THE BATS
+ 2016, 3B, Joey Machuga (Canfield) displayed a balanced approach from the right side with the ability to hit to all fields with power. He does a good job utilizing his lower half as he starts from a narrow stance and utilizes a short stride. His hands are quick to the ball, and he reached a top exit velocity of 85 mph off the tee.
THE ARMS
+ 2106, RHP, Colten Wilber (Jefferson Area) showed considerable strides since his first appearance at the Underclass Games in July of 2013. Now, standing at 6-foot-1, 162-pounds, Wilber showed a similar high leg kicked while maintaining good direction with his lower half. His fastball sat at 84-85 mph with run. His breaking ball had 10/4 break at 74-76 mph while his changeup is thrown with good arm speed at 77-78 mph showing late arm-side sink.
