Name: Erik Kaiser

Graduating Class: 2017

Position: RHP/3B

School: Waterloo

Height: 6-4

Weight: 190

Rank:
State: 10
Overall: 49

The Skinny:
At 6-foot-4, 190 pounds, Kaiser is a highly projectable two-way prospect who looks to be one of the top prospects in Illinois’ 2017 class. The right-handed pitcher features upper-80s velocity on the mound, athletic and loose, with reports of more. Certainly there is more in the tank. While he will likely be recruited as a pitcher, Kaiser is a switch-hitting third baseman who batted in the middle of the lineup for Waterloo as a sophomore.

Scouting Report:
6-foot-4, 185-pound frame, young for his age, still isn't close to filling into frame. Two-way talent, though ranked primarily for his arm on the mound. Did not pitch in the game, but showed off arm in a few plays at third base. Switch-hitter, bats cleanup for high school team. Finished 1-for-4 with a single and run scored. (Report from high school game in spring)

The Future Games:
This one-of-a-kind event will feature the best uncommitted Class of 2017 prospects from our 20-plus state coverage area. The Future Games will take place on July 30 - Aug 1 (Thursday-Saturday) at Grand Park, a state-of-the-art 22-field baseball complex located in Westfield, IN, just north of Indianapolis. The Prep Baseball Report Future Games is the premier summer scouting event for Class of 2017 prospects and select 2018 prospects.
