https://www.perfectgame.org/Players/Playerprofile.aspx?ID=598260 –

 

Isaiah Greene is a 2020 OF with a 6-1 178 lb. frame from Eastvale, CA who attends Corona. Nice athletic build with plenty of room to get stronger. 6.48 runner, can really accelerate on the bases and cause havoc with his speed. Developing footwork and skills in the outfield, obviously has the speed to play centerfield. Left handed hitter, starts open and closes up well moving to contact, short hand driven swing, simple high contact swing approach, line drive swing plane with occasional downhill angle to put the ball on the ground, raw bat speed will continue to improve as he fills out and gets stronger.

            Isaiah Greene didn’t put up the offensive numbers he hoped he would during his junior season last year.

 

The left-handed hitting prep outfielder thrived as a sophomore in 2018 for Corona High in California, but then last season, he saw a dip in his batting average and on-base percentage. He wavered from his approach and pressed at the plate with professional scouts in attendance, which led to some early season struggles, he said.

 

“I struggled with trying to do too much with my approach instead of staying simple and trying to be a gap-to-gap hitter,” Greene said. “I tried to do too much and didn’t stay within myself.”

 

Last summer, Greene bounced back and showed improvement at the plate. He thrived at the Area Code Games and then performed well on the scout team that played against the USA Baseball’s 18-and-under team prior to its departure for international competition in the fall. 

 

He impressed scouts in both those opportunities to position himself as a potential top-three-round pick for June’s MLB draft entering this spring.

 

Observation –

 

            So who plays center…  Pete or Isaiah?

 

Another talent draft by the Mets and you just can’t have enough new outfielders in the system.
