Noah Goss, OF, Oxnard College

April 23 — Decent strength and musculature despite being undersized; strong core and lower half with explosiveness and quick twitch, particularly firing to the ball and in his first step out of the box … Good reads and great runner out in center field; covers a lot of ground and tracks the ball well. Below-average arm strength right now though; accurate, will hit cut off man, but struggles to show good velo or carry to targets; not a significant threat to throw out runners from mid/deep center field yet … Timed 4.18 up the line from the LHH box; 4.51 and 4.52 on turns at first base … Real opposite field orientation at the plate; oppo slap hitter on outer half, especially to hit the ball in the air. Never saw him turn on an inside pitch with bat speed, though my look was limited. Good bat speed with decent hand/wrist strength; hunch is he may have some sneaky pop at times, picks his spots. Flashed bunt early in first at-bat, will try to go to it for a base hit; enough foot speed to make it work if/when he gets it down … Overall decently quick and athletically solid outfielder who fits well in center at this point in his career; enjoying good offensive season at Oxnard College to boot. Noah Goss isn’t yet an MLB Draft candidate, but there’s no question he’s on the right track after a pretty decent freshman JuCo season with the Condors.
