Contact/ Power batter
I played second base for a season in high school when I came back from an injury, until i secured my starting spot at 3rd again, I had 0 errors, that year with fielding.
I keep the dugout loose, am always willing to work with a teammate to work on mechanics, or just for pure satisfaction.
Overseas Goals
I want to continue playing the game I love. I had injuries and a couple family members that passed away that kept me mentally unable to play. With that being said those same family members are part of the reason I’m back to playing. I want to challenge myself and move to newer heights.
I’ve been in the gym for the last year, and am jogging anywhere from 8-14 miles a week, as well as starting a fielding work out that I’ll be doing for the next year. Practice 3-5 days a week for 2-3 hours each session. Not counting weekly batting cage sessions which are my primary batting work outs, and then tee and other cage centers to keep loose and apply whatever else I learn or want to adjust.

Testimonials

Ajaye is a great baseball player. His knowledge on and off the field is excellent. He’s a brick wall at 3rd base and has a strong arm to throw guys out at 1st. His judgement of the strike zone is good, providing numerous walks. He can hit for both contact and power with runners on base.
Overall, he’s definitely a guy that makes a team better.
I have had the pleasure to play with Ajaye for a little while now and I haven’t seen a more dedicated player in my time around baseball. Not only is he a phenomenal player, he is a great person. His knowledge for the game is top tier. He has great ability to hit, field and lead the people around. He works harder every day to improve himself and everyone around him. I believe he would be a great fit on any team and has worked for the opportunity to continue his career overseas.
