscle throughout the frame at present. Proportional body with wide shoulders and long arms. Moderate athleticism; won't wow you, but not stiff either. Little room left for projection. Solid arm speed.

Mechanics: Full windup; drop and drive delivery that he moves through quickly with high effort. Feels rushed at times, lots of moving parts that create some deception. The pace has ticked up quite a bit from his college days where he was more deliberate through the rock step and leg lift; the leg lift is more muted now, too. Plant leg starts pre-set; longer arm action that drops down the body and comes through at a 3/4s slot. Intense and aggressive on the mound with significant head-whack at times -- has a late-inning reliever feel. Repeats better after he settles in. Works from the very end of the 3B side of the rubber.

Fastball: 92-96, T97; some run and good carry -- carry feels especially good for the arm slot. Can overpower hitters with it in the zone, jumps out of the hand. Plays up even more after hitters have seen the change - they're almost always late and swing through it or pop it up. Grade: 55

Curveball: 72-74; 1-7 shape with good depth. Flashes good bite, but rolls far more often. Clear 4th offering, used much more sparingly. More of a show-me pitch to steal a strike than a weapon. Grade: 40

Slider: 83-86; Sweeper slider with 2-8 shape. Flashes late bite that really fools hitters. Locates off the plate gloveside often; will try to drop it into the top of the zone but gets punished when the hitter isn't fooled. Grade: 45

Changeup: 85-87; solid tumble with solid but inconsistent fade. Sells well with armspeed; typically locates down armside, but will leave it up once in a while. Tunnels well with the fastball and falls off the table. True swing and miss offering and probably his best pitch. Shown mostly to righties, but the depth and deception make it a legitimate out pitch against all hitters. Grade: 60

Control and Command: Solid strike thrower but has times where he loses the release and can't find the zone. Can nibble too much with 2 strikes - struggles to put lefties away when the slider isn't biting. Knows how to set pitches up but doesn't always hit his spots to be effective. Appears to be limiting the walks a bit better after having trouble early on in 2021. Control: 50 | Command: 45

Overall: Hard-throwing lefty with a solid 4-pitch arsenal. Plus changeup is the headliner with a fastball with good carry that's touched 97 this year. Has a slider and curve that he uses as well, but pitches are a full step behind the fastball and change. Seymour is a solid strike thrower with some decent pitchability that gives him a very real chance to start, however, the delivery has a lot of effort and significant head-whack; the Rays have used him in short 3-4 inning spurts so far during his first pro season. Seymour could realistically be a five-and-dive 4th or 5th starter, but the intensity of the mechanics make me lean toward a multi-inning reliever. He'll need to develop a better weapon to put lefties away to maximize his potential. High floor arm who seems like a lock to be a big leaguer.

Aug 2021 Report

Evaluator: Joe Drake

Age: 22 yr
Height: 6-1
Weight: 200 lbs
Hits/Throws: R/R
Acquired: 2019 CBA
RuleV: 2022

Physical Description: Medium frame with athletic build. Muscle throughout the body, but especially in the thighs. Higher waist, broad shoulders and longer limbs. Moves easily through delivery. Former shortstop and still looks the part; hasn't been pitching full-time very long. Room for a little weight, but not much.

Mechanics: Full windup; slight drop and drive; athletic delivery with high leg kick but remains in control throughout; moderate effort from a 3/4s slot with medium arm action. Delivery is simple but Johnson struggles to repeat at times. Sets up on the first base side of the rubber. A little slower to the plate from the stretch with times above 1.5 consistently; opponents look to run on him.

