Michael
Umbright

Uncommitted. Currently ranked No. 48 in the state. 6-foot-5, 223-pound frame, strong and athletically built with room to fill out even more as he matures. Impressed on the mound over five innings of work, allowing two earned runs with four hits, eight strikeouts and two walks. The right-hander worked his fastball up to 90 mph early, sitting mostly 87-89 mph and settling in at 86-88 later in the outing. His fastball plays with some life and finish through the zone with arm-side run, setting up an above-average diving changeup at 79-80 mph, thrown with a loose arm and confidence in any count. His third offering was an 11/5 curveball, flashing depth at times but occasionally stiffening up his arm, 66-69 mph. He also took some quality at-bats throughout the day, working on the barrel a couple times and finishing 1-for-4 with an RBI and run scored. Intriguing two-way prospect with noteworthy upside, especially on the mound. 

INF/RHP Michael Umbright (Naperville Central) and INF/RHP Camden Raddatz (Effingham) are a couple of uncommitted two-way prospects who deserve a mention for what they did in all areas of the event. 

Umbright, who was making his PBR showcase debut, catches your attention initially thanks to his 6-foot-5, 223-pound, physical, well-proportioned build. He then proceeded to show off a simple, easy, highly-repeatable right-handed swing with well above-average strength attached to it, resulting in a 96.3 mph average exit velocity (T99.8 mph), good for second-best on the day. Umbright also ran a 7.31 60, showed steady infield actions and jumped on the mound where he worked from a ¾ slot and sat 87-89 mph with heavy running action.
