Personal Statement

I’m a Multi-Sport Athlete; Football, Basketball and Baseball. Baseball is my passion and, I hope to play it at the highest level possible.

I used the COVID time to my advantage, focusing on strength and conditioning. I’ve definitely seen the benefits, and the progress. I love to push myself, and to be pushed by coaches to become the best version of myself possible.

On the field, I’m comfortable at almost all positions. I love the challenge of the mound, but also love fielding and hitting. I have mostly played middle infield up until now. This year I’ve played mostly 1st and 3rd and, I’m loving the challenge and the experience I’m gaining.

6'5, 210 lbs with a pro build and massive frame. Lutman was one of the top overall performers from our preseason events and recorded the highest peak FB at 91.4 mph. He moves down the slope easily with body control and pace before getting into a soft landing with direction towards his target. Uses a high, push back type takeaway that shows the ball immediately to 2nd base and keeps him arm action bent throughout. Comes downhill from a high 3/4 release with a balanced finish. FB spins at an above average rate with life/carry into the zone. Uses a SL with hard, tight break as his main secondary & the offering has swing and miss potential. CH is a usable 3rd option with hard tumble and sink. As a position player, he can handle 3B or 1B duties. The arm strength plays well from the hot corner and he has sound footwork for a taller athlete. At the plate, he can rotate easily to generate impressive bat speed and produce mid to upper 90s exit velocities.

7/20/21 to 7/25/21
07/21/2021 - Baseball Factory Southwest Championships 16U Hunter continues to show as a prospect on the diamond with improvements in his baseball abilities. At SS, he displays smooth / athletic actions. Feet are active as he works around balls and plays through with momentum to his target. Glove action is clean and presents out front. He moves well laterally and utilizes his foot quickness (7.22 60 time) in displaying range. Throws are accurate with carry (92 mph velocity) across the diamond. At the plate, he continues to shine with well above average power potential through a squared setup. Hands are quick and work through an aggressive swing path. He has strength (87 mph exit velocity) in his swing and shows a feel for the barrel with power showing best to the pull side. On the mound, arm strength has improved as he threw his top velocity to date at 86 mph. Fastball shows a range of 83-86 mph with sinking action. Breaking ball displays 11/5 shape with gradual break. He maintains arm speed on his changeup with sink. Off speed stuff show as quality pitches that will get outs. Control is well above average as he throws strikes with all his pitches. Hunter has a big upside on the mound and will get looks from the collegiate coaches with baseball abilities.
