Spencer Leite: 2B/RHP, (2025) Notre Dame WH, CT. 5-foot-10, 175-pound athletic strong build. Smooth athletic in the box, the right-handed hitter's best exit velocity was 86 mph. (66.1 mph bat speed average). (22.4 mph hand speed average). Starts in a balanced athletic stance with a tight compact load, then uses a short controlled stride. Bat speed is quick electric, displays a short simple swing plane and high finish. Barreled up multiple balls with tons of loud contact. Gap to gap line drive approach. Above average while in the infield, recorded position velocities up to 71 mph; has athletic smooth feet, a twitchy clean exchange, and soft hands. Laterally, movements were athletic and fielded the ball out front. Using a short quick arm action, showed consistent accuracy to the bag from a high ¾ slot. Above average projectable on the mound, showed quick arm speed, also used a high ¾ arm angle and a short compact arm action. Tall-and-fall type pitcher and shows easy effort. Tall balance point with in line downhill shoulders. Lands square with an athletic finish. Sat with his fastball at 74-76 mph; had a heavy fastball that showed sinking action and control down in the zone. (Max spin 2018; Avg 1997). Throws a 1/7 curveball (65-66) that shows glove side control and slurvey action. (Max spin 2138; Avg 2105). Threw his 2/8 slider (66-68) with late hard action and down in the zone command.

5-foot-3, 118-pound, smaller, thin athletic frame. A right-handed hitting infielder, at the plate, even feet, higher, loose hands. The lower half is under control gaining ground. The swing is level through the zone, hands are inside the baseball, middle to pull side approach. Stays through it and finishes the swing off with two-hands above the shoulders. The tee exit velocity was clocked at 58 mph and ran a 4.71 from home to 1st base. Defensively, threw 59 mph across the diamond, arm action short and clean working from a natural 3/4 slot. Uses more of a hop into a shuffle for the transfer, could stay lower gaining more ground. The feet and hands work in sync together. Off the mound, simple delivery, staying balanced and over the rubber. The fastball was clocked at 57 mph, with more 4-seamers, threw the curveball at 50-53 mph, needs more fastball hand speed.
