Prep Baseball Report

Player Spotlight: 2019 SS Mark McNelly


Greg Williams
Pennsylvania Director of Scouting


Leading up to the start of the 2018 summer events schedule we will be highlighting some prospects to watch at upcoming PBR events. Today we highlight 2019 SS Mark McNelly (Spring-Ford), who impressed at the 2018 Preseason Preview in January. The 6-foot-1, 172-pound junior stood out with a solid round of batting practice while running a 6.85 60-yard dash.



Scouting Report

1/13/18 - 6-foot-1, 165-pound right-handed hitter starts from a square stance and utilizes a short, lift-and-replace stride to initiate his swing. Displayed a solid hip turn and an ability to create back spin with an 84 mph bat exit velocity. Ran a 6.85 60-yard dash and showcased 81 mph arm strength across the diamond with an over-the-top arm slot throwing motion. Plays through the baseball routinely and showed enough athleticism and projectable frame to play a number of defensive positions moving forward.
