RHP/OF Ivan Reid (Life Prep Academy, 2026) was an impressive two-way prospect from Sunday’s look. A well-rounded athlete, Reid stood out across the board - running a 6.87 60, with a 92 mph arm from the outfield, and a 93 mph exit velocity at the plate. However, it was on the mound where the right-hander shined brightest. His arm strength translated seamlessly, as he ran his fastball up to 88 mph, sitting 85–87 mph, flashing ride through the top of the zone. Off that, he spun a 73–76 mph curveball with downer spin that approached 2,500 RPM, giving it the potential to become a true out pitch. He also effectively killed spin on a 77–78 mph splitter to round out an intriguing arsenal and making him a name to keep an eye on this spring.
