Comments
+ MIF Joe Chiarelli (Downers Grove North, 2023) popped as a follow up-the-middle defender at this event. Built at an athletic 6-foot, 160-pounds, Chiarelli is smooth with the glove, working with a relative ease to him on the dirt. He’s sure-handed with athletic feet that cover ground and allow him to play comfortably on the move. Offensively, Chiarelli swings a loose and quick left-handed bat that works directly to the baseball and stays on the barrel.
