Friday Five - Summer Underclass Standouts
September 11, 2020
Britton Ellenberg RHP / 1B / West Ashley , SC / 2024- Ellenburg draws your attention because of where he is physically. The frame is easy to dream on and there is clearly room for additional strength in there. Was a big winner at the SA Summer Championship Showcase. Showed command of three pitches with some feel. Long loose arm action. Also turned in a nice outing in game during the SA Summer Championship.

FB up to 80 with advanced feel for offspeed. Quick arm with an athletic delivery. Also ran a 6.94 sixty at the SA Summer Championship Showcase. Junior Future Games standout.

Physical 3B has tremendous upside. Strong frame will see the arrow continue to point upward.

Two way potential, solid defender, has some juice at the plate that will continue to develop as he matures.
