‘29 INF Braden Womack had a strong weekend with multiple barrels in games showing some power potential. At the plate, Braden is a left-handed hitter with a very repeatable swing that he uses well with good extension that allows him to use the whole field well. In the field, Braden is a predominantly corner infielder which matches his offensive ability. Already standing at 5’11, Braden has a lot more room to fill out and tap into that power in high school.

‘30 INF Will McAplin showed a presence at the plate beyond his years with good timing and rhythm. He uses a bit of leg kick and sets his hands in a higher slot which allows him to explode through the zone well. Will has a strong, athletic frame that he uses well with a good amount of twitch and pull side pop. Will’s athleticism will give him options in the field as he should have the ability to play anywhere. A high follow as he enters the high school level.

‘30 MIF Brennan Thomas was super impressive over the weekend proving to be an absolute force at the plate with multiple extra base hits along with a grand slam. At the plate, Brennan gets his foot down quick and uses twitch to turn around fastballs. Brennan has good size at 5’10 and a projectable, athletic frame that will fill out with age. Looks the part at shortstop and looks to stick in the infield. Brennan will be a high follow in high school.

‘30 C Jacob Sweet is a former Junior Future Gamer who was a standout during that week with multihit games and showing the ability to play the catcher position at a high level. Jacob continued to show his potential this weekend with a strong lower half at the plate and incredibly quick hands that he uses to hit for power to all fields. At the catcher position, Jacob is a real athlete and moves well with a strong arm. Jacob also has rare speed for the catcher position with the ability to steal bases at a high rate.

‘30 1B Carter Kime showed the ability to be a true power threat and the potential for more down the road. Carter has good size standing at 6’0 180 lbs and will get stronger in high school so he can fully tap into his ceiling as a power hitter. At the plate, Carter already has a good feel for his swing and lift. In game, Carter launched a massive double to the opposite field gap. Carter will be a high follow in high school to see how he progresses.

‘30 INF/RHP Nolan Horvath is a former Junior Future Gamer who showed up as a legit two way prospect that will look to tap into that potential in high school. This weekend, Nolan showed some real progression with multiple big hits and spraying the ball to all fields. At the plate, Nolan does a great job of staying on plane and getting extension. In the field, Nolan fits best as a corner infielder and should stick there with an above average arm.
