8/22/22

After a productive spring for the 5A runner-ups INF Hayden Bates (Festus, 2024) debuts inside the top-80, especially after a productive showing at the St. Louis Top Prospect Games. At 6-foot, 205-pounds, Bates repeated quality contact from a heavy right-handed barrel at that event, showing well in-game, too.

6/27/22

3B Hayden Bates (Festus, 2024) helped lead the Tigers to the 5A state playoffs and showed advanced bat strength in BP at Tuesday’s workout. Bates, who stands at 6-foot, 205-pounds, backspun baseballs with intent to the pull-side, averaging 87.5 mph off the barrel. He reached a 92.5 mph high and translated his juice to the gameplay portion by smacking a loud triple. Bates ran a 7.13 60-yard dash, an impressive mark given his size and strength.
