Braden Mann, Cathedral (IN), 2026
Positional Profile: 2B/RHP
Body: 5-11, 170-pounds. Projectable, lean build.
Delivery: Up-tempo delivery, high intent. Big leg kick that crosses the body coiling the weight into the back hip, balance point remains comfortable. Stride gets efficient distance down the mound. Tilt and topple shoulders down the slope that start compact but open up to get abv/avg separation. Consistently lands square. Athletic mover on the mound, stays compact and comfortable through the end of delivery, does not fly open.
Arm Action: RH. Loose, fast arm action from an over the top slot. Shoulder separation helps hide the ball upon delivery.
FB: T79, 76-79 mph. Straight FB with some run. T2200, 1989 average rpm.
SL: 66-67 mph. Efficient movement, plays more as a slurve than straight CB. T2100, 2001 average rpm.
CH: 69-73 mph. Run over ride, slight difference in IVB will help tunnel with FB. T1322, 1260 average rpm.
ATH: 7.59 runner in the 60.

Braden Mann, Cathedral (IN), 2026
Positional Profile: 2B/RHP
Body: 5-11, 170-pounds. Projectable, lean build.
Hit: RHH. Balanced stance with hands starting slightly back, narrow feet. Very small load with a easy, repeatable hover stride. Upper half stays compact and is very athletic. Shoulders do not get much separation but gain leverage as they tilt forward during stride. High intent swing with comfortable weight balance throughout swing. Upper half does majority of the work in swing, shows some rotational ability. With implementation of lower half separation power could come in bunches. 60.7 mph bat speed with 14 G's of rotational acceleration.
Power: 74 max exit velocity, averaged 72.0 mph. 247' max distance.
Arm: RH. INF-75 mph. Long, loose arm ation from an over the top slot. Good throwing mechanics. Can drop down when needed.
Defense: Very athletic, swift moveer in the infield with an obvious emphasis on lower half mechanics. Very confident with the glove and abv/avg ball to hand skills.
ATH: 7.59 runner in the 60.
