Cardinal vs. Black
2/25/2017
Justin Guidos (2018 RHP, Quakertown, PA) reached as high as 86 mph with his fastball and showed good command working inside to righthanded hitters. The curveball showed 12/6 shape with some tight sin. Delivery was deceptive as he hid the ball and he pounded the lower half of the strike zone.
Ron Cole (2019 RHP, Neptune City, NJ) showed a long and loose arm action from a three-quarter arm slot. He challenged hitters over the inner half of the plate with a clean and projectable arm. The fastball was up to 87 with some arm side life and feel for the pitch.
Aaron Holiday (2018 C, Bear, DE) showed off some impressive tools at the plate. He laced a single up the middle that had good backspin to it and showed off some bat speed with fluidity to his swing. Holiday swings with intent to drive the baseball and has some raw power.
David Williams (2018 1B, East Stroudsburg, PA) has a strong, tall body and that plays well into his approach at the plate. He stands slightly open with a quick leg lift trigger mechanism and gets good extension into the point of contact. Williams shifts his weight well into contact and has some feel for controlling the barrel of the bat.
Matthew Warrington (2019 RHP, Millsboro, DE) was up to 85 mph and showed a full arm action through the back of the delivery. Threw a two-pitch mix which included the fastball with late, sinking life and a curveball with 12/6 shape. The delivery came from over the top and created a tough plane for hitters to square up against.
Jacob Ciccone (2019 LHP, Monmouth Junction, NJ) created good angle on his fastball and was up to 83 mph with the pitch. Showed an advanced feel for pitching as he filled up the strike zone with three pitches in his repertoire. The changeup showed good fade and downward tilt.
Kevin Roll (2017 OF, Linden, NJ) stands at the plate with a closed stance and has a small toe tap that acts as a timing mechanism. He showed quickness in the hands with some weight transfer through the point of contact. Roll also pitched and was up to 84 mph with his fastball and repeated his delivery well.
Quinn Buffington (2018 OF, Camp Hill, PA) proved his two-way potential with sound performances from the mound and at the plate. He stands open at the plate with a high hand set and high back elbow. Buffington showed some bat speed and crushed a hit late in the game. The fastball was up to 82 mph with some cut to it and the arm was clean.
