Brayden
Fraasman

Ridiculous offensive tools. Top bat speed guy for Team Ohio at 85mph w/near 40gs of rotational acceleration and top EV of 98mph. Also squared up the ball regularly in BP, showing consistent backspin to the middle of the field. Also showed well behind the dish, where the athleticism translates and quick feet/transfer make arm play up. The ceiling here is through the roof.
