Fielding

Plays on balls of feet. Displays efficient footwork. Little heavy footed chasing balls far away from body. Shows good side to side movements and footwork and third base. Enough ability to get job done at third.  Plays with hands low to the ground. Craddles ball softly. Uses both hands. Needs to quicken transfer.   Would like to see him work on his agility and quickness in his lateral movements in order to improve his range.   Gives soft feeds to the shortstop when feeding the pivot in the double play. Comes off the front of the bag in the pivot with a quick release. Quick arm action at third when throwing to second for the double play. Good crisp throw.  Methodical actions. Gets the job done. A very hard worker. Displays good body control.  Very short backside arm action. Snapping wrist type frontside action. Good release, needs to work on arm strength.  James fits better at third base than second base. He needs to continue to work on his footspeed and agility. Quick release but needs to add arm strength. A hard worker who gets into position well. 

Right Handed Hitting

Hitting

Power

4

Open stance. Tense back leg. Weight is in middle of stance. Gripping bat tightly.  Rocks weight back and then foward as he strides. Stride is soft and he closes off a little to more of an even stance. Hands stay in a nice hitting position.  Collapses backside as he starts his swing. Hands lead and take hands out in front of the plate. Barrell gets through the zone and makes contact out in front of the plate.   Full extension of arms as he makes contact. Will hit the fastball well. Needs to stay back more for the offspead pitches. Very level swing. Good bat speed. Hits through the ball.  Smooth lower body actions. Turns on contact.  James is a good contact hitter. Same bat path on each swing. Line drive hitter.  Shows occasional power.   

Projection

James projects as a third baseman. At the plate he will put the ball in play. Hard worker.
