On Sunday, October 4th, our staff hosted the Chicagoland Fall ID at The Max in McCook, IL. This event was host to about 20 players from around the state, allowing our staff to get an in-depth look at each prospect in a pro-style workout.

Today, we are taking a look at every single player that was in attendance, with their full scouting reports found below. 

OF Alex Turan (Lake Forest, 2027) deserves a mention on the day, recording the best 60 time by almost a quarter of a second at 6.64. He’s a right-handed hitter that showed some feel to spray the gaps in his round of BP, and he also looks to be an athletic defender with a strong arm.
