Ebel

2025 SOUTHERN CALIFORNIA MLK WEEKEND SCOUT NOTEBOOK: Getting work in at third base and shortstop vs Oaks Christian, the left handed hitter pulled a double to the right field wall to bring in a run for Corona. Ebel displayed physical projection with broad shoulders and a lengthy frame with athleticism as he stood out in the batter's box and on the left side of the dirt. The senior is a natural fielder and executes footwork, fundamentals and displayed above average fielding actions while being equipped with an accurate, loose arm. The LSU commit has a high draft profile and is projected for a strong offensive season for the Corona Panthers.

Prep Baseball All-American Game: Premier defensive projection on the left side of the dirt lead the way for the top uncommitted Junior in the country. Standing 6-foot-3, 180-pounds with substantial projection remaining, Ebel shows advanced flexibility and lightning-quick transfers that allows the glove to be a vacuum. Excellent lateral range and athleticism to make the highlight plays. There’s a real path to a plus glove at either third base or short. Ebel produces heavy barrels at the plate with quiet hands and a shorter leg kick that keeps him balanced consistently. Feel for manipulating the barrel throughout the zone while staying on-plane stands out. Ebel has been around pro baseball his entire life, and showcases a big-league mindset on the diamond.

UC AREA CODE GAMES: Ebel looked the part of a professional the entire week, and his ability to generate a heavy barrel with minimal movement bodes well for his future upside. Noticeably stronger than a year ago at 6-foot-3, 185-pounds, the left-handed hitting shortstop registered three hits in eight at-bats to go along with FIVE walks. No player showcased a stronger eye than Ebel who tracked effortlessly without being sped up. Confident in his approach, the hands drive the barrel more directly to the ball with minor separation, but still yield firmer contact with considerable power potential to all fields. There was an aura to the way that he handled himself on the diamond, and he commanded the box and the count with the look of a grizzled vet. Perhaps more inspiring was his movement on the infield. While the frame and power profile will provide more than enough value for a shift to third base, his athleticism and innate glove-to-hand ability combined with a strong arm in looking the part at shortstop throughout the week. Each ground ball that headed his way was an assumed out, and his continued residency at shortstop appeared more than likely.
