Finlay Thomson: OF/RHP, (2024) Barrington, RI. 6-foot, 165-pound lanky athletic build. (67.6 mph bat speed average). (23.4 mph hand speed average). Starts in a balanced athletic stance with a quick controlled load, then uses a leg kick. Had a short uphill swing plane, quick explosive bat speed and balanced finish. Found lots of barrels with some loud contact. Gap to gap approach. Capable projectable from the outfield, he made throws to the infield at velocities up to 78 mph; has consistent next level hands, athletic feet, and a clean natural exchange. Movements laterally were athletic and he fields the ball to the side. Used a loose arm action with uninterrupted slot while showing consistent accuracy to the base. Performed well in the 60-yard dash, clocking a speedy time of 6.88.
6-foot, 150-pound athletic lean build. Above average in the box, the right-handed hitter had an exit velocity of 85 mph. (63.5 mph bat speed average). (21.9 mph hand speed average). Begins in a tall athletic stance with a smooth load, then uses a short stride. Bat speed is above average, shows a loose level swing plane and high finish. Found lots of barrels with loud contact. Gap to gap approach. Above average while in the infield, recorded position velocities up to 71 mph; shows quick feet, a twitchy exchange, and soft hands. Fields the ball out front, movements laterally were athletic. Consistent accuracy to the bases, used a high ¾ slot and a short quick arm action. Clocked a time of 7.25 in the 60-yard dash.
Exit Velocity: 85 mph
Arm Velocity: 71 mph
Sixty-Yard Dash: 7.25
50-pound. In the box, Thomson recorded an exit velocity of 82 mph. (60.7 mph bat speed average). (22.4 mph hand speed average). Starts in a balanced athletic stance with a controlled load, then uses a short stride. Had a simple flat swing plane and a good extension on his finish. Gap to gap approach. In the infield, displayed a velocity of 70 mph; has sure hands, consistent smooth feet, and a clean exchange. Showed a high ¾ slot. Clocked a 60 time of 7.08 at the event. A good looking athlete.
Exit Velocity: 82 mph
Arm Velocity: 70 mph
Sixty-Yard Dash: 7.08
5-foot-11, 136-pound, longer, thin athletic frame, loads of room for added weight gains. A right-handed hitting two-way player, at the plate, a wider setup, even feet. The lower half is under control, swing path is down to level to up. The approach is from gap to gap, line drives, had an exit velocity was clocked at 79 mph, with a ton more in there. The swing works with easy effort, uses the entire body. Defensively, worked out at third base, clean prep steps, starts higher, could work lower to baseball. The arm action is clean and longer, arm clocked at 68 mph, with more in there. Off the mound, works from the set position, quick tempo delivery, shorter stride, landing slight across his body, good lengthen. The arm action, is longer clean, working from a higher slot, fastball was clocked at 69 mph, lived in the bottom part of the zone. The breaking ball showed proper spin and shape to it, clocked at 61 mph. Like the projection off the mound.
Exit Velocity: 79 mph
Arm Velocity: 68 mph
Sixty-Yard Dash: 7.58
5-foot-10, 135-pound, longer, lean, wiry strong, room for added weight gains. A right-handed hitter, a wider setup, starts slightly closed off. The hands are relaxed at shoulder height, more of a flat setup. The swing is level through the zone, hands are inside the baseball, barrel is in the zone a long time, middle of the field approach. Squared up the baseball, one line drive after another. The exit velocity was clocked at 76 mph, ran a 7.32 sixty-yard dash. Defensively, moves well at third base, glove is soft, fielding out front. Moves well to glove side, clean starts on double play balls. The arm acton is clean and smooth, works from a 3/4 slot, has room for added strength. Off the mound, works from set position, builds momentum down the mound. The arm action is super clean and free, showing arm side run and sink. The fastball touched 67 mph and mixed in a breaking ball at 60 mph. Lots of projection with this one.
Exit Velocity: 76 mph
Arm Velocity: 65 mph
Sixty-Yard Dash: 7.32
