Underclass Showcase: Infield Analysis


By: Illinois Scouting Staff

On Sunday, Oct. 17, the PBR Illinois staff returned to The MAX Sports Complex to host the fall’s Underclass Showcase. This annual event serves as an opportunity for prospects in the state’s 2024-25 classes to display their talents in front of our scouting staff prior to the start of the off-season. There were nearly 60 prospects who made the trip to The MAX on Sunday to participate in a pro-style workout in front of our evaluators.

Shortly after the event’s conclusion, our staff published a multitude of post-event content pieces relating to what we saw on the day. To find those, click HERE.

Now we’ll put the finishing touches on this event by rolling out our individual position-by-position analysis from this event. We started with the catching group and followed it up with the outfielders. Now, we’ll finish up the position players by rolling out the infielders. Before we do so, here are a few names that stood out:

+ Physically, INF David Cox (Nazareth Academy, 2024) stands out instantly, listed at 6-foot-3, 190 pounds. Inside the right-handed batter’s box, Cox swats line-drives to all fields, naturally translating to above-average exit speed marks (91.9 mph high). His swings is simple, which allows him to repeat it well; starting from a balanced setup that leads into a small leg kick stride, and his loose hands and forearms generate some extension through impact, though he finishes his swing while maintaining his balance well. On the infield, Cox profiles as a corner type, and he has the arm strength to hold his own at third base, measured at 81 mph at this event.

+ INF/C/RHP Enzo Infelise (Providence Catholic, 2025) is another freshman with an advanced skill-set that’s continuously impressed our staff each time we’ve seen him. He turned in one of the day’s most eye-opening rounds of BP, elevating and attacking the baseball with a controlled intent. Infelise posted well above-average rates in peak batted distance (341 ft.) and average distance (289 ft.), including one of the day’s hardest hit balls (90.9 mph) and an impressive average exit velocity (86.1 mph), too. Defensively, behind the plate, he showed advanced actions with soft hands and quick exchanges to release. His arm played strong from the crouch and accurate to his target, topping at 74 mph with a low pop time of 2.00 seconds. He also showed instincts and rhythm on the infield with soft hands to pair. Later on in his day, Infelise jumped on the mound and sat at 78-79 mph with his fastball. He’s a multi-positional prospect with a potent right-handed bat to follow in the state’s 2025 class.

+ SS Trey Schilling (Lincoln Community, 2024) has an athletic 5-foot-10, 165-pound build, and he brings with him an advanced skill set to the ballpark. Offensively, Schilling’s right-handed swing works with above-average hand speed that is short, level, and direct to the zone. Off the barrel, Schilling works gap-to-gap and handles the barrel well. His athleticism fits a middle-infield profile, with active feet that he uses to cover ground with fluidly. His arm action is short and quick, and the rhythm he defends with allows him to exchange the ball quickly and efficiently, unleashing carry throws across the infield, reaching an 84 mph high on Sunday.

+ OF/INF Luke Jurack (Hinsdale Central, 2024) is well-proportioned, athletic prospect who recorded one of the pound-for-pound best performances at the Underclass Showcase. Jurack passes every eye test: a strong, broad stature that fills out the jersey, sub-6.90 speed, with barrel accuracy from the right-handed batter’s box. Offensively, Jurack utilizes the entire field with a swing that he naturally repeats, demonstrating a knack for hitting. On defense, he continued to impress athletically, playing with a bounce from the outfield, ranging around smoothly. His all-around profile has made him one of the state’s top sophomores already, ranked inside the top-40.
