Scouting Report
(4/5/24)
The fastest 60 time of the Preseason belonged to Cole. The Jr. from Salado ran a 6.55 60 at the San Antonio Preseason ID, showing off his plus speed. Cole also showed a good arm off, topping out at 87 mph, giving him all the necessary tools to play centerfield. Cole also took some work on the dirt and showed his positional versatility. At the plate, he showed off a short, compact swing from the left side. He stayed in the big part of the field and did a good job of trying to work back through the middle. He had a max exit velo of 91.4 mph. Cole is a good athlete, who offers positional versatility and continues to get better each time we see him. We are looking forward to seeing him again this Summer at the Top Prospect Games.

Brody Cole, Salado (TX), 2025 Positional Profile: SS/RHP Cole is an all around athlete showing some major potential on both sides of the ball. He is very mechanicaly sound, and is just scraping the surface of the ballplayer he can be. Body: 5-8, 157-pounds. Hit: LHH. Weight back, slightly open. Bat pointed towards pitcher. Smooth swing, doesn't let his hands drop below shoulder. Catches top half of the baseball. 65.4 mph bat speed with 13 G's of rotational acceleration. Power: 91 max exit velocity, averaged 83.8 mph. 263' max distance. Really solid contact, some power starting to show. Will likely see increased EV and distance as he continues to get stronger. Arm: RH. INF-84 mph. OF-85 mph. Strong arm for not using much of lower half. Mostly accurate. Defense: Looks comfortable and natural, smooth in and out of the glove. ATH: 6.55 runner in the 60. 1.63 and 3.65 in the 10 and 30 yard splits.
