Quick Hits: 2022 LHP Will Taylor (McQuaid)
December 30, 2020
Over the next few months the Prep Baseball Report (NY/PA) will be highlighting players in several different article formats, including Dan Cevette's "Quick Hits".
The "Quick Hits" article will focus in on standout players from our events our scouting staff has seen over the last year, allowing me the opportunity to give my quick hit thoughts on the player. Let's dive right in.
Will Taylor LHP / OF / McQuaid Jesuit, NY / 2022Rankings StateRank: 152 / POS: 12
CEVETTE'S TAKE: There's a lot to like about the long, lean, 6-foot-1 lefty from the greater Rochester, NY area. The mechanics are sound, compact, and repeatable. I've seen cleaner arm-swings but his arm still works easy with little restrictions. The velocity fluctuates in the low to mid 80's, but as the frame adds strength expect to see the FB add more life and velo. There's natural arm-side run on the heater, and already shows an advanced feel for spin (2590 spin rate on CB). I'm expecting to see big jumps from Taylor this spring and summer. STATE RANK: 152
