Charlotte MegaStar Scout Day: Outfielders
June 8, 2018
On Wednesday May 30th the Charlotte MegaStars held a Scout Day with Prep Baseball Report of North Carolina. The Scout Day allowed the players from the MegaStars program to run through a full pro-style workout with players collecting verified stats from our independent service. PBR Scouts were on hand to evaluate each prospect and players had the choice to add the evaluation and a video to their personal PBR profiles.
The updated statistics, evaluation, and video allow for a full PBR profile that can be shared with over 900 college coaches and Universities that subscribe to PBR. With college and pro evaluators on hand, several players stood out, and have developed over the past few months.
Five outfielders took part, working out at their primary position. Several projectable body types with quickness in the group. Luke Nelson (OF, 2019) turned in a 6.72 sixty on the laser timer. Reed Garland (OF/RHP, 2020) has an intriguing frame that should continue to add strength, with some quickness already present.

Outfielder Analysis
Kolby Crepeau OF / 1B / Clover, SC / 2020
|
Luke Nelson OF / Jay M Robinson, NC / 2019
Thin 5 feet 9, 155-pound build. Frame can handle strength as he continues to mature. Athletic with quickness, running a 6.72 laser timed sixty. Hits from the left side using an open, balanced set up. Uses a small leg kick in his load looking to get his lower half through the ball. Shows feel for his barrel with a line drive approach working to stay in the middle of the field. Stays fluid in his swing with his barrel works short to the ball getting extension out front with ball off his bat recorded at 82 mph. Shows an accurate arm from the outfield with clean exchanges and a long arm action that should play better as he plays through the ball more, with quicker transfers. Average carry with velocity peaking at 81 mph out of the hand. |
Logan Rogers OF / LHP / Jesse C. Carson , NC / 2020
|
Reed Garland OF / RHP / Northwestern, SC / 2020
Athletic 6 feet 1, 175-pound lanky build. Quickness exists in the frame. Ran a 7.26 sixty. Offensively he works from the right side with a tall, balanced setup. Gets his weight going back in his load and uses a short stride. He shows loose hands with his bat working level through the zone getting extension and shows the ability to generate some bat speed with his exit velocity recorded at 90 mph. In the outfield he shows average hands, with fluid feet and playing through the ball. Long arm action leading to an over the top slot with accurate throws. Slightly better than average carry with a positional velocity of 83 mph. |
