A quartet of infielders who stood out, especially defensively were Aaden Guerrero (Lyons Township), Gavin Triezenberg (Brother Rice), Andrew Kouris (Nazareth Academy) and Francisco Rodriguez (De La Salle).
Rodriguez has an athletic look to his game and he played low to the ground and through the ball, gaining ground with fluid footwork before firing the ball across the diamond (T88 mph).
Positional Profile: SS/OF
Body: 6-1, 170-pounds. High-waisted, athletic build with projection.
Hit: RHH. Wide open stance, backside load, short stride, minimal hand movement. Controls the barrel, repeats, spray approach and consistently on-time.
Power: 88 max exit velocity, averaged 85.6 mph. 305’ max distance.
Arm: RH. INF - 88 mph. Loose, athletic arm, 3/4 release.
Defense: Athletic actions, plays low through the ball and gains ground, clean movements with an athletic look.
Run: 7.46 runner in the 60.
UITL Francisco Rodriguez (De La Salle, 2025) made a strong first impression on our staff both at the plate and on defense. The 5-foot-11, 153-pound, athletically-built, right-handed hitter has a polished swing and middle of the field approach. Rodriguez stays on balance throughout his swing and gets the barrel out front efficiently and on time. The bat path is short and direct to contact with flashes of some juice to the pull side. Rodriguez continued to impress in both the outfield and infield with quick and clean footwork and natural ease and confidence to his game. He has a calm approach to the ball and soft hands with athletic overall actions. 2025 to know moving forward.
