Scouting Report
Positional: 6-foot-4, 210-pound first baseman with an upright stance in the box, who looks to elevate pull side. Had the highest exit velocity for Team Colorado at 96.9. He was a two-way at the event with more projection on the mound right now.
Pitching: 6 foot 4, 210-pound RHP with room to gain strength and mature physically. He made it look easy in his three innings on the mound. His fastball sat 84-5, topping at 86. The slider was 75-79, and the change-up was 76. Working from a high three-quarter slot and a simple delivery, he could locate his fastball and create swing and miss with the slider (5K's). He is a guy you can dream on, and there should be more to come as he continues to fill out his frame.
Two-way talent has a big lean frame and tons of potential both ways. Thompson went 5IP, 2H, 0ER, with 4K’s. FB ranged from 84-87 touching 88. Maintained velo throughout. Located both sides of the plate. Maintained composure and showed leadership with a errors behind him. SL 78-79 was firm and in the zone. SL has a chance to be great pitch. CH 73-75 good feel and keeps it down in the zone. Consistent easy delivery. More in the tank with velo. High ceiling.
At early stages of development, demonstrated consistent and gradual improvements in measurables. Fastball topped out at 86.3 mph from over-the-top release (release height 6.21). Has slight coil and some dip/drive to delivery. Good extension(8.90) and high ceiling. Also shows potential as right-handed hitter/first baseman. 93 mph exit velocity. Some length, but has future potential for power. Great to follow as he trends up!
Narrow starting stance in the middle of the mound, slight pivot into a controlled, sweeping leg lift, strong lead leg block on landing, clean arm action with over-the-top release. FB 79-81. CB 64-68. CH 71-72. Long, lean body type with a very projectable frame. Pitcher to follow.
Positional Profile: OF/RHP
Body: 6’2” 170 lbs
Run: 7.50
Hit: Right-Handed hitter, upright balanced stance, sway into small leg lift, high hands to start with a good job keeping hands inside the ball, strong backside acceleration allowing him to get all the way through the ball, consistent two handed finish.

Power: Gap-to-gap approach
Arm: OF, 84 from the outfield, smooth, over-the-top arm action.
Defense: Athletic outfielder with good footwork, uses his momentum to come all the way through the ball and throw with accuracy, consistent crow hop.

Head slight tilt and pull to glove side. Over the Top Delivery. Minimal glove side pull with minimal torso rotation. FB 74-80 Some down action CB 62-64 Gradual movement on breaking pitch CH 68-69 Good aggressive approach, with extended finish. Stayed down in zone.

Run: 4.58 Home to first.
Hit: Right-handed hitter with a big, wide stance and 50/50 weight distribution. Rock sway to load and a simple up/down stride foot. Stays 50/50 at launch. Hands start at shoulder, bat head has rhythm movements. Barrel upright at launch position. Hands extend back with arm angles also creating extension before launch. Ty creates on time swing consistently with a line drive path and long finish. Had a great contact round in event. Exit velocity of 88 mph.
Power: Unique and athletic lean swing that many look at his added strength and development. Can see power and future power potential.
Arm: OF Velo 76 Long Levers and Lean. Long to Long arm action. Uses lower half
