The Uncommitted Spotlight Series continues as we wind down the '23 calendar and look towards the start of the '24 CIF High School baseball season by taking a look at some of the top uncommitted class of '24 athletes. This group of players is pulled directly from our '24 Rankings. They remain as the top players left on the board going into the start of their senior seasons.
We invite you to get to know them through their data-backed numbers collected at our events with our partnered companies. TrackMan, Blast Motion, Swift Performance, and Visual Edge provide comparable data to project and evaluate players. All of these systems come together to give a clear picture at what colleges will get when a players steps onto their campus.
Today, we look at '24 INF/OF Aidan Buntich who is ranked 144th in the '24 class from a strong West Ranch High School program. Buntich stands out in the box where his RH swing is loose with good bat speed with exit velocities up to 96 MPH. He moves well on the dirt with good footwork and enough arm strength to handle the left side of the INF. His arm strength plays better from the OF where he gets up to 91 MPH on his throws with accuracy. Buntich presents a good offensive profile with the athletic ability and actions to be a versatile defender. College programs looking to upgrade their offense should have Buntich on their board.
