Owen
Rivera

INF Owen Rivera (Von Stueben, 2023) showed advanced actions and feel on the infield. The 5-foot-11, 184-pound junior has quick feet, quality hands, and works well on the move with multiple arm slot accuracy. Offensively, Rivera has loose athletic hands and a middle-of-the-field approach.

Rivera’s a pop-up prospect who exited our PBR at The Rock Fall Championships with some momentum, as he notched five hits and five RBIs in his team’s four games. He’s a lanky 5-foot-11, 185 pounds, with a simple, loose right-handed swing that projects as he continues to mature and develop.
