Southisene

Prep Baseball All-American Game: Southisene continues to exude some of the best bat-to-ball skills in the entire 2024 class. Eye-level handset with a quiet pre-pitch load and short leg trigger, the Tennessee commit fires present bat speed with excellent plate coverage against entire pitch mixes. High-level chance to hit for average. Will use the entire field consistently with likely max gap power but plays way up due to foot speed and instincts. Glove is likely to stick long term in the middle-infield with advanced positioning and plus lateral range. Southisene features vacuum like hands and will get the most out of his arm with accuracy from multiple angles without having top-tier arm strength.
