One of the top uncommitted catchers in the state, Nomar Torres (L.D. Bell, 2026) has turned heads with standout performances this fall and preseason. Super young for his grade yet already standing at 5’11” and 180 pounds, he shows clear physical upside. Offensively, Torres recorded a 97.8 mph max exit velocity, hinting at impressive power potential. Behind the plate, his 1.92 pop time and advanced receiving skills point to the makings of an elite defender, while his above-average hands also translate well to the infield. As he continues to grow into his frame, expect Torres to cement himself as a premier catching prospect in the 2026 class.
