Stocky, 5-foot-8, 175-pounder. Best work was done in the batter's box where he showed a deeper backshift load with connected hands as he coiled into the backside and uncoiled with rotational strength. Exits reached 100-plus, went north-of 95 3x. 7.07 run time is a solid average time. Has showcased in the infield, outfield, and at catcher for us; showed an 81 OF arm and 77 IF arm at this event.

Wiry look at 6-foot-1, 170-pounds. Tall lift into a shorter, rotational stride. Loose mover with a loose arm stroke that gets deep and causes some arm-side misses. Carrying trait is the ability to spin the baseball, shows two distinct breaking ball shapes, both in the low-to-mid 70s for 2500+ spin. Slider plays with shorter, flat sweep, while the curveball features similiar sweep and 5" more depth on average. Pitched at 85-87.4 with a running fastball. Serviceable change at 75-77. Reliver look with spin as the calling card.

Isaac Richardson is a 2027 C/3B from Franklin Central (IN) with a compact 5-foot-7, 170-pound frame and a physical presence at the plate. Offensively, Richardson hits from a wider stance with a toe-tap stride and an upward barrel turn that creates lift. He flashes strength in his swing with a 95 mph max exit velocity and 328’ peak distance, showing potential to impact the baseball with authority. Defensively, he’s a developing receiver behind the plate with 2.31–2.37 pop times and a 71 mph arm. Also capable at third base, Richardson brings some versatility, though continued development in his defensive skill set and arm strength will help
