Nice easy stroke. Stays right on the ball. We'll see how long it takes them to have him swinging out of his ass-hole. Wonder if he stole any bags.

Josh is 12 for 22--.545 for the Stockton Ports after 5 games. No extra base hits. No stolen bases. They have to let him run.

He hits to all fields.

He seems to be really dialed in. 2 of the 3 over 2nd were liners.

All 22 of his hits have been singles. That's not a knock, just a bit unusual.

Noted that earlier regarding no extra base hits. A bit surprising in that he has hit many a double. But also clearly nor a power hitter.
As I posted earlier, I'd be shocked if they don't try to make him swing from his ass for more power. They should let him run on his own. He's got quickness, good speed & instincts & runs the bases well. Had a little chat with him about stealing third & he stole it many times this past season.
PS-- you can't beat a liner.
