5-foot-10, 150 pound frame with room to build muscle and grow. Started at second base for the state champion Roadrunners. Calm, collected presence at the plate, advanced and mature approach for age. Simple and direct left-handed swing with little swing-and-miss in our looks. Limits zone expansion and selective in hitters counts. Advanced bat-to-ball skills for age, fluid hands that stay through the zone on a level plane, controls the barrel. Knack for consistent contact, will start to hit for more power as he mature physically. Soft glove that works out front, rhythmic feet, comfortable mover on the dirt. A high-end prospect in the Illinois’ 2026 class, currently No. 4 overall, who’s skill-set is seemingly capable of positively impacting the game in multiple ways.
Uncommitted, currently ranked No. 4 in the Illinois’ 2026 class. 5-foot-10, 155-pound, left-handed hitting middle infield with strength in the lower half. Defensively, showed smooth, natural infield actions throughout the day at second base, including pre game, where he flashed soft confident hands and the ability to change platforms with his arm that plays loose and accurate. At the plate, hit in the eight-hole. Advanced approach and presence in the box, especially for his age. Stays within himself, uses the whole field, keeps his hands inside the baseball and highly-advanced bat-to-ball skills; very minimal swing and miss and features a heavy barrel. Natural loft through the zone, looks to elevate the baseball and ball jumps off the bat, given his age and stature. High-follow left-handed hitter in the class.
Athletic left-handed hitting shortstop with an advanced approach at the plate. Showed patience and refused to extend the strike zone. Sets up in a balanced, slightly open stance with a short stride and smooth loading actions. Thome has a short and compact swing that he is able to repeat easily. His barrel works on a slight uphill path through the zone to lift the baseball to all fields.
A 5-foot-4, 122-pounds, left-handed hitter. Simple, balanced setup, hands resting on his shoulder, squared feet, controlled load to a short stride. Athletic hands, compact swing through the zone, whole field approach, fluid rhythm.
