Scouting Report

Hitting

Juan Cisneros has a hard stroke – geared towards contact. Starts from a tall, balanced stance; low hands near his armpit, backward drift with hands to start load; above bat speed and barrel awareness. Cisneros hands work to stay inside of the softball; straight pull ball type of a hitter who offends pop up. He has some lift in his swing path but presently not adept at creating post-contact extension. Show patients in the batter’s box, but at times he can look like if he’s fighting extension early and explosiveness and so his swing suffers.

Base-Running & Defense

Juan Cisneros has average speed at present but will pick up a grade as he continues to run. His long strides, opportunistic baserunner, will take an extra base on a fielding error. Defensively Cisneros has a steady glove, not flashy but will make the play as a catcher. Gets in front of home plate using his athleticism for those close plays. As a First-base profile, inconsistent on the wide throws, lack of quickness the primary issue, solid fundamentals otherwise can play to fringe-average defensive utility.
