Brayden Yasuzawa C / 2B / Cherry Creek, CO / 2024

A defensive first catcher who does a solid job handling the pitching staff. Works well behind the plate, with solid block and receive skills. He looks for outs on the bases with runners on and is accurate with his throws. Offensively, he has a strong, compact swing with an aggressive approach—a tough kid with a team-first mentality.

Connor Larkin 1B / LHP / Cherry Creek, CO / 2025

A young player who shows an advanced gap-to-gap approach in the box and will go with the pitch. Like his calm demeanor on the field, he does not seem to get sped up playing the game. Athleticism should play in a corner outfield spot also.

Ben Steele LHP / 1B / Cherry Creek , CO / 2023

23’ @bsteele2112 2 knocks and 2 RBI today. Physical LH bat with present strength in the body. @PBR_Uncommitted pic.twitter.com/PKYPdXJyvO

Sean Goldy SS / OF / Cherry Creek, CO / 2025

A high motor shortstop with athleticism. He should also be able to play centerfield and second base at the next level. Aggressive at the plate right now and needs to play to his skill set. Get the ball in play and let his athleticism play from there. He can create havoc on the bases with his instinct and speed. Arm strength plays.

Mason Scott 3B / RHP / Cherry Creek, CO / 2025

Played second base when we saw him. Interesting player with an athletic frame that should continue to fill out. Athleticism should allow him to play multiple positions at the next level. Competitive at bats with some whip to the barrel.
