2025 prospects
Reese Logsdon SS / RHP / Archbishop Murphy, WA / 2025Rankings StateRank: 33 / POS: 9
6’1, 170 with present strength and athletic build. Logsdon moves easily at SS with body control and tempo through the play. Smooth glove to hand exchange with a soft funnel as he receives the ball. Uses a hip hinge to work down to the ball and stays low easily. Loose arm action from ¾ slot. Offensively starts slightly open in a crouched set-up with upright posture. Gathers with a knee-knock load then takes a controlled forward stride. Hands pull back with a slight scap load to create stretch against front side. Hands stay tight and keep barrel inside of the ball. Gap to gap, line drive type power.

Braden Bartholomae OF / C / Skyline, WA / 2025Rankings StateRank: 40 / POS: 12
5’10, 165 with pound for pound strength. Defensively plays an exceptional OF with quick reads off the bat and crisp routes with closing speed. Sound footwork when moving laterally. Easy exchange into throwing motion when working down to the ball. Athletic mover. Loose arm action with high ¾ slot. Accurate ball flight out of hand with carry. Offensively has always possessed exceptional bat to ball skills and has continually added more power with a great ability to impact the baseball. Starts tall, with upright posture and lower half open. Low leg lift to hover on backside as upper half rotates inward to create tension through core. Strong, quick hands. Barrel gets on plane early, covering depth in the zone with slight uphill finish late. Consistent line drive contact off the bat. Noticeable feel for hit.
