Jeffers is a compact and athletic righty who showed some intriguing projection at Saturday’s showcase. He worked 79-81 mph (T81.3 mph) with roughly 19” of vertical break on his fastball, showcasing serious feel to hit spots. Though he has a curveball and changeup, the breaker is the true out-pitch. He worked 70-71 mph with the curveball with 12/6 break, showing late break out of the same tunnel as the fastball. Jeffers’ changeup was 71-74 mph with late tailing action. As a position player, the sophomore uses his lower half well, generating bat speed to drive the ball to both gaps. He keeps his hands relaxed and gets good separation while staying grounded and shows quality barrel control spraying line drives through all over the field. Jeffers is a quick mover in the infield with smooth actions and a good clock. His 81 mph velocity across the infield with carry and accuracy indicate him to be a reliable defender in the infield.