Fastball: 93-96; T98. Moderate armside run which he likes to use to run the ball back over the plate gloveside for called strikes. Can beat hitters with it up in and above the zone; has some carry to it but can straighten out up there. Rarely locates armside unless it's above the zone, will need to work on this to keep righties from sitting on the fastball away. Grade: 55

Curveball: 74-77; shape ranges from 12-6 to 11-5. Inconsistent quality at present, flashing plus with tight spin and good depth while others hump out of the hand and roll. Typically locates down, but some get away and hang up in the zone. Grade: 50

Slider: 84-88; 10-4 shape; thrown hard with inconsistent bite; cutter-like movement at times. Flashes plus with tight break, good depth and some sweep. Tunnels pretty well with the fastball. Can manipulate the shape to get more depth. Locates heavily to the gloveside, typically landing at or below the waist with a few that get left up. Grade: 55

Changeup: 83-86; shows good fade with some tumble. Flashes above-average or better, but rarely. Often firm. Little feel for the pitch currently and often leaves it up armside. Often slows arm speed; looks like he's trying to place the ball. Featured almost exclusively to lefties; a clear fourth offering that he only seems to use when he has to. Grade: 45

Control and Command: Fringey strike thrower who finds the edges of the zone often when he's on, mixing in bouts of inability to find the zone at all, often missing up armside or low gloveside. Other misses tend to leak over the heart of the plate where he'll be punished by more advanced bats. Struggles to put guys away and will run up pitch counts trying to get guys to chase the fastball with 2 strikes. Has issues locating anything to the armside; he'll need to improve that to be able to work inside to righties and keep them from sitting on stuff outside and over the heart. Control: 40 | Command: 30

Overall: Converted shortstop who only recently began pitching full-time. Johnson has big stuff that lacks consistency with just okay command. There's more projection here than your typical college arm due to his limited pitching history; he's mostly beating hitters with loud stuff right now with little pitchability. The repertoire is deep enough for him to start, but he has major strides to make with the consistency of his pitch quality and command before that becomes a realistic outcome. Looks like a backend five and dive starter or a multi-inning guy from the bullpen.

Aug 2021 Report

Evaluator: Joe Drake

Age: 24 yr
Height: 5-10
Weight: 185 lbs
Hits/Throws: B/R
Acquired: 2017 Round 3
RuleV: On 40-Man Roster

Physical Description: Athletic build with a thicker lower half. Average height, higher waist and longer legs. Lean and muscular, but more so in the legs than the upper half. Shoulder girdle and torso have some room for weight. Built like a middle infielder.

Hit: Left: Square stance with hands at the chin; mostly upright with average base. Loads with moderate leg kick that gets down early. Hands load straight back. Easy, low-effort swing with average bat speed and a fairly flat bat path. Very similar from the right side, leg kick slightly sharper. Patient hitter with good feel for zone, takes easily and works plenty of walks. Makes the pitcher come to him. Some swing and miss in the zone, but not much and will chase on occasion. Squares up the ball often, line drive approach. Grade: 55

Power: Average raw and bat speed. Patient approach helps him capitalize on pitches he can drive, but the line-drive approach isn't conducive to over-the-fence power. Above-average speed and ability to drive the ball into the gaps will help him rack up extra base hits. Will mix in a few homers, but most game power will be of the XBH variety. Grade: 40

Field: Great reactions and good, smooth actions. Able to field smoothly while charging and make accurate throws. Goes to left and right well. Looks like a natural at multiple defensive positions. Makes tough plays look routine. Grade: 60

Arm: Above-average arm strength with good utility. Carries well across the diamond; on a line. Can make accurate throws on the move and while charging. Quick, smooth transfer gets the ball out fast. Grade: 60

Run: Fluid runner with good actions. Quick out of the box and able to post plus home to first times, but more of an above-average runner underway. Athleticism and instincts help the tool play up in games. Grade: 55

Overall: Terrific defender who swings a solid bat from both sides of the plate. Walls has the defensive chops to play well at short, second, or third but the offensive profile best fits up the middle due to the lack of over the fence pop. He's a solid regular with an above-average ceiling if the power ticks up and a utility floor if he struggles to hit at the top level.

May 2021 Report

Evaluator: Joe Drake

Age: 19 yr
Height: 6-6
Weight: 230 lbs
Hits/Throws: L/L
Acquired: 2020 Round 2
RuleV: 2024

Physical Description: XL frame with long, long limbs and a high waist. Lean throughout with some muscle in the lower half, but very projectable. Tommy John Surgery in September 2019.

Mechanics: Windup; tall and fall delivery with moderate effort from a high 3/4s arm slot. Fast arm; medium-length arm action that drops behind the body; Average stride but above-average extension from long levers. Hides ball behind big frame; simple delivery that he repeats well.

