Braydon
Tayloe

6-foot-3, 180-pound frame, committed to Bryant & Stratton. At the plate, Tayloe works from an open setup and a tall, leveraged stance, generating an 89 mph exit velocity through an uphill, lift-driven path. Defensively, the first baseman posted 87 mph across the infield with throws that carry and hold their line, pairing that with a clean, instant transfer and deliberate, mechanical footwork. On the mound, Tayloe worked a four-pitch mix — fastball at 83-84, topped at 85, showing natural cut on the four-seam and riding carry at the top of the zone; slider at 70-73 mph; cutter at 73-74 mph; and a splitter ranging 72-76 mph with hard, late splitter tumble under barrels. He operates as an early-contact attacker, working efficiently in counts, and brought the same heartbeat in every situation.
