08/10/2011 - Pirate City World Series 2011 - Session 2 Jesse continues to show improvement in his game. On the mound he showed similar arm strength with good command of all pitches. His off-speed pitches were thrown with good arm speed and had good movement to them. He needs to work on a slide step to help keep runners from taking the extra base. In the outfield he showed good arm strength with good carry and a clean exchange. He needs to continue to work on his aggressiveness to the ball and field with a lower base. At the plate he shows a solid setup with a level path and the ability to use the entire field. He gets long at times and is late in getting his front foot down early for pitch recognition. Jesse is still very young and has a good chance to play at the next level with continued hard work on the mound. Arm strength should help his pitching ability greatly.
