With 2019 coming to a close and the 2020 high school season quickly approaching there are a handful of talented uncommitted prospects that are likely to attract the attention of a few programs. Our boot-on-the-ground scouting team have seen 500+ players at showcase events, all with dreams of playing baseball at the next level. The "Uncommitted Spotlight" is meant to cast a brighter light onto 2020 talent still looking for a place to call home next fall. Today we shine our "Uncommitted Spotlight" on RHP Jalen Davenport who was a standout at this year's Border Battle.

Scouting Report

1.19.19
Athletic, muscular frame at 5-foot-10, 180-pounds. Davenport topped out at 87 once, 86 a couple of times, but the right-hander throws a fastball that cuts and sinks with good movement at 81-86 mph. Works from a 3/4 slot with a long arm swing and drop and drive delivery. Changeup was his best off speed pitch at 75-76 mph, and he spun his breaking ball at 64-69 mph.


1.5.19
Davenport has a muscular frame at 5-foot-10, 180-pounds. The right-hander topped out at 90 on the bump, working mostly 86-89 with a long reach out of the glove and max effort delivery. Threw his changeup with same arm speed at 75-78 mph, allowing for quality arm side fade. Spun his curveball at 66-68 mph with early break. Started the day with a 6.92 60-yard dash. The right-handed hitter has strong hands and posted a top exit velocity of 87 mph. Works on a flat path through the zone with feel for the barrel, making hard contact during BP. In the outfield, he threw with a top velocity of 87 mph from a long arm swing and high-¾ slot.
