Cruz Harlan, INF, Centralia (IL), 2024 Harlan was always an intriguing prep prospect, and he continues to look the part for the Vols. An athletic 5-foot-10, 160-pound frame, Harlan has plenty of upside still to come. The switch-hitter has a loose and easy swing from both sides of the plate, producing a max exit velocity of 97.1 mph. A 6.89 runner, his athleticism transitioned to the infield where he displayed clean and fluid footwork with soft hands to pair.

Verbally committed to John A. Logan JC.

4/11/23

Uncommitted. Athletic 5-foot-9, 150-pound switch-hitter that started at shortstop and hit leadoff for the Orphans. Clear athleticism to all facets of his game, easy balance at the plate, controlled load with a subtle stride. Loose fluid hands with bat speed from the left side, stays short to the baseball and keeps his barrel through the zone. Collected a pair of hits in the contest, both to right field, and entered this live look slashing .567/.729/.867 on the year. Really looked the part defensively in pre-game, floating effortlessly around the infield with clear range to both sides. Was tested a few times in-game, breaking down in rhythm to the baseball with soft hands that played out front of his body. Has the athleticism and fluidity to be an asset in center field too, adding more versatility to his future defensive profile. Also a standout basketball player for his high school team. A name-to-know prospect from the state’s southern region that’s still on the market.
