Caden Balser: 3B/RHP, (2026) Strongsville, OH. 6-foot-2, 170-pound. (67.8 mph bat speed average). (23.0 mph hand speed average). Begins in a balanced strong stance with a controlled load, then uses a small leg kick. Bat speed was efficient, displayed a loose level swing plane and balanced finish. Solid while in the infield, made throws at velocities up to 72 mph; had sure hands, a natural exchange, and consistent footwork. Laterally, movements were athletic and fielded the ball out front. Had a quick arm action and a high ¾ slot. Recorded a 60 time of 8.41 at the event. On the mound, showed consistent arm speed, also used a high ¾ arm angle with a clean arm action. Drop-and-drive type pitcher who uses easy effort. Had slight running action. (Max spin 1888; Avg 1838). His 11/5 curveball had some action. (Max spin 1705; Avg 1667).
