Reggie Sharpe

Reggie is an athletic, switch hitting middle infielder with all the defensive tools to stay in the middle of the field. Slightly undersized frame but still has some room to add quality strength in the body even if he is never going to be a real big guy. Twitchy athleticism and really moves easily & comfortably on the field. Defensively shows a live, active lower half. Light on his feet with quick feet and ability to move quickly in all directions. Solid actions at SS. Works thru the ball nicely with soft, sure hands, and a good funneling action. Quick hands. Gets rid of the ball quickly with a short, compact arm stroke and quick release. Should be a future average arm on the left side that will play slightly up due to ability to get the ball in the air quickly & accurately. Defensively will stay in the middle of the field. Offensively Reggie is a switch hitter with a similar approach from both sides of the plate. Works with a slightly open to square stance with a small leg kick to get loaded. Never going to be a big power hitter but generates above average bat speed thru zone due to impressive torque in his midsection. Swing is a little more direct from right side and a little more whippy from the left side tho he uses his hands nicely from both sides. Shows feel to manipulate barrel in the zone with solid bat to ball skills, just needs to continue to add strength to allow him to move the baseball with more authority. Should be able to handle the bat with good quality as he matures and will be able to use the entire field and put some pressure on defenses with his speed. Ran a 7.1 60 that should continue to improve as he matures, light on his feet and gets to full speed quickly. See Reggie as a quality D1 type recruiting target.
