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. Starting today, we will be spotlighting several uncommitted prospects to help them get the exposure they need to play at the next level.

We have known about INF Kobe Braddock (River Ridge, 2020) for quite some time, watching him mature from a 5-foot-11 sophomore to a now 6-foot-2 senior, and developing strength throughout his frame. An athletic prospect, Braddock has really come into his own at the plate and at the hot corner. He has added strength to his frame and with that has come the ability to drive the ball with a line drive approach. Defensively, he has always been impressive with sure hands and clean footwork. His growth and maturity, coupled with his athleticism, has added range to his game at third.
