Gregory Boland is a 2018 C/1B, 3B, RHP with a 6-1 205 lb. frame from Acworth, GA who attends Allatoona. Large frame with strong, physical present build. Ran 60 yard dash in 7.88 seconds. Switch-hitter, even stance from right side of the plate with smoothness to barrel stroke on line drive plane, shows strength and is capable of driving the ball. More smooth from left side with better bat speed, hands have more natural and smooth path, drove the ball into the air consistently with positive launch angle and strength. Worked out in a pair of spots. Moving forward upright into reception when behind the plate, shows quickness to footwork and gains moderate ground, threw 70 MPH and popped as low as 2.06 seconds. Bends well at 1st base and fields cleanly, accurate across the diamond up to 71 MPH with quick release. Pitched as well, high three quarters arm slot with online delivery and very compact arm stroke. Fastball worked 78-80 MPH with some arm side run, showed curveball with 11/5 shape and very good break, has depth and is able to sharpen it up to get swings and misses. Changeup showed good arm side run and sink; mimics fastball arm speed well. Pounded the zone with three pitches. Good student.
