FB up to 85 and a breaking ball around 70. Smooth and easy mechanics all him to be repeatable✅#bootsontheground ? pic.twitter.com/KJKupAfuhj

Solid approach here by ‘22 3B Nathan Vidmar shortens up here with 2K to line a ball into CF for a Sac Fly.
The 6’3 225 lb CIF has a large frame and athletic movements in the field. pic.twitter.com/6tNWf2qx22

‘22 SS Jack Bateman (@ACBaseball1967) certainly looks the part in the middle. Controlled, rhythmic defender & arrives on-time w/ the left foot at the fielding window. Understanding for pace, posture, & fluidity (always kept the feet moving). Will be one to watch. @GregWilliamsPBR pic.twitter.com/SBmjGjCqCh

#Uncommitted ‘21 MIF Kyle Daugherty (@RLBaseballPA) entered action hitting at a .545 clip w/ 3 XBH (two triples & an ITPHR last week). Extremely twitchy athlete (6-foot, 155 lbs) w/ +avg barrel awareness. Laser 2B to start off the 8th. ?@prepbaseball @GregWilliamsPBR pic.twitter.com/F6z4Sjc62k

Big riser potential from ‘23 RHP Jason Kreiger (@RLBaseballPA). Came into the game w/ 13 K’s in 8.2 IP & missed plenty of barrels. “Gamer” type on the bump.

Tough low-3/4 slot w/ + command on the FB (82-83 mph). Worked off the outside corner primarily, pairing deceptive 68 SL.? pic.twitter.com/Tba5PSR6n0

‘21 righty @Gabem26G (@cbebaseball / @Arcadia_BASE) has found consistent success w/ +avg pitchability traits on the mound (3 wins, .197 BAA). Tunnels everything w/ the same arm speed, pitching off of the CB.

FB: 84-86, late ASR
CB: 71-73, s&m
CH: 79-80, fade.
