Cote is one of the more impressive two-way players in Alberta’s 2024 class, and had one of the better overall days at the Scout Day. At the dish there's present twitch and athleticism. He elevated back up the middle with authority, 7 of his 11 batted balls were above 88 mph and he reached a max exit velocity of 97.5 mph. It's still raw on the mound as he just started to learn how to pitch, but impressive nonetheless. With a short and quick arm, the fastballs sits 85-87 mph and pairs that with a sinker that's 86-88 mph. He has two unique breaking balls with distinct profiles. A slider with -13.2 inches of horizontal break/-7.0 inches of induced vertical break, and a curveball with -6.3 inches of horizontal break/15.5 inches of induced vertical break. Cote will be looking to make a major impact on both sides of the ball with ATHX this summer.
