I like his background on tracking fly balls in baseball, and I also like how he explains the defense they ran at Wake Forest in relation to his responsibilities.  I really like what I am seeing in this kid and I am very excited to see if he can push for the starting FS position.

If he played outfield and football, the instincts are a little different. However, the baseball thing is going to be huge for him. As was mentioned in the article, watching the ball come off the bat. In some cases (only in centerfield) you could see the delivering pitch and get an instinct fire, direction, expectation etc. where the ball might be headed. Although I know not everyone will know what I'm talking about, if you played center field, your locked on to what I'm saying. Identifying a curve vs slider or breaking ball is huge in the jump.

This kid has a good head on his shoulders. Don't like the rims and tires on the charger though. However, if that's his worst decision in life? He's a pretty good kid.


I bet Mom get's a new house and never has to worry about the part time job again just to buy Christmas.  ThumbsUp
