Israel Hernandez, a 2027 graduate and middle infielder from Salpointe Catholic High School, continues to impress as a high-follow prospect for the Arizona staff. During the Tucson Summer ID, Hernandez showcased his premier glove and plus footwork up the middle, reinforcing his reputation as an elite defender. Offensively, Hernandez has added noticeable size, which translated into significant gains at the plate, including the top exit velocity of the day for the 2027 class at 92.8 mph. With his continued development and strong showing, Hernandez is expected to climb prospect lists in the coming weeks.
