Jacob Johnson is a 2023 2B/RHP/3B with a 5-7 185 lb. frame from Woodstock, GA who attends Etowah. Compact frame with some strength in the arms and wrists. Ran a 7.80 60-yard dash. Primary second baseman, showed good footwork laterally and on the charge, made clean plays out in front for the entire round showing some feel for the leather, long and deep arm action with a very high release point, dropped the slot on the charge. Secondary right-handed pitcher, full wind up from the middle of the rubber, belt high lift and three quarters slot. Fastball touched 80-mph and worked it around the zone, mixed in slurvy breaking ball in the mid 60's with developing feel to spin. Right-handed hitter, wide and square base, high hands with a low back elbow set, flat path through the zone with some hand speed, has an ability to separate and lift, swings it with intent and made hard contact when he got extension out front and stayed closed off, good hands. Shows legit hand speed in the box with some whip in the barrel, defensively profiles to the right side of the infield. Good student.
