OK/KS/MO Scouting Supervisor
A legitimate two-way prospect with some pop at the dish, Jeter shines brightest on the mound. He pounds both sides of the plate with as low 80s fastball, but really separates himself with one of the best breaking balls in the OK 2021 class. TrackMan echoes what the eye sees and metrically puts the curveball near the top of the class as well.
