Scouting Report
Athletic 6'0" 185 lbs. frame with present physicality. The Ascension Catholic HS product is one of the top uncommitted two-way prospects in the Louisiana 2023 class. Defensively, Leonard profiles as a corner infielder/corner outfielder and could also play second base, giving him positional versatility. At the plate, Leonard uses a modified leg kick load to get back to center, before delivering a direct path to the ball with slightly uphill extension. Gap to gap approach with a maximum exit velocity of 90 mph. On the mound, Leonard works his fastball up to 87 mph, sitting 84-86 mph, to go along with an "11-5" shape breaking ball with average spin and depth. Changeup is a quality third offering.
