Georgia Tech Commit. 6-foot-3, 195 pounds. This was easily one of the most memorable performances I’ve seen this spring, and it was great to be able to evaluate so many of Tai’s tools in 7 innings. First he was able to showcase his vast defensive skill set. He showed impressive anticipation, ability to read hops, and feel for changing arm angles on a slow roller that he had to go more of a sub slot on. The exchange was a combo of perfectly smooth & quick. Not soon after he showed off his innate instincts and current plus range on 2 balls hit directly up the middle, getting to both with ease and explosive bounds. Despite being 6’3, Peete plays the position with an extremely low center of gravity and eye opening body balance for his size. The arm is an easy + tool and this is as pure of a SS as they come with plus potential across the board at a premium defensive position. Offensively is just more of the same, with near elite swing mechanics that develop in perfect sequence. His forward move is dynamic, efficient, and produces optimal torque in separation for high impact missiles. He showed an ability simplify the approach with 2 strikes, widening his base & cutting down the stride to focus on contact (still hit a HR). His 2nd HR Tai went with a more aggressive move to the ball (leg kick) steepening the barrel with the top hand late in path to send a ball into the sky (right center) with the trajectory of a G6 jet. So add feel to hit and plus raw power potential to his future A/AVG glove, ++ range, plus arm, plus run, and you’ve got an easy Day 1 draft with a chance to move into the 1st Rd. With him being 17 at draft, this is the highest ceiling in the class.
Georgia Tech Commit. 6 foot 3, 185 pounds. Young for the class, Peete has huge upside as a two-way prospect. On the mound, he currently runs his fastball into the low 90s and is able to create heavy tilt. He complements it with a lively changeup. His arm works smooth and lightning quick out of an over-the-top slot. Offensively, the left-handed hitter has some of the top power potential in the class with clear pull-side power. Still growing into his lengthy, athletic frame, there is still more to come out of Peete.
Peete might have the highest upside of any prospect at the PBR Future Games, and given the fact that he is nearly a year young for the class, his future potential might be even brighter. The wiry, 6-foot-2, 170-pounder is still becoming acquainted with new movement patterns of a long frame, but already showcases impressive understanding of his swing path from the left side. He exhibited quickness of the hands with an uphill path that produced firm gap-to-gap strength, and promises much more as he continues to fill out. Perhaps equally as impressive, he hopped on the mound in the final game of the weekend, and ran his fastball up to 89 mph from a polished delivery with feel for both a changeup and breaking ball. Peete’s athleticism is obvious, especially in the swing, and as he continues getting stronger, expect him to make considerable jumps.
6-foot-3 170-pounds. Tons of athleticism from the long limbed, lanky frame. FB was up to 84. Sat mostly 80-83. Slow, smooth delivery with some aggression on the finish. Really reaches back, and finishes really well. The CB is still developing, but showed really good shape, and depth. Competed really well for a freshman. Expect him to carry a substantial amount of innings for the lions.
5-foot-11, 140-pound two-way prospect, athletic frame, long build, projectable. On the mound, got the start for Homeplate Chili Dogs. Fastball worked mostly 74-76, touched 78 mph. Curveball at 59 mph. Offensively, left-handed hitter, takes an athletic setup, calm/relaxed demeanor in the box. Line drive approach with developing gap-to-gap abilities.
