OF Peyton Kight (Jackson, 2025; Bradley signee) put together an impressive round of BP and continues to stand out physically with a strong, athletic 6-foot-5, 210-pound frame. Kight hits with controlled rhythm and quick, strong hands, creating easy whip through the zone. He showed comfort working gap-to-gap with authority, peaking at 102 mph off the bat and averaging 92 mph throughout his round. A high-level athlete for his size, Kight also ran a 6.91 60-yard dash and unleashed a 95 mph bullet from the outfield, rounding out an impressive showing on both sides of the ball.

OF/RHP Peyton Kight (Jackson) looks the part of an upside prospect in Missouri’s 2025 class. Kight, who stands at a highly projectable 6-foot-4, 180-pounds, whipped balls off his barrel to the pull-side throughout BP from a loose right-handed swing. The ease in which he worked coupled with the extension Kight created through the zone suggests a relatively intriguing power profile should he continue to tack on strength over the years. Kight showed a similarly loose presence in the outfield, working through the baseball and confidently covering ground. A former quarterback, Kight left this event a winner in our scouts’ eyes.
