Phil Kerber
Georgia Scouting Director

As we begin to close the book on 2022 and shift our focus to a brand-new year, we continue our tradition of highlighting the Top-25 Most Viewed Profiles for the calendar year. Using Google Analytics, our staff was able to compile a list of the Top-25 prospects whose PBR profile was viewed the most in 2022. Many of the players mentioned on this list produced at a high level at various PBR events over the course of the last 12 months.

Starting on December 7th, we began counting down from No. 25 all the way to No. 1, which will be announced on December 31st. Coming in at No. 13 in our countdown of the most viewed profiles of 2022 is one of the breakout stars of the 2022 PBR Future Games, Georgia Tech commit C Dom Stephenson of Harrison High School.

Scouting Report

9/04/22
Georgia Tech Commit. 6 foot 1, 175 pounds. It’s hard to believe a player who just turned 15 years old has swing mechanics better than many in pro ball, but it's true. Elite athleticism can do things like that, but it didn’t come without hard work. What are the keys that make Dom’s swing so advanced? First off is the simplicity in the swing. This is one of the biggest differences in an amateur swing to a pro swing. Most amateur swings have one or multiple wasted movements - hips load back too far, hands stray too far from hitting slot, head moves too much, swing is too rotational, separation is too big. Stephenson has zero wasted movement in the swing already, so the ceiling he can reach in his swing is elite. As he gets stronger (he’s going to be extremely strong) his quiet head will become completely motionless, bat speed more controlled & violent, forward move and bat path more efficient. His separation timing is already elite, and he’s able to create great rubberband effect without a lengthy load of the hands. This is one of the biggest reasons he hits velo so well at such a young age. He gunned down multiple runners at 2B in the Labor Day Open, registering 1.96 and 1.98 pop times. The potential to be an elite catch and throw guy is there, and everything about his mature demeanor and quiet confidence screams future star.

Stephenson was easily one of my favorite players at the event, performing well in all facets including presenting one of the highest ceilings at the event. The 6-foot-1, 168-pounder has significant room to add strength to a frame that is already impressive, and will only get more so. Behind the dish, his loose hips and soft hands provided the look of an advanced receiver, and the catch-and-throw capability is elite for the class. Though the defense was stellar, the bat is what really stood out at the event. A right-handed hitter, Stephenson slows things down in the box allowing his quick hands to work freely with length from the barrel through the zone while on a flat path. He went 3-for-6 in game play against some premium arms, and showed no issue tracking, picking up spin early and maintaining balance. It appears likely that he will see a significant uptick in power in coming years. Overall, the Future Games was a massive coming out party for the young Georgia product

Positional Profile: C/OF One of the top 2025s in the state, advanced athlete behind the plate with tools that will only get louder as he matures.

Hit: RHH. Relaxed, slightly open stance with a high back elbow, smooth rhythm in hands, deeps and drops hands on load, short leg lift stride, great balance. Short, quick swing to the zone, gets extended and somewhat uphill through allowing him to lift and drive with force middle/pull, ball jumps off his barrel.
Power: 89.6 max exit velocity, averaged 81.4 mph. 306’ max distance. Projectable power.
Arm: RH. C - 75 mph. OF - 85 mph. Behind the plate, short arm action to an over-the-top slot, throws are true with back-spin, on target. Lengthens arm out in the outfield, carry.

Run: 7.00 runner in the 60. Fluid with a clean gait.
