Florida ProCase Preview: OF Matthew Prevesk
May 21, 2020
The PBR ProCase has been a staple of the Prep Baseball Report's pro coverage over the last 17 years. The event has become one of the more high-powered pro showcases in the state and has seen multiple high draft picks in year’s past. There have been four players drafted in the top five rounds of the MLB Draft to have attended the Florida ProCase in previous years. The biggest of them all was Mason Denaburg, who was taken in the 1st round of the 2018 draft by the Washington Nationals. Another ProCase alum was Freddy Tarnok. He was selected by the Atlanta Braves in the 3rd round of the 2017 draft. Sam McMillan attended the first Florida ProCase in 2016. He was selected in the 5th round of the 2017 draft by the Detroit Tigers. And just last year, Tyler Callihan was selected in the 3rd round of the 2019 draft by the Cincinnati Reds.
The 2020 Florida ProCase will take place Friday, May 29th at Jackie Robinson Ballpark in Daytona, Florida. The event will feature a pro-style workout followed by simulated gameplay that we will be broadcasting live on Twitter. Starting today, we will be spotlighting each of the players that will be in attendance at the 2020 Florida ProCase.

Scouting Report
Listed as 6-foot-2, 185 pounds, Prevesk looks every bit the part with a filled out athletic frame and quick twitch ability that he couples with his added strength showcased by his 6.79 60 which led all players at the event. The arm is fluid and loose in the outfield, and he gets his weight behind the throw. At the plate, the Florida Gator commit again put the athleticism to play as he sprayed hard line drives to the gap and was up to 91 mph on exit velocity. With a smooth, rhythmic swing that he keeps consistent, the body control, and ability to get to a strong, balanced position proves that Prevesk works on his swing daily and is hungry to get better.
Florida recruit. Long-limbed, athletic 6-foot-2, 185 pound frame. Above average runner, 6.85 60-yard dash. Displayed athleticism and quickness in his movements and bat. Plenty of raw power from the left side. Quick and whippy through the zone with good lag in the barrel. Great bat path and good on the inside half. 95 mph exit velocity. Defensively, he has a strong accurate arm at 86 mph with carry, and showed it on two impressive attempts to throw runners out at third, one being successful. On the mound, sat 84-85 with a low effort, quick arm. Impressive pitchability out of a really offensive player, with a good late-breaking slider at 74, the ability to cut the fastball or make it run when he wants, and good command of both sides of the plate.
Florida recruit. 6-foot-2, 175-pound left-handed two-way prospect, lanky frame, wide shoulders, room for continued filling out. Long arm action, shows on the back-side, ¾ slot. Works directionally towards home, landing square, finishes upright. Mainly used running fastball, sat 78-81, located on both sides of the plate, at-times missed up. Offered up a changeup and slider sparingly. Changeup had fade action at 74. Slider, sweeper, 70. Offensively, power bat form the left-side.
Long and strong. Lean and athletic. Good levers. Physical projection. Pull heavy; bat head drops straight down and covers the lower half of the zone exceptionally well. Classic left handed swing path. 90 EV. Length in arms and present strength. Gets really advanced pull power now. Creates impressive loft. Will do damage to right field. Premier power, prototypical corner outfielder. Was intriguing on the mound, where he was 79-80 mph and showed a feel for a curveball and changeup. Committing to Florida shortly after the camp, he has an extremely high ceiling.
Long, lean, athletic and projectable frame Ran a 7.12 60 yard dash. The left handed hitting outfielder has a lot of offensive potential. He uses his long arms and creates leverage. As he continues to fill out and use the lower half you can see there being above average power potential. The swing works and will be one to follow as he continues to get at-bats against high level competition
