Billy Cole: SS/RHP, (2026) Hamden Hall, CT. 5-foot-10, 150-pound. (67.0 mph bat speed average). (21.3 mph hand speed average). Began in a balanced quiet stance with a compact load, then used a small leg kick. Bat speed is efficient, uses a level swing plane and balanced finish. Solid in the infield, his best throw was registered at 73 mph; shows consistent feet, sure hands, and a natural exchange. Laterally, movements were athletic and fielded the ball out front. Had a quick arm action with a high ¾ slot. Recorded a time of 7.45 in the 60-yard dash. On the mound, showed a loose arm action and a high ¾ arm angle with consistent arm speed. Drop-and-drive type pitcher and uses some effort. Changeup (67-68 mph). Produced a fastball that came in at 70-72 mph. Had slight running action. (Max spin 1945; Avg 1811). Throws a 11/5 curveball (60-61) with gradual action. (Max spin 1532; Avg 1420).
5-foot-8, 140-pound, lean athletic frame, with room for added weight gains. A right-handed hitter, starts slightly open, uses a higher, longer leg kick. The swing is down to level to up, hands stay inside the baseball, approach is middle to opposite. The exit velocity was clocked at 76 mph and ran a 7.78 sixty-yard dash. Defensively, showed, good prep steps, fields out front and low to the ground. Good flow, hands and feet working well together. The arm action is loose an whippy, threw 66 mph, with more in there. Showed feel on starts and turns. Off the mound, works from the set position, up tempo, quick motion. The arm works from a higher slot. The fastball was up to 68 mph, with life. Mixed in a slurvey breaker at 63 mph. Attacks, look for a big jump at some point.
Exit Velocity: 76 mph
Arm Velocity: 66 mph
Sixty-Yard Dash: 7.78
