McGuire was an easy choice for this list as he took home the MV-Pitcher award from the the 2025 California State Games event. He took the mound to start the day on Friday for the grey squad and would provide some electricity to get the day going. With a wiry build on his 6'4 frame at 188.6 lbs. McGuire is a clean mover down the mound showing consistent feel for his four pitch arsenal. His FB is the centerpiece of the quality pitch mix living at 86-87 on the offering while bumping 88 MPH that plays at the bottom of the zone or above the zone for chase. His trio of offspeed offerings help him to keep hitters off balance with the feel to throw each for strikes and an intriguing SPLT which dives off the table below the zone for chase (tunneling effectively off his FB at the bottom of the zone). McGuire would pucnh out eight hitters over his three innings and allow no runs to earn himself the MV-Pitcher honors and a spot on the top performers from Fullerton Union High School game play.
