7/25/24
INF Brennan McLaughlin (Platte County, 2026) was another name for Team Missouri that showed well in all areas of his workout. He showed easy pull-side power from a loose, athletic right-handed swing that produced easy juice into the left-center gap. McLaughlin’s furthest ball nearly left the yard, banging off the left field wall at 369 feet, and his firmest ball jumped off his barrel at 94.9 mph. He also ran a 6.92 60 and was 86 mph across the infield at peak.

INF/RHP Brennan McLaughlin (Platte County, 2026) is a 6-foot-2, 175-pound sophomore that looked the part on both sides of the ball on Sunday. At the plate, McLaughlin swings a loose, free-flowing right-handed barrel that sprayed line drives gap-to-gap throughout his round of BP. With power to come as he adds strength to his frame, McLaughlin produced a peak exit velocity of 94.1 mph in this look. His arm played strong across the diamond peaking at 87 mph on his firmest bullet. To wrap up the day, McLaughlin hopped on the mound and pitched in the low-to-mid 80’s with a slider/changeup mix to pair.

One of the few 2026 prospects in attendance, INF/C Brennan McLaughlin (Platte County) provided our staff with a quality look at this event. The 6-foot, 161-pound freshman recorded the day’s hardest hit ball at 93 mph, and he consistently generated quality contact to left field from a short, athletic right-handed swing.
