Mitacek is an intriguing bat to follow as he enters his senior year. Standing at an athletic 6-foot-2, 170-pound frame, the right-handed hitter features a loose right-handed swing with whip through the zone to create bat speed. Spent a majority of the weekend playing third base, showing above average arm-strength and quality glove actions.

Mitacek is a 6-foot-2,170-pound athlete with some fill left in his frame. Mitacek gets into a strong hitting position and has a direct path through the ball barrelling multiple line drives through gaps which helped him register a max EV 89.7 mph. Behind the plate, he has a quick transfer and quick feet and had the second best pop time of the day at 2.01. He then showcased his versatility by showing well in the infield with soft hands and a strong and accurate arm maxing out at 85 mph across the infield.

Mitacek is a sophomore to keep an eye on. Standing at a thin 6-foot-1, 157 pounds, he recorded pop times in the 2.13-2-27 range from behind the dish, with clean funneling to the target. In the box, Mitacek sets up tall and open, and he stays stacked throughout his move with a spinning posture and a flat path. He offered the best line-drive repeatability throughout the day, measuring an 87 mph max exit speed that landed on the barrel with one of the day’s highest frequencies. And, given his stature, he can greatly improve his batted-ball profile by adding strength over the coming years.
