The state of Michigan is filled with high-level baseball prospects throughout each corner of the state. The 2018 class has commitments all across the United States, from Vanderbilt to Miami to Kentucky to Missouri to Nebraska and many more colleges across the U.S. When looking at the 2018 rankings, you will see plenty of Michigan colleges littered throughout all of the commitments as well.

The 2019, 2020 and 2021 classes are also loaded and primed to make some big-time commitments to colleges all across the nation over the next few years. We at PBR Michigan look to bring you insightful information on these big-time commits as well as giving everyone a look at some of the top uncommitted prospects available as well.

Uncommitted Spotlight: Batka Has Plenty To Sell About His Game

Keegan Batka RHP / C / Grand Rapids Christian, MI / 2020

GRAND RAPIDS - A three-way player?

That is how Keegan Batka views himself. If nothing else, it gives colleges an option to fill at least one of three positions.

While most of the Grand Rapids Christian sophomore’s interest at the next level is as a right-handed pitcher, Batka also excels behind the plate as a catcher as well as in the infield at short or third.

“I’m a three-way player,” Batka said. “I’m the number one starter on my high school team, I’ve had a 1.95 pop time and I can throw it hard across the diamond.”

Playing three positions means a strong work ethic to be ready at each when called upon.
