McGwire Holbrook is a 2020 C/RHP/3B with a 5-10 180 lb. frame from Orlando, FL who attends Bishop Moore HS. Medium, athletic frame with broad shoulders and present strength proportioned throughout frame, room to continue to grow stronger. Primary catcher, solid tools behind the plate, receives the ball out front, quick transfer out of the glove, shows quickness to arm action and gets on top of throws, nice carry to second base, gains ground with lower half and repeats actions well. Also pitched, big rock step moving into delivery, leg lift just above belt, works with sound rhythm and gets to an extended three-quarters arm slot. Hides the ball well and creates deception, fills zone, topped out at 77 mph with occasional plane, ground ball contact when down. Curveball shows 11-5 shape, slows arm action upon release. Righthanded hitter, begins with a spread, even stance and a high back elbow in the box. Simple leg lift trigger for timing, shifts weight well moving in, keeps hands inside through path, loose coming through the zone, creates leverage at times. Employs a middle of the field approach, has feel for the barrel to work all fields. Very good student.
