Wilke, only a freshman, featured one of the highest offensive ceilings for the Statesmen and should be one to follow moving forward. The long-levered, 6-foot-3, 175-pound, right-handed hitter has plenty of room for continued physical development and stood out throughout his round of BP. It's an easy, loose swing with minimal effort and all kinds of present whip through the zone. Wilke consistently looked to lift the baseball and he peaked at 96.4 mph off the bat with a max distance of 358’. Behind the plate he played clean and easy out of the crouch with a loose arm that topped at 82 mph. He also flashed a low pop time of 1.92.

Position Profile: C/3B Body: 6-2, 160-pounds. Long, athletic build with significant room for strength gains Hit: RHH. Tall, slightly open setup with rhythm in the hands. Hands flow well into the load and gets to a coiled position in the back hip. Tends to get too forward at launch causing some push in the upper half. Tons of upside in the bat Power: 91 max exit velocity, averaged 88 mph. 332' max distance. Arm: RH. C-79 mph. Short, loose arm action - one of the best C arms at the event Defense: 1.88-1.94 pop times. Legit catch & throws skills with fast exchange and one of the best C arms at the event. Flexible hips when receiving allows him to steal the bottom of the zone strike. Soft, quiet hands. One of the best defensive C at the event. Run: 7.42 runner in the 60.
