September 15, 2023
Over the last few weeks we overhauled our Class Rankings for Oregon for the 2024-2026 classes.
For those updates, click the links to each grad class.
Today we are highlighting 3 uncommitted prospects that are names-to-know in Oregon's 2024 class as we enter the increasingly important fall season.
UNCOMMITTED SPOTLIGHT
2024 PROSPECTS
Ezra Vice OF / OF / Westview, OR / 2024Rankings PBR Oregon: 51
From 6/23/23: "[Vice] has always been a wiry, rangy athlete in the OF with impressive speed. His game has taken a nice step forward as he’s added more bulk to his frame while also tightening up some swing mechanics and putting a shorter, tighter move on the ball. A 6.86 runner with peak EV of 95.1 and 83 mph arm from the OF. Frame can still carry more weight so it’s possible more power is still on the way." |
Mickey McClaskey RHP / OF / Jesuit, OR / 2024Rankings PBR Oregon: 63
McClaskey is a high-waisted 6-foot-3, 180-pounds with long levers and plenty of room to continue adding mass. He made his PBR debut this summer at Portland Summer Open and came away a big winner from the event. McClaskey uses an easy effort operation and is an athletic mover down the mound. The fastball sits in the low-80s, and he offers a sweeping breaking balls and a fading changeup to keep hitters guessing. There is some deception to his delivery, as he gets above average extension (6.4 feet) and throws from a high release height (5.8 feet). He got a taste of varsity this past spring, and with several of the Crusaders' top arms graduating, McClaskey may have the opportunity to step into a big role in the rotation in 2024. |
Grayson Grover 3B / RHP / Scappoose , OR / 2024Rankings PBR Oregon: 69
From 8/29/23: "Grover offers intriguing upside in his 6-foot, 175-pound frame with wiry levers. He put together an impressive spring for Scappoose, playing a vital role in their 4A State Championship run. Grover capped off his junior campaign with a two hit, three-RBI performance in the title game to help Indians secure the championship. After the spring, he came away a winner from our Top Prospect Games in July after posting the second highest maximum and average rotational acceleration at the event. After a sensational year, Grover jumps over 20 spots in our recent update." |
