• Outhouse stands in at 6-foot-0, 160-pounds with a lean athletic frame. Offensively- Righty sets up square to the pitcher with his feet just outside shoulder width. Shows a slight knee bend with an upright torso holding the bat out in front of the back shoulder using little pre-pitch bat movement. On pitch, his trigger is a quick knee raise into the body before striding forward while his hands move back slightly. Utilizes good lower body rotation clearing the hips and getting the whole-body frame involved in the swing. Has quick hands to the hitting zone with an upward lift barrel action throughout into a high two-handed finish. Demonstrated good plate coverage with good gap to gap power to all fields making solid contact during batting practice rounds. Recorded an exit velocity of 89 MPH, up 1 MPH from his previous best recorded mark of 88 MPH measured in June 2017. Showed a fluid and powerful swing with potential. Defensively- Good approach and footwork to get under the baseball. Smooth crow hop mechanics gaining ground on the throw with an appropriate outfielder arm swing. Was accurate with his throws and moved well left/right. Overall a talented 2019 prospect to keep an eye on.

• Outhouse stands in at 5-foot-10; 150 pounds with a lean athletic frame. Recorded a 7.61 60. Offensively- Sets up square to the pitcher with his feet outside shoulder width. Slight knee bend with weight 50/50 and his hands held high above back shoulder near ear level. On pitch his trigger is a knee raise to step forward with his hands moving down and back into a good hitting position. Quick hands getting to the hitting zone with a level bat path throughout zone to a high two handed finish. Good lower body rotation. Trigger is very efficient getting all of his 150 pound frame into swing. Recorded an exit velocity of 72 mph. Defensively- Good approach and footwork getting in front and underneath balls in the outfield. Crow Hop mechanics are fine with good transfer to throwing position. Tends to throw from outfield in a ¾ arm slot. Will improve with a more over the top position throwing downhill towards target. Recorded a positional velocity of 71 mph.

• Winter Open (PBR)
• 2/26/17 to 2/26/17
• Outhouse ran an improved 7.41 60 and 4.13 home-to-1B. Offensively- Wide setup with weight evenly distributed; bat up off shoulder with a slight take back. Up-down stride that gets down in time with an aggressive lower half approach; compact swing path. Line drive results with a huge bump in his exit velocity up to 88 MPH (a 16 MPH improvement). Projectable frame and repeatable swing that can handle physical gains over the long term. Defensively- Controlled approach; fields ball outside front leg with top hand closing over quickly. Moderate crowhop driving back leg through with throws carrying at 79 MPH (an 8 MPH increase from August). Corner OF projection and on the right track with some dramatic improvements over the last 6 months.

• NYS Games (PBR)
• 6/25/17 to 6/27/17
• Slender 6-foot, 155-pound frame with a 7.15/60. Offensively - keeps bat on level plane through the zone with a slight upper cut, repeatable motion, full extension from follow through, strong hands and an exit velocity of 84 MPH down slightly (88 MPH) from the Academic Games but still a prospect to watch, has barely engaged lower half when that happens expect power to increase. Defensively - Increased arm strength to 81 MPH and is still scratching the surface, smooth and effortless from the outfield with accuracy. Pitching - Fastball at 73-74 MPH has late life that fools batters, induces weak or no contact, changes eye level, moves in and out; incorporating a second pitch will add to fastball’s deception.

• Slightly built but athletic 6-foot-0, 155-pound outfielder who ran a 4.30 home-to-1B. Offensively - Strong, quick hands, slight upper cut with inner knee rotation results in exit velocity of 88 MPH, that number should increase as he fills into his frame, repeatable motion, comfortable turning on inside pitch, works middle third with gap power. Explodes through the zone Defensively- Sound footwork, sets up well, above average accuracy, repeatable motion, confident body language. 80 MPH arm strength with more in the tank.
