Height: 6’2″Weight: 205 lbs.Bats: RightThrows: Right
Summary:

The size and athleticism of the stand out C/OF they call “Bam Bam” is prominent. Class of 2028 Jordan Lindsay has an exciting combination of power potential and raw athletic ability. He’s a 6’2”  205 lb. Sophomore with the tools to play Center Field or Catcher in the future. Jordan’s physical profile and big bat potential make him a unique prospect in his class. 

He sets up at the plate with a wide-base, balanced and loaded in his back leg. Rotates quickly with an uphill bat path that is short to contact then extends through the zone. Makes contact deep in the zone and keeps the barrel on plane long enough to do so. Able to hit the ball the other way when challenged. Looking to drive mistakes in the gap and over the wall. Loads of untapped power in his swing as he develops and learns to utilize his size in the box. 

Heads up player who makes the hustle plays look easy. Great battery for an athlete of his size at a demanding position. Shows plus ability to throw to the bases at catcher. Athleticism and speed definitely play in the outfield. Likely fits a offense-first catcher or power-hitting corner outfielder profile at the next level.