Fastball: 88-93; some ride and run. Can work it to all four quadrants; able to spot up on the edges and will run it by hitters at the top of the zone. Plays up more once hitters have seen the curve. Will cut it, flattening it out. Grade: 50

Curveball: 71-79; Typically 1-7 shape. Good depth with a little sweep; good bite, hard break. Tunnels with the fastball and mirrors well. Can drop it in for strikes and buries it well for chases. Hitters swing through it frequently. Pretty consistent pitch, doesn't hang it often. Good whiffs and poor contact as hitters beat it into the ground frequently when they do make contact. Grade: 60

Slider: 82-86; sweeper with some depth. Shape varies, sometimes resembling more of a cutter than a slider at higher velocities. Distinctly different than curve. Appears to use it more against lefties, really runs away from them when it's good. Grade: 50

Changeup: 83-85; solid tumble with a little fade - shape resembles the fastball with more sink and less velo. Good velo separation and sells solidly with arm speed. Buries it below the zone and on the outside to righties. Some feel, but too firm at times, looking like a bad fastball. Grade: 45

Control and Command: On/off; In the zone a lot, solid strike thrower when he's on but erratic when he's off. Pitches will leak into the heart, but the stuff is good enough that he can get away with some. Able to spot fastball and curve on the edges of the zone and locates chase pitches competitively. Erratic at times, losing the release and missing armside by a lot. Coming back from TJS, this will be something to watch closely to see if his feel for command comes back. Control: 45 | Command: 40

Overall: Big, exciting lefty with a good fastball and banger curve that headline a four pitch arsenal. Fulton had Tommy John Surgery in September of 2019 but the stuff and projection is so good that he was still selected 40th overall in 2020. There's frontline upside here with the combination of his frame and stuff, but TJS makes his profile quite volatile since we haven't seen him throw since summer 2019.

May 2021 Report

Evaluator: Joe Drake

Age: 22 yr
Height: 6-2
Weight: 220 lbs
Hits/Throws: L/R
Acquired: 2020 Round 3
RuleV: 2023

Physical Description: Average starter's frame with broad shoulders, high waist and long levers. Has filled out since being drafted; little projection remaining. Aggressive mentality on the mound; runs hot.

Delivery & Mechanics: Semi-windup; tall and fall delivery with high effort from 3/4s arm slot. Fast arm; average stride and extension. Medium-length arm action, drops behind body and hides the ball well. Simple delivery that he repeats well despite effort.

Fastball: 91-93, t95; good ride with a little run. Plays well at the top of the zone; able to finish at-bats with it. Great pairing with curveball, helps it play up. Can have trouble locating; leaves it up armside or yanks it; others sit middle-middle. Dominates righties but gives up hard contact to lefties when left in the zone. Induces more groundballs than you'd expect. Grade: 50

Curveball: 80-83; Power curve with major movement. true two-plane break with great depth and sweep; an absolute hammer. 11-5 shape with hard, late bite. Rarely ever squared up, lots of whiffs. Can struggle to locate in part due to the amount of movement the pitch gets, but even the poorly located pitches elicit whiffs on occasion. Plays very well off fastball, tunnels well. Legitimate weapon that will be even more effective if he can improve consistency and command. Command keeps grade from getting to a 7. Grade: 60

Changeup: 82-87; quite firm with little tumble or fade. No feel; hardly used. Project pitch that has already been emphasized as a focal point of his training. Grade: 40

Control and Command: Inconsistent and sometimes erratic, likely due to high-effort delivery; very on/off. Fringey strike thrower and sometimes just loses the release entirely and struggles to get it back. Ticked up on the cape and during short senior year showing that there's potential for average command down the road. Likely to struggle against lefties without third pitch or command improvement. Control: 40 | Command: 30

Overall: Right-handed data darling due to high spin-rates with a shot to start and a seemingly high floor as an MLB reliever. The fastball/curveball combo is excellent and good enough to fast track him to the majors as a reliever, should Miami decide to go that route, and gives him a shot at high-leverage work. The change and command will need significant work for him to stick as a starter, but Miami has shown an affinity for changeup development in the past.
