MIF Ty Brooks (2023) has a chance to be one of the top defenders up the middle in Alabama when it’s all said and done. During this look on Monday, Brooks handled the bat fairly well out of the leadoff spot for the Indians. At roughly 5-9, 165 pounds, the left-handed middle infielder got things going in the 1st when he pulled a fastball over the plate and served it into right field for his first base hit of the game. In his third at-bat, Brooks showed poise and maturity by handling a pitch on the outer-half of the plate and driving it the other way for another base knock in the contest. While still being fairly slim, Brooks plays to his strengths with a line drive/base hit type approach at the plate. He gets short to contact, and extends nicely throughout the swing and stays on the baseball efficiently. Defensively, Brooks possesses excellent feet that allows him to receive that correct hop, and uses soft & reliable hands to defend. He moves exceptionally well laterally, and could easily move to 2nd base in the future or stick at shortstop.

5-foot-9, approximately 170 pound slim frame. Advanced actions at the plate and defensively. From the left side, Brooks is a line drive type hitter with feel for hit to the backside gap. Still more room for strength and growth over the next few years. Balanced throughout his swing, doesn't chase pitches and is very selective at the plate. Very solid with the glove at shortstop. Will start there for 6A Wetumpka. Excellent feet and a quick transfer. Will be a sophomore to watch this spring.
