Uncommitted Spotlight - '22 1B/LHP Tanner Douglas
April 2, 2021
Last month we were finally able to open the doors at the NW Sports Hub and welcome over 300 prospects from Washington and Oregon to the Northwest Pre-Season Invite. The 3 day event ran from Tuesday, Feb 16th through Thursday, February 18th and saw athletes ranging from the ‘21 grad class all the way down to ‘25 and even ‘26.
With high school baseball on the horizon in both Washington and Oregon, the Pre-Season Invite gave prospects the opportunity to show off the progress they’ve made as they’ve patiently waited to get back out onto the diamond again.
Showcases help identify which prospects have asserted themselves towards the top of their class as well as who might be one of the next youngsters to emerge onto the scene. They also serve as potential identifiers for invite-only events such as our Future Games and Junior Future Games

Scouting Report
Tall, lanky and lean at 6-foot-2, 175. Douglas has a ton of length and leverage in his frame and a wide build that should allow him to carry more mass easily. At the plate, stays tall with an upright stance and a wide hitting base. Uses a knee-knock type load as hands drift down and back. Starts tall and stays tall into landing. Short forward stride to create stretch against hands. The swing metrics show an on-plane barrel and exceptional rotation power. Peppered the middle of the diamond with line-drives and has significant potential left to tap into. Finishes with a level barrel and gets leverage against a strong front side. Defensively, looks to have the size and athleticism to cover ground laterally. Bounced around the bag with light footwork. Loose hips help him work down to the ball easily while being a taller INF. Keeps glove centered when he funnels in. Short, tight arm action with high 3/4 release. On the mound, shows quality present stuff while still offering projection to grow into. Simple, quick paced delivery with low effort actions. Keeps upright posture with a lower leg lift that shows significant coil/rotation into back hip. Has some bend on rear leg as he gets into stride. Shoulders stay level throughout. Clean direction from lower half at landing. Arm action has some length early then shortens up quickly. Quick hand speed out front. Releases against a strong front leg and rotates over front side. FB has life out of hand and there's some feel for keeping CB/CH around the zone
