Tied atop the national leaderboard with 34 RBIs, Butcher carried the Trojans on his back in the opening game of a road series against Indiana when he blasted three home runs. A senior first baseman with plenty of righthanded power, the Hoosiers tried to get him out with sliders off the outer corner, most of which were spit upon. He showed solid strike zone awareness on the weekend (drawing five walks after his three homer game), proving to be a tough out and punishing pitches that catch too much plate.

North Carolina State commit.  6 foot 1, 220-pound large frame.  Has power and looks to swing to his strength during batting practice.  Tall, slightly open setup from the right side.  Leg kick during the load with his hands working down and back.  Fluid swing with some uphill leverage. Loose hands with barrel snap through the zone.  Looks to get the barrel out and launch middle to his pull side.  Above average bat speed.  Exit velocity recorded at 97 mph.  Active feet and first base with decent agility for his size.  Average hands with a quick transfer and short arm action, throwing from a high ¾ slot.  Accurate arm with positional velocity topping at 83 mph.  Recorded a 4.22 in the 30-yard dash.

NC State commit.  Large frame with decent feet for his size, listed at 6-foot-1, 230 pounds.  Right handed hitter has whip and looseness producing high exit speeds off the barrel.  Geared to lift, there is power present.  Utilizes a leg kick while the hands load down working to his launch.  Tends to work for extension with a heavy pull emphasis in BP but spread the ball more evenly in games.  Some swing and miss present, especially on balls elevated with above average velocity.  Nimble for his size at 1B.  Footwork can get long, but is athletic through the exchange with a short arm action to a high-3/4 release and above average accuracy on a multitude of throws.  Ran a 8.09 sixty.
