In addition to Butterworth, NC State made another wise portal acquisition with grad student Garrett Pennington. The 6-foot, 225-pound first baseman has a chance to hear his name called late in this year’s draft based on his 2024 season performance to date. He’s a hit machine who consistently churns out quality at-bats. He stayed hot collecting five hits in nine at-bats during the first two games of the series and for the season has posted a .365/.443/.660 slash with 17 doubles and 10 home runs.
Pennington is a 6-foot 195-pound right-handed hitting outfielder in Kansas’ 2019 class. He ran a 7.44 60 and has a 90 mph exit velocity. At the plate, starts with open stance, raises bat of shoulder as he strides, strides slightly closed at times, level bat path, quick bat speed, strong hands generate bat whip, gap to gap approach, occasional pull power. In the outfield, 83 mph positional velocity, over the top release, quick glove to hand transfer, momentum after the catch, plays behind and through the ball.
