Unsigned Junior Spotlight: UTIL Mason Davis
May 5, 2020
Our goal at Prep Baseball Report is to promote high school players, and give them the exposure they need to be able to play at the next level. With the 2020 high school season in limbo, we want to continue to be able to promote players, even when baseball is not being played. Over the last two months, we have been spotlighting several uncommitted seniors to help them get the exposure they need to play at the next level in 2021. This month, we will move on to uncommitted 2021's who will be heading into their senior summer.
Next up is uncommitted UTIL Mason Davis (St. John's Country Day). Davis is an athletic two-way prospect who can play almost every position on the field. 83-84 mph on the mound. 85 mph from the outfield. 84 mph from the infield. Pop times of 1.97-2.02. Davis made our Third Team Preseason All-State this winter. He ranks No. 212 in the PBR Florida Class of 2021.
