6-foot-3, 195-pound right-handed hitting middle infielder. The body has grown and is starting to fill out. Ran a 4.5 down the line on his dig to first base. The glove and approach in the infield is done appropriately. The hands work well and he has a feel for the game. Threw 87 mph across the diamond with ease. May want to try pitching, just a thought, as the arm works well. The bat has a tee exit velocity of 85 mph. The setup is even in base, front foot steps into the ball. The path is quick and clean to contact. Uses a 1-handed finish after contact.

6-foot-1, 170-pound right-handed hitting middle infielder. Continues to improve each time we see him, threw 77 mph across the diamond. The feet work well through and to the ball. The arm is clean and quick. The foot speed is improving and he shows signs of getting physically stronger. The bat has a tee exit velocity of 79 mph. The setup is even with his feet, front foot slightly open to start. The path is clean, small uphill plane to it. The hands work freely and the bottom half of the swing is under control throughout. The skill set is there, continuing to getting stronger is the key for the development.

5-foot-10, 150-pound right-handed hitting infielders, and one of my favorite defenders in his class. Still has room to improve, don't get me wrong but I like his game and how its trending. Threw 79 mph across the infield out of a clean arm path, carry and solid accuracy. The glove is soft and he moves well to and through the ball. Handles the pivot and handles the slow roller play. Tee exit velocity of 80 mph as he needs to continue to develop himself physically. Starts with his feet close, front foot slightly open to start. The front foot closes down and glides into the ball as the ball approaches. The hands are clean to the ball and the bat path is simple. The head and eyes stay on the ball when he hits. Ran a 4.6 down the line as that will have to improve as he matures but I wouldn’t be against him. Solid and very good prospect to follow.

5-foot-10, 150-pound right-handed shortstop, who showed very well for himself. The glove is advanced and the footwork to and through the ball is done very well. The hands are soft and the arm work nicely. Threw 76 mph across the diamond with ease. Handles the pivot and makes all the routine plays. Ran a 4.8 down the line on his dig but that will clean right up as he physically matures. The bat has a tee exit velocity of 83 mph at this juncture. Hits with an open start and closes down the feet as the ball approaches. The hands work and the swing is simple, physical strength is needed to aid this young man’s development. Excellent looking 2020 infield prospect, one of the better ones I’ve seen thus far.

5-foot-9, 140-pound, thin athletic frame. A fast twitch athlete, actions and movements are smooth. Defensively, is above average for his age. The feet and hands work well together, works from the ground up, hands are soft and fields the baseball out front. The arm action is short, super clean and works out of a natural ¾ slot. The arm was clocked at 73 mph, with a ton more in there, throws had flight and carry to them. Double play feeds are on time, are smooth and have rhythm to them. Offensively, hits from the right side, stance is open gets back to even on the stride. The hands are loose and work freely through the zone. The swing path is level to up, finishes with one hand. The approach is middle of the field, sprays it all over the place. The barrel stays in the zone for a long time, has whip and life out front. Off the mound, this right-hander has a repeatable delivery, has timing and tempo to it. The arm action is clean, works out of a natural ¾ slot, fastball was clocked at 74 mph, located down in the zone. The breaking ball has big break to it, clocked at 62 mph, needs to be thrown harder. The changeup comes out of the same slot, clocked at 67 mph, it’s above average pitch. Times to the plate need to be quicker, recorded at 1.75. Look for the fastball to make a solid jump, good looking young player, love the actions defensively.
6-foot-3, 195-pound right-handed hitting middle infielder. The frame continues to grow as he is taller and leaner than ever. Ran a 4.69 home to first at the event. The glove and actions at shortstop are solid as he moves well through the ball. Threw 86 mph across the diamond with ease. The bat has a tee exit velocity of 88 mph. The setup is even in base, bottom half is under control throughout. The swing has a bit of length to it, clean hands throughout. Good looking player and when he gets stronger, lookout. Might be worth taking a look at on the bump.
