Max Peoples is a 2018 C/1B, RHP with a 6-1 185 lb. frame from Phoenix, AZ who attends Arcadia HS. Large, athletic frame, young build with some present strength and room to add more. Ran a 7.79 60-yard dash. Primary catcher, shows a short arm action on throws from behind plate, gets on top and showed accuracy, quick transfer, tall at release, arm strength will continue to develop with continued incorporation of lower half. Fields the ball out front, short arm action with longer strides coming off the mound, accurate throws across. Also pitched, starts with a leg lift above belt with short hip turn at top, works to a tight three-quarter arm slot. Works exclusively from the stretch, fastball topped at 77 mph, mostly true with some downhill plane. Needs to develop consistent feel for slider, shows short depth at 68 mph. Right-handed hitter, starts with a wide base and an upright stance, medium hand set. Upper body swing, line drive swing plane with good extension out front. Long finish through the ball, gets the barrel to it, shows ability to create loft to the opposite field with consistent contact to the middle and pull parts of field. Very good student.
