A breakout performer at the Future Games in 2019, Parker has a long, projectable frame at 6-foot-4, 185 pounds. He increased his stock yet again at the Area Code Games, where he tossed three innings over two appearances, allowing a run on a hit and two walks while striking out six—and the run and hit allowed were questionable, as a ball down the line that seemed clearly foul was ruled fair. Nonetheless, things got quiet during his first appearance, as scouts zeroed in on his stuff. With a loose, easy delivery, he easily tossed a lively fastball at 91-94 and then snapped off some sliders with high spin and hard sweep at 77-80.

7.31.19 With an athletic 6-foot-3, 180-pound frame, Parker has a lot to project on. Athleticism showed out well in defensive work, quick reactions, and flashed good arm strength on throws across the diamond. Showed raw tools at the plate that will be fun to watch as he continues to grow.
