Ranked No. 24 in Ohio's 2029 class. 5-foot-9, 160-pound frame. Posted a 7.66 laser-timed 60. At the plate, produced a projectable 85 mph exit velocity. On the mound, Vecchio worked a four-pitch mix — fastball sat a well above-average 83-86, topped at 86, velocity already ahead of the class, alongside a curveball at 72-72 mph, a slider at 62-72 mph, and a changeup at 75-75 mph.

5-foot-8, 155-pound left-handed hitter and pitcher. Loose, balanced swing with clean direction and consistent contact (T85 EV). Works line to line with natural rhythm. On the mound, FB sat 76–80 (T81) with above-average ride (15.7" IVB) and feel for spin. Mixed in multiple breaking pitches, including a CH at 66–70 with depth. Talented two-way prospect with feel and polish well ahead of his class.
