• Sam is a very talented/strong (5'11"/200) 2-way prospect who shines on the diamond. Behind the dish, he sits in well with athletic actions and good flexion. He presents a low/soft target and tracks pitches into his mitt. Lateral quickness allows him to body/center pitches in the dirt off of his chest. Transfer is quick with accurate throws on a line to 2B - pop times at an impressive 1.92. In the OF, he puts his athleticism on display covering ground with speed to his right and left. He works behind and through the ball gaining ground toward his target. As a hitter, Sam shows an aggressive approach looking to swing it. Quick hands whip the barrel with authority as he squares the ball up consistently. The ball explodes jumps off of his barrel to the deep parts of the park (exit velo = 94 mph). Scharville is a skilled 2023 grad who is one to keep an eye on.
