Thomas McDonnell

Evaluation

Defense: 2.4-2.5 pop time. 65 MPH. Need to work on arm strength and exchange on throw downs. A little stiff behind the plate, working on hip mobility would be beneficial. Hitting: low set up with no stride. Late load. Needs to see more velocity to get on time. Would also like to see more rhythm. Seemed stiff at times. Overall, swing and bat speed are good. Just needs to face higher velocity to shorten up swing and be on time with a better bat path to the ball as move up competition.
