2/26/22

Schrader made a strong statement throughout the event, starting with his outfield defense. He played with athletic, aggressive feet and attacked the baseball with concise routes and confident, clean actions paired with arm strength (89 mph). He ran after his round of outfield defense and clocked a 6.55 time that he appeared to be disappointed in, but impressed us nonetheless. Schrader followed all this up with a quality round of batting practice, showcasing a quick, loose swing that made a lot of hard contact right back up the middle of the field. Schrader recorded impressive hand speed (25.5 mph average) during BP, the second highest of the event, to go along with an average rotational acceleration of 26g, which was also the second best on Saturday. Schrader heads into the spring with his stock on the rise.

2/15/21

6-foot, 170-pound OF Clay Schrader (Naperville Central, 2023) put together his best performance we have seen to date. Schrader started his day running a 6.95 in the 60, down from a 7.48 last summer. Offensively, he has a simple right-handed swing with minimal effort and above-average bat strength for his age. Schrader recorded a max exit velocity of 92.1 mph off the bat during BP with a max distance of 347 feet. He also showed a max bat speed of 72 mph, via Blast. Defensively, he has potential to profile at all three spots thanks to his 6.95 foot speed and an arm that played at 87 mph (topped at 78 mph last summer). He's an on-the-rise follow in Illinois’ 2023 class.
