Michael
Iannazzo

A left-handed hitting middle infielder. The top tool is the bat, should play at a high level. The stance is spread out and wide, loose hands at the shoulders. Looks to drive the baseball with authority to all fields, does a great job going to left center gap. The tee exit velocity was clocked at 83 mph and ran an impressive 7.12 sixty-yard dash. Defensively, soft hands, works low, good flow, arm works, clocked at 71 mph. 

5-foot-8, 130 pounds, a wiry build right now with shoulder slope and average proportions, he is still two years away from entering the high school ranks. Ran an 8.00 sixty yard dash, with a quick first step for someone of his age. A left-handed hitter, Iannazzo showed some polish with the swing and feel for the barrell. Working from a slightly open stance with hands rested on the shoulders and a balance base, he employs a toe tap as a timing mechanism. Second round of BP displayed consistent hard contact to the middle-pull parts of the field. Engages the lower half well and rotates through, hands have fluidity to them. His tee exit velocity was measured at 82 MPH, an impressive metric for a player his age. Working as a middle infielder, Iannazzo throws from a slot. Can short arm the ball a bit looking to get it out of his hand quickly. As this is addressed, expect the position velocity to spike up from 65 MPH. Moves his feet well with soft hands. Showed ability to make adjustments quickly, especially on some of his DP turns. A 2023 middle infield prospect who hits from the left side who can already show consistency with the bat makes him an exciting player. Good baseline to build on from here.
