Scouting Report

Hitting

Scouts rave about Cody Karlin bat control and how he can essentially do what he wants with any pitch. A good run producer, Karlin has been showing more consistent patience at the plate as his power comes from his strong, quick wrists. Karlin has been showing more consistent patience as he concentrates more on hammering pitches through the infield, especially when moving runners over when needed. Karlin can bloop a base hit by flicking the bat through the strike zone with ease or he’ll drive the ball into center field just as easy and he continues to look comfortable at the plate.

Base-Running & Defense

Cody Karlin has average speed with a loose, fluid stride. With great instincts Karlin is a solid base runner who knows how to pick his spots to run. He shows great judgment in taking the extra bases, and is among top rookies currently in the leagues. Defensively, Cody Karlin is solid. Other outfielders have modestly better range, but Karlin positions himself well in the outfield and reads the ball off the bat better than most, turns virtually every ball he touches into an out. He is extraordinarily focused and disciplined, and all of his throws hit infielders squarely in the chest.
