Player Write Up

A 6 ft 2028 3B/RHP out of Sprague High School in Salem Oregon.  A long, lanky, high motor player who is continuing to grow at 3rd base.  He has the ability to make plays, and his strong arm plays very well at the hot corner.  Works on reading hops well and keeps feet moving through the ball makes his throws accurate and through the target.

As a hitter Sam excels with quick hands showing this fall his ability to hit high pitches with authority.  A tall balanced hitter that gets his high leg kick down in plenty of time to drive the baseball to all fields.  Posted an 80+ exit velo.

On the rubber the right hander works with good tempo.  His whippy ¾ arm slot presents for a difficult read for hitters.  Works down in the zone and uses his off-speed to keep hitters guessing.  A mid 70’s fastball hits a high of 77 MPH and he is still developing.  A player that is going to excel all over the diamond.
