Top 20 Profiles of 2020: No. 2 Cam Collier


Phil Kerber
Georgia Scouting Director

And then there were two. The No. 2 spot in the our countdown of the top-20 most viewed profiles of 2020 belongs to Louisville commit 3B/RHP Cam Collier (Mt. Paran, 2023). Collier is the top ranked 2023 in the state of Georgia and the No. 4-ranked prospect in the country. In last year's countdown, he came in at No. 10.

Collier is a game changing talent with the ability to affect the game at the plate and on the mound. Offensively, he has a powerful left-handed swing that can drive the ball to all fields. What stands out are how good his hands and eyes are. He sees the zone like few at his age can and has an innate ability to hit. He can shorten up and line one through the left-side or he can load up and turn on one, the versatility is impressive. On the mound, he can run his fastball into the low 90s with life and throws a swing and miss breaking ball.

Scouting Report

2/25/20

Louisville commit. The 6-foot, 190 pound third-baseman continued to swing the bat well. Hit the ball hard in three straight at bats, continuing to show ability to hit the ball hard to all fields. Had a one-hop double to left-center, a hard hit single up-the-middle, and a long fly out to RF in consecutive at bats. Barrel showing thump and stays easy through the zone

2/22/20

Louisville commit. 6-foot, 190-pound left-handed hitting two-way prospect, thick, strong frame, ample strength in his lower half and shows no signs of slowing down the addition of more muscle. Typically known for his power bat, hopped on the mound on Saturday night. Arm works with some length, quick arm speed allows for him to get out front. Used exclusively fastballs, sat 84-85, touched 87. Had some command issues, but in a high pressure situation, with his team winning by two runs with two outs in the seventh inning and the bases loaded, he rose to the occasion and collected the one out save.

9/27/19

Louisville commit, continues to be a consistent performer this fall for MGBA. About as physical as it gets for a member of the Class of 2023 currently, stands 6-foot, 190-pounds, thick frame with strength throughout and much more to come. Hits everything hard from the left-side of the plate with loose hands, barrel works mostly level as he peppered the right-side of the field all weekend at the PBR Cup.

9/18/19

The Louisville commit showed why he is one of the top 2023 two-way players in the country over the weekend. At 6-foot, 190 pounds, the thick, physical Collier displayed power and consistency everywhere on the field. Uses a waggle rhythm load with hands, has impressive hand speed and barrel whip. Easy power as Collier wore out the right-center gap all tournament. Showed a good approach and strike-zone awareness; rarely chased pitches and battled very well with two strikes. Situational hitter. On the mound, has advanced arm strength with easy effort. FB sat 82-84,T85. Did not show off-speed very much as he challenged predominantly with FB. #2 ranked player in Georgia 2023 Class.

7/04/19

Verbally committed to Louisville.

6/02/19

The big-bodied 6-foot righty was sitting at an easy 80-82 mph, and touched 83 mph in his day of work from the rubber. He also operates as the team’s starting shortstop when he’s not on the mound and is a natural with the glove, and obviously has the arm strength to play on the left side of the infield.
