2/04/24
1B Josh Ziemer (Glenbard East) is yet another 2026 to make a name for himself at the event. Ziemer has a 5-foot-11, 205-pound, physical, compact build and his swing matches his stature. He stays compact and connected with loose, strong hands, natural lift through the zone and present bat strength. Ziemer registered a 93.9 mph max exit velocity while launching his furthest batted ball 334’. He was also top-5 in average bat speed at the event and moved around the first base bag with comfort.
