Jonathan Newman is a 2016 2B with a 5-9 155 lb. frame from Naples, FL who attends Barron Collier HS. Lean, athletic build with a projectable frame and room to fill out with additional strength. Ran a 7.25 60-yard dash. Primary middle infielder, attacks the ball with short steps, shows athletic actions to the ball, good on the charge, gets on top of throws across with strength. Right-handed hitter, starts with a slightly open stance and a slight wrap at start of swing. Line drive swing plane with a nice feel for the barrel, creates consistent line drive contact to all fields. Gets to front side early at times, nice feel to use the whole field and go with pitch, hands work well through swing. Outstanding student.
