Power / Speed Score
A simple calculation that divides the athlete’s Exit Velocity Max by the athlete’s 60 Yard Dash time for the given event year. For example, 98 MPH / 7.00s = 14.00.
The box score (0-2 with 2 RBI's) didn't indicate the impact that Hatchett had in the Skippers Saturday matchup against Harrison Central (MS). The uncommitted sophomore had "team first" at-bats, in critical points early in the game, before Mandeville took a commanding lead. Hatchett uses loose and rhythmic hands at the plate and gets into a strong hitting position, before delivering a whippy barrel through the zone. He's also a quality defender on the infield as well.

Brody Hatchett, Mandeville (LA), 2026 Positional Profile: SS/2B Body: 5-7, 155-pounds. Athletic. Hit: RHH. Upright and balanced stance with hands at shoulder height, uses a simple load and stride. Gains ground forward during load and hits off front foot some, steeper path down to contact with uphill extension and a two-handed finish, stays balanced in a taller finish, works mostly to the pull-side gap, hit a double off the LCF wall in game. Power: 88 max exit velocity, averaged 83.4 mph. 319' max distance. Arm: RH. INF-77 mph. Short arm action, high 3/4 release. Defense: Average hands and actions, received the ball clean and out front, looked best on the backhand play receiving the ball clean with one hand, likely profiles as a 2B. ATH: 7.37 runner in the 60. 1.81 and 4.12 in the 10 and 30 yard splits.
