New Episode LIVE now! At The Yard Podcast

The Uncommitted Spotlight Series continues as we have started the '24 CIF High School baseball season Prep Baseball California is now highlighting some of the top uncommitted class of '25 athletes. The players featured are pulled directly from our '25 Class Rankings. These JR year players are ones that college coaches and fans should be keeping their eyes on over the coming months.

We invite you to get to know them through the eyes of our Prep Baseball California staff of scouts and the data-backed numbers collected at our events with our partnered companies. TrackMan, Blast Motion, Swift Performance, and Visual Edge provide comparable data to project and evaluate players. All of these systems come together to give a clear picture at what colleges will get when a players steps onto their campus.

Today, we put the spotlight on a SoCal '25 RHP Toby Kwon out of Servite High School. With a good frame at 6'3 185 lbs, a relatively low effort delivery featuring a quick arm with feel for the strike zone you can picture Kwon continuing on to start at the next level. He has present solid stuff headlined by a 85-86 MPH which he can throw for strikes to both sides of the plate. Adds in a pair of interesting breaking balls with his 72-73 MPH CB and a 74-76 MPH SLD which he shows feel to throw both for strikes. With room to continue adding strength to his frame, increase his FB velocity, the life on his breaking balls and polish the overall package, Kwon should be a strong follow for college coaches this spring as he navigates the difficult Trinity League schedule with Servite and into the summer travel baseball circuit.
