Futures Preview (6/4/16)
Teel is a 2020 grad with a lanky wiry frame at 5-foot-10 145-pounds. Although being one of the youngest participants at the event, Teel had some of the top statistics. Offensively- Teel uses a small leg kick and an exceptionally fluid hand load before exploding his hips and hands through the zone. One of the more balanced swings from the event, Teel's Exit Velocity was 85. Fielding- Teel showed his versatility with soft hands and easy exchanges at shortstop, with throws that topped out at 83 across the field. Catching- Teel had the best pop time of the event at a 1.97, throwing 77 MPH down to second base. Pitching- Teel sat at 77-82 MPH on the mound and topped out at 83 MPH. Lightning quick arm that is free and loose, Teel was one of the most projectable players at the event even though he is still in eighth grade.
