Sam Malec 2021 RHP - Great Lakes Lumberjacks 2021
Long, unique low-¾ arm action. Malec hides the ball well and his fastball jumps on batters. Sat 88-89 topping out at 92 mph in the 5th inning. He complimented his fastball with a nasty 10-4 slider with a lot of movement. Malec also successfully used his 83-84 mph changeup that has sink to the arm side. Legit 3 pitch mix. Minnesota commit.

Sam Wragge, RHP/INF, 2021 - Nebraska Prospects Scout 2021
Good frame and more in the arm has he continues to add strength. Went right at hitters with a short arm action and a heavy ball. Fastball was 83-85, topping at 86mph. Good feel and intent for his offspeed: 74-75mph 11/5 curveball that had a smaller shape, but broke late in the zone. Also, a 75-76 mph change up. Projectable arm. Uncommitted.

Jackson Wentworth 2021 RHP - IA Sticks Sorge
Big frame. Quick arm that throws downhill. Legit 3 pitch mix. Fastball sat 90-91 with some cut. He showed great feel for the 11/5 73-74 mph sharp curveball. He also added an 82-83mph changeup that showed fade and sink. Swung the bat well too with a double off the wall and a single. Kansas State commit.
