+ 2020 1B Wesley Sides (DeSoto Central HS) has a sturdy, strong frame at 6-foot-1, 215-pounds. Sides was impressive during BP as the right-handed hitter showed off fast-strong hands that generate the type of easy bat speed that will draw the attention of college recruiters.

+ 2021 RHP/3B Cole Tolbert (West Jones HS) is going to be fun to watch over the next couple of years. At 6-foot-3, 205-pound the right-hander has a long, lean frame with a long arm swing from a high-¾ slot that produces heavy arm side run at 84-86 mph, topping out once at 88 mph. His curveball was 68-69, and also showed feel for a changeup with fading action at 67-69 mph. Displayed a confident presence on the mound. Recruiters will need to make sure they follow Tolbert closely as there is already hand speed with some feel for three pitches.

+ 2020 SS/RHP Robert Riggin (Raymond HS) displayed solid footwork on the infield as his hands worked out front, playing low through the baseball. Arm works well from a high slot as he threw 84 mph across the diamond with good carry. The arm also played on the mound, as the right-hander sat 78-82, topping at 84 mph, with a long arm swing from a ¾ slot. Though the approach at the plate is still developing, Riggin was able to produce an exit velocity of 89 mph.

+ 2020 2B/RHP Mac Sims (DeSoto Central HS) handle the ball in the middle of the field with a mid-line exchange, solid glove action and smooth footwork as he plays through the ball. An athletic 5-foot-11, 170-pound frame, the switch-handed hitter took a solid round of batting practice from the right side showcasing loose, quick hands through the zone producing an 86 mph exit velocity.

+ 2020 1B/C Austin Lee (Germantown HS) has a broad shouldered, high-waisted frame that projects to add even more strength in the next year at 6-foot-5, 215-pounds. The left-handed hitter starts from a tall, stacked setup with relaxed hands, then loads up as he triggers his hands and tips the barrel forward, and taking a short stride. Hands work through the zone with looseness, creating lag in the barrel to go with lift through the zone, to create a top exit velocity of 86 mph. Didn’t have much to show for it during the game, but he did make some really good passes on a couple of balls that he just missed.
