TOP UNCOMMITTED RIGHT-HANDED PITCHERS
 |
Jace Middleton RHP / OF / Olentangy, OH / 2021Report: One of the top overall prospects in the class, with legit two-way potential at the D1 level. Obvious projection on the mound with a physical, 6-foot-4 frame. Long lever type that doesn’t have a ton of effort to delivery. Arm works well through a high-¾ slot. Quality three pitch mix lead by the 84-87 mph fastball, touching 89 mph. Breaking ball shows late dive on an 11/5 plane sitting 70-72 mph. The offering has present swing and miss to it. As impressive as the breaker was the changeup may have been better. The pitch has heavy arm side action at 76-77 mph. Starter type with the changeup making him equally as effective to both RHH and LHH. A left-handed hitter that starts in a balanced setup. Simple load that leads to balanced launch. Swing is level with obvious strength and speed through the zone. Ball comes off well without a ton of effort to strike. Middle of the lineup type guy with high swing. Some of the more raw power we’ve come across in his class for his class. Corner type in the outfield with a huge arm. Actions are fluid and athletic with above average ball skills. Really looks the part out there. |

Adam Beery LHP / 1B / Rootstown, OH / 2021Rankings StateRank: 20 / POS: 2
Report: Two-way prospect. On the mound the southpaw has a slower paced tempo to a delivery that require some effort. Drop and drive type that gets down the mound well, finishing towards home plate. Arm is clean through a high-¾ slot. Spins a sluvirsh looking breaking ball that has depth and sharpness to it at 69-71 mph. Spins it well, showing present swing/miss abilities. Fastball has late life through the zone sitting 79-82 mph. Although breaking ball is primary secondary offering he also shows a playable changeup at 72-74 mph. A strike thrower that fills up the zone with all three offerings. Also intriguing as a first baseman. |
