Taran Hogan, Salpointe Catholic (AZ), 2028
Positional Profile: 3B/1B
Body: 5-10, 160-pounds.
Hit: RHH. Open stance with a tall posture. Hands are held above the head and drop to below the shoulder at launch, creating some movement pre swing. Short and direct to the ball with a downhill to flat bat path. Will cut the swing off after contact and favors the pull side. Produces mostly line drive contact with fair use of the lower half when synced. 64.7 mph bat speed with 9 G's of rotational acceleration.
Power: 95 max exit velocity, averaged 89.4 mph. 343' max distance.
Arm: RH. INF-74 mph. OF-76 mph. INF: Accurate thrower who relies on timing and clean footwork more than raw strength. Throws show some carry when his feet are working through the target. OF: Arm strength is modest with minimal carry and some arm side tail on throws. Accuracy can vary, but the arm plays best when he stays under control through the release.
Defense: INF: Easy, smooth mover with natural actions. Can be late getting the glove down and will occasionally stop his feet on the approach, but does a good job regaining momentum after the catch and setting himself up to make accurate throws. OF: Will rush into the breakdown at times and can look out of control on the approach, but consistently keeps momentum moving through his throws. Continuing to slow the feet and clean up the approach will help improve overall efficiency in the outfield.
ATH: 7.62 runner in the 60. 1.75 and 4.16 in the 10 and 30 yard splits.
Vizual Edge: 82.71 Edge Score
