Demir
Heidelberg

One of the highest ceilings of the event belongs to 1B Demir Heidelberg (Homewood Flossmoor, 2025), who boasts a 6-foot-3, 165-pound, long-limbed, highly-projectable frame and swing. His right-handed swing works loose and slightly uphill with jump off the barrel when he gets extended. He has a gap to gap approach and when he adds strength to his lean frame there is a chance to be a power bat to all fields. Defensively he has a long, loose, athletic arm paired with light, athletic feet. Heidelberg registered a max exit velocity of 91.7 mph and topped at 78 mph across the diamond.
