DJ Ford is a 2028 OF/RHP with a 5-11 175 lb. frame from Tampa, FL who attends Plant. Features an athletic build with some present physicality and projection. Ran a 6.79 60-yd dash. In the OF, showed aggressive actions where he worked with quickness to and through the baseball fielding it slightly off to the side. Slight regather after reception but maintains momentum which helps him get off downhill throws with adv. strength that were one-hop accurate. In the INF, showed developing actions. Light feet that didn't play with much urgency/quickness. Taller throughout his movements with late drop into fielding position. Fielded most clean and used a full arm action that showed off similar adv. strength as in the OF. At the plate, sits in a wider base and uses a toe tap trigger. Create some quality separation into launch where he turns the barrel on an uphill path with adv. hand/bat speed. Quality barrel skills. Was impacting it loud through the middle and pullside. On the mound, used a more tall/fall delivery. Smaller leg lift with a smaller stride down the mound. Medium arm path out the glove that works loose/continuous to a normal 3/4 slot. Ran the FB up to 81 that displayed some natural running action and produced several in-zone late whiffs. Mixed in a developing slurvy breaker that had decent spin for the current velo. Also flashed a few CHs that had more fading action than depth.
