Saturday marked the 1st annual New York All-Star Games, held at beautiful Shuttleworth Park in Amsterdam, NY. Nearly 70 prospects took the field in front of 14 college coaches, including 11 division one schools. The talent on hand was impressive; 10 players ran under a 7.0 second 60-yard dash, 13 prospects registered 80 mph or better during the defense evaluations, 24 players went north of 85 mph on their exit-velocity, and 17 pitchers dialed up fastballs 80 mph or higher. Let's take a look at a few players that really stood-out, in a talent filled crowd.

2018 RHP Erubiel Candelario (Kipp College Prep HS) entered his first PBR showcase event as a highly touted prospect - and Saturday he did not disappoint.
