True two-way players can have huge impacts on both sides of the ball, making them a premium at the next level. Today, PBR Oklahoma will take a look at three infielders who double as right handed pitchers from the 2018 class.  

Cole Broughton, RHP/3B, Tushka HS
A 6-foot, 180-pound broad-chested, thick build, strong hands. On the mound, fluid delivery, high leg kick, long arm action, high-3/4 slot. Fastball shows some run and sink, 84-86 mph, heavy when in the bottom of the zone.  Slider sits 68-70 mph, 10/4 shape.  Offensively, right-handed hitter, hits to all fields. Balanced stance, smooth load, short to the ball, on plane through contact. Defensively, strong arm, clean actions, average hands.

Jordan Compton, SS/RHP, Carl Albert HS
A 5-foot-11, 170-pound lean build. Offensively, switch hitter, more consistent from the right, middle of the field approach, bat speed, some pop to the pull gap. Back leg heavy set-up, some rhythm in the hands, small stride, slightly uphill path produces backspin. Defensively, quick, accurate arm, average hands, flashes improved footwork. On the mound, smooth delivery, average effort, short arm circle, 3/4 slot. Fastball sits 82-84 and can touch 85 mph, late arm-side run with sink. Curveball has 11/5, good depth, 70-71 mph.

Jacob Savage, 3B/RHP, Latta HS
