O'Toole

MIF/RHP Liam O’Toole (Plymouth, 2027) wiry 5-foot-10.1, 158.7 pounds, possesses a frame that will comfortably continue to add strength. Switch-hitter, consistently short, downhill, and compact path from both sides of the plate, allowing him to repeatedly impact the baseball to all fields. He generated a max EV of 95 mph and an average EV of 84.6 mph, driven by 71.7 mph average bat speed and a projectable base of 11.0 g of rotational acceleration. He showcased quality athleticism with a 6.77 in the 60-yard dash, and throws across the infield were measured at 82 mph. On the mound, the right-hander operates out of a stretch-only delivery, moving efficiently down the slope with a loose and clean arm action. His fastball sat 80-84 T85 mph with 15.7 inches of average induced vertical break, while his curveball played at 70-72 mph and showed a changeup at 77-78 with heavy fading action, with 19.7 inches of horizontal movement.

OF/RHP Liam O’Toole (Plymouth, 2027) is a smooth and explosive athlete and had a very good day on the mound and with the bat. He started his day by running the best 60 yard dash time of the event at 6.75 seconds. On the mound, the right-hander used a short arm path and an extremely effortless delivery and drove two-different fastballs to spots in the zone up to 81 mph. He threw a short and quick lateral breaking cutter off the fastball and a two-plane breaking curveball in and out of the zone. His change-up was thrown with fastball intent and has the makings of an effective out-pitch weapon to both left-handed and right-handed hitters. With the bat, the junior utility player was among the top performers of the day with registering a max exit velocity of 88.7 mph. His swing was repeatable and balanced with a short hand and bat path through the baseball. Overall, O’Toole remains a name to monitor as we look ahead to the winter showcase season.
