Largely under the national radar, 6-foot-1, 195-pound DiMeo did it all at this year’s ECP. An average runner (6.85 sixty) with sure hands on the dirt, the middle infielder also showed a near average arm in I/O. At the plate the Boston College recruit made noise off the barrel throughout the showcase, finishing 4-for-7 with a pair of walks and a 96 mph EV double.
