OF/INF/RHP Levi Watts (Appleton North, 2025) is an intriguing uncommitted prospect to follow in the state. Built at an athletic 5-foot-9 168 pounds Watts features an ultra-simple swing from the right-side that showed the ability to spray line drives all over the field and he averaged an exit velocity of 83.2 mph. During his infield and outfield defensive round, Watts showcased athletic actions, coupling it with a strong arm (83 mph INF velocity and 87 mph OF velocity). Later on in the day, Watts hopped on the bump and put together a clean overall ‘pen. Watts’ fastball sat in the low-80s with above average carry through the zone, roughly 16” of vertical break. He also showed feel for a short curveball in the low-70s that he was able to throw low in the zone.
