Tani delivered one of the most complete performances of the event, showing poise on both sides of the ball. A true switch-hitter, he flashed barrel accuracy and line-drive consistency from both sides, reaching a 95.6 mph max exit velocity with 22.3 mph max hand speed during BP. The swings mirror each other well, with a slightly more fluid look from the right side in game action. Tani carried that rhythm into gameplay, collecting a base hit from each side of the plate, showing an all-fields approach on both swings. On defense, he showcased smooth footwork and a strong, accurate 82 mph arm across the diamond. His two-way ability was on full display when he hopped on the mound and delivered a scoreless inning with three strikeouts, attacking hitters with confidence. The FB sat 81-83 mph with whiff in the zone and also showed off two strong secondaries (CB: 70-71, CH: 73-75) that he could both land for strikes. Overall, Tani impressed as one of the most well-rounded and projectable 2027 prospects from the event.
