Athletic 5-foot-10, 155-pound frame with room to add strength. Rennette had quite the weekend at the plate and on the mound. At the plate, Rennette constantly found a way on base. The left-hander hitter has advanced bat-to-ball abilities from a compact swing that is direct to the ball. A top-of-the-order type bat that can set up the heart of the order. On the mound, Rennette struck out ten batters through seven innings across two appearances. The right-hander operates from a simple, controlled delivery with a high leg lift and a tall/fall approach. Long, loose, easy arm action from a ¾ slot. His fastball sat 80-83 with arm-side run. He mixed in a sharp curveball that sat in the mid to upper 60s. 

Ryder Rennette (Dunlap, 2028) showed quality actions all weekend with an athletic frame that played well on both sides of the ball. At the plate, the left-handed hitter has an athletic setup and looks to drive the ball from gap to gap, with a patient approach. Defensively, the shortstop showed smooth and rangy actions. On the mound, Rennette showcased repeatability with his delivery and produced whiffs all game with his three pitch mix. He worked quickly on the bump, keeping hitters off balance and producing weak contact. His fastball ranged from 78-81 mph and was consistently placed all around the zone. His curveball had 11/5 movement and sat 65-68 mph, while his changeup was 71-73 mph and gave left-handed hitters a hard time. The two-way rising freshman should be an athlete to keep an eye on.
