Today at the Complex :
Observed a full fielding practice session this morning which included the new 2024 draft signings and holdovers from the FCL. The practice included outfielders throwing to the bases (Carter Mathison & Manolfi Jimenez in LF, Dante Nori, Griffin Burkholder & John Spikerman in CF and Joel Dragoo and Jerffson Peña in RF). Dragoo, Peña and Burkholder impressed with their throwing arms.
Catchers (Luke Davis, Kodey Shojinaga, Rickardo Perez & Brahian Silva) went thru throwing drills to second and third base. Pitchers did PFP’s - covering first base on balls to the right side and chasing a runner between second and third on come-backers (fielding coordinator Adam Everett did an admirable job as the base-runner). I missed the full infield practice but during outfield drills Nolan Beltran was at third base, Juan Villavicencio and Carson DeMartini were at shortstop, Yemil Rosario and Brady Day were at second base and Raider Tello was at first, Day took reps at first base also. Villavicencio, as he showed in FCL play this summer, has a gun for an arm in the middle infield. Day and Rosario also impressed with relay throws.
RHP Titan Hayes, RHP Sam Highfill, LHP A.J. Wilson, RHP Luke Gabrysh, RHP Elicier Bata, RHP Kyler Carmack and RHP Ryan Degges threw side sessions - some in the pitching lab. Yesterday RHP Marcus Morgan, RHP Eli Trop, LHP Camron Hill and LHP Erik Ritchie threw side sessions on the seven mounds. RHP Blaine Knight threw a live BP session.
