Gavin Rieder: 1B/RHP, (2026) Eastlake North, OH. 6-foot-2, 192-pound projectable build. (61.7 mph bat speed average). (16.7 mph hand speed average). Begins in a wide strong stance with a quick handsy load, then uses a small leg kick. Bat speed is quick explosive, uses a short simple swing plane and balanced finish. Was able to create some loud contact and found some barrels. Aggressive gap to gap approach. Confident while in the infield, made throws at velocities up to 64 mph; shows a fluid exchange, quick feet, and consistent hands. Fields the ball out front, movements laterally were athletic. Consistent accuracy to the bag, used a high ¾ slot and a longer arm action. Capable projectable on the mound, used a ¾ arm angle and a moderate arm action while showing good arm speed. Drop-and-drive type pitcher and uses easy effort. Has a consistent balance point with even shoulders. Lands square with upright finish. (Max spin 1705; Avg 1565).
