Team Carolina Preview: Outfielders

 

 

Stewart Evans OF / Scotland, NC / 2021 Rankings  StateRank: 4 / POS: 1 OverallRank: 208 / POS: 34 Evans is a physical presence from the right side of the box.  Jumping on the scene at the 2018 NC Underclass Games, Evans turned heads with his BP and continued to catch eyes as the swing translated into the game play.  This summer Evans has produced in big way on the big stage.  In several trips to LakePoint with his 5 Star NC club, Evans has impressed with his easy power and ball to bat skills.

 

 

Archie Dean Herring OF / SS / Westchester Country Day, NC / 2021 Rankings  StateRank: 14 / POS: 2 OverallRank: 393 / POS: 57 Who will run  the fastest 60 at the PBR Future Games... We won't know the answer but Team Carolina has an entry that could capture the title in Herring.  At the NC Underclass Games in 2018, Herring posted a 6.52 on the laser timer.  Earlier this summer at the 5 Star NC organizational workout day, Herring lowered his top time to 6.45. Herring is not just a runner though... The swing has continued to improve and there is some raw power present.  Defensively, the speed plays and the arm has shown a positional velocity of 87 mph.

 

 

John Newton OF / 3B / Cuthbertson , NC / 2021 Rankings  StateRank: 55 / POS: 9 At 6-foot, 175 pounds, Newton has been very consistent throughout the spring and summer season, continually finding the barrel against high end pitching and showing an ability to drive the ball into the gaps.  There is not a tool that stands out above another, but in the same fashion, there is not a tool lagging behind the others.  Newton has posted an exit velocity of 96 mph off the barrel, with a positional velocity of 91 from the outfield.

 

 

Lukas Schramm OF / C / Apex , NC / 2022 Rankings  StateRank: 9 / POS: 4 Physical with strength and qucikness, Schramm has posted an exit velocity up to 86 mph while running a 6.92 sixty.  A right handed hitter, there is bat speed and barrel awareness with the ball jumping at contact.  One of the few 2022 players that will be in attendance on the week, the tools are present, but it is the ceiling that may be the most intriguing side to his game.
