Uncommitted Prospect Spotlight: Ty Mead
March 16, 2018
Throughout the year PBR will put the spotlight on a number of uncommitted prospects who show the necessary tools to play at the next level. 2019 IF Ty Mead from Cactus Shadows HS stood out at the Preseason All-State Games as a capable infield defender that currently plays up the middle but may fit very well as a college third baseman. Mead showed some present power to the pull side and an efficient, advanced swing.
