An elite athlete with huge upside, OF Marquis Mitchell (Georgia Premier, 2024) is going to turn some heads. A rangy center field type with elite long speed (6.60 60 yd). Mitchell has some of the best bat speed in Georgia's 2024 class. He is an explosive combo of swing mechanics and genetics. A leverage hitter who creates big torque in separation, every swing has aggressive intent. A top notch competitor.

Scouting Report
Uncommitted. 6 foot 1, 150 pounds, good athlete who will get even more twitchy as he grows into his frame. Minimal movement at plate to keep head still for tracking & let hands work. Good separation timing of hands & stride- moving same pace in opposite directions. Dude 2 watch!

6-foot-1, 160-pounds, Slender frame, lean twitchy muscle, long levers. Right-handed hitting outfielder, Elite athlete who has rare traits - bat speed, athleticism, separation timing, aggressiveness. Raw but very timed up and hard to beat with FB's. Tall posture, feet and knees angled inside a wide base with a steady, vertical barrel, hands set just below back shoulder with very quiet but twitchy movement in one spot. Poetry in motion as hips start swing. At the exact time they touch & go off the backside, it signals a perfectly timed separation as the barrel slowly tilts into launch position. Gets optimal stretch from core & chest rotating gradually to back hip in stride. The timing of this stretch at landing creates unreal torque. Some sweep in path to contact due to slight arm bar, but hands are so fast he gets away with it easily. Small adjustment, front elbow just needs to gradually bend as he throws hands and through the path. Back elbow tucks in sequence, strong thru contact. Standout juice to the pullside with optimal trajectory. oppo pop, 92.5 exit velocity.
