OF Riley Contreras (Hinsdale Central, 2026) is another young physical prospect to note. The 5-foot-11, 168-pound, broad-shouldered, multi-sport athlete has advanced hand/wrist strength and creates above-average bat speed for his age. Its a short, direct path and the ball jumps off the barrel when the swing syncs up. In the outfield, Contreras plays through the ball with intent and rhythm, utilizing a soft glove hand out front and through the ball with an efficient shuffle into a crow hop – reaching up to 83 mph.

6/11/22

 

Contreras is built at an athletic 5-foot-10, 162-pound frame with proportional strength attached. Hit towards the middle of the lineup for Cangelosi Sparks and also emerged a winner from this winter’s Lockport Rising Stars ID. Physical presence in the box with above-average hand strength for age and thump off the barrel. Got off several aggressive hacks before turning on an inner-half fastball for a no-doubt home run.

Another toolsy outfield prospect with a high-ceiling was 5-foot-10, 155-pound Riley Contreras (Hinsdale Central, 2026). Contreras ran one of the top 60’s of the day at 7.02, topped at 81 mph from the outfield and flashed pull-side leverage in his right-handed swing.
