Simply put, there wasn’t a player in Emerson who had a louder week than Myles Bailey. Hitting .500 with three home runs and eight RBI over 5 games, and while the counting stats are impressive, it’s the prestigious power he produced to achieve those results that really turned heads. Bailey had exit velocities of 103.8 (oppo), 105.5 (HR), 110 (HR) along with multiple BBEs of 95+ over the week. It’s without question some of the best raw power in the entire 2024 class. Utilizing a wide base and pre-pitch bag wiggle, the Florida State commit presents a short, compact left-handed swing with above-average bat speed and present barrel whip throughout the zone. Ability to drive the ball to all-fields with ease was evident and did damage against spin and velo alike. Very physical frame at 6-foot-4, 220lbs that continues to improve with some sneaky athleticism gives Bailey a chance at 3B, but the bat is potent enough for a 1B profile with higher defensive potential. After a fantastic spring season with 10 HR and a 1.454 OPS, this was just the type of performance to jump-start an even better summer and start his ascend up draft boards.
