Glenn

5-foot-11, 200 pounds. While this effortless masher with incredible feel for the barrel went off throughout the spring at the plate and on the mound, we actually didn’t get to see him pitch until 2023. The 1st looks I got on him were last fall at LakePoint, where he was timing up 88 mph arms and spitting on future hammer breaking balls. If you don’t believe us check the tweets. While we have no doubt Glenn is going to bring 2 way value to the D1 level, this is as pure of a hitter as they come and is one of the best in the state, as we’ve been claiming in multiple articles for some time now. This stocky beast has hand eye coordination you just can’t teach. Every BP round I’ve ever seen him take, it’s nothing but clean barrels. The swing mechanics are impeccable and he creates perfect backspin on nearly every hit he gets. Not only does he almost never roll over, he has the combo of bat speed and bat strength that allow him to match or exceed the impact of 90+ mph FB’s. This is a player who is a lock to hit for average and power at the D1 level, and has elite makeup. He leads by example and is a very humble player, which is a rare trait in todays age of social media and hype. The standout qualities are truly endless for Glenn, and he’s been working hard off the field to build the frame. He’s gotten noticeably stronger while trimming up his build, making the upper half more proportional with his extremely strong lower half.  His exceptional timing of release points, near perfect swing mechanics, and hitting intangibles now have even more fast twitch fibers to work with. Glenn wasn’t just our MVP of Game 3, but was so consistent at the plate he honestly deserves to be the MVP of the entire tournament. Whoever decided to go all in on Glenn in the month of August, it will be one of the best decisions they have ever made.

A pure hitter that continued to display the hit tool in the Future Games. Well-timed in sequence with an advanced lower half sink and is well-balanced in stride. A clean and powerful swing that pleases the eye. At 5-foot-11, 200 pounds, he has a strong, athletic frame that he is well in-tune with. He displayed the contact and power with an RBI triple in the 3rd, smoked at 96 EV to build on Team Georgia’s lead. Glenn continues to develop power and can only trend upward from here, matching the power to the pure hitting tool. 

Uncommitted. 6-foot, 185 pounds. We already absolutely loved Glenn as a hitter, but it was absolutely shocking to see his mound talent on display vs the Wolves. In our eyes, he went from one of the purest hitters in the class to also one of the most intriguing arms in the class in one game. His mound performance was so good it almost overshadowed his multiple QAB’s at the plate. Not only do I love how easily he operates on the mound, but how gradually he coils to the back hip in stride, with the chest/shoulder rotation perfectly matching his L3/4 arm slot. With the hips rolling slowly down the mound keeping him moving momentum wise, the patience in his upper half over the rubber (during stride) impresses and creates that rubber band effect. Combine this with his violent, more east to west core/upper half rotation post landing, and you’ve got some SERIOUS velocity potential. As everyone that follows our content knows, player comparisons are always on my mind. As I’m already considering multiple hitter comps for Glenn, the first one that came to mind on the mound is current draft prospect and one of my favorite players in the country, RHP Garrett Lambert from Parkview. Although the deliveries aren’t similar - the frame, lower half build, FB life, ease of operation, explosiveness (for his age), and relaxed nature on the mound are all very similar. The big difference in their secondary repertoire is - Lambert has a better breaking ball, and Glenn has a better CH at the same age. Speaking of the CH, it is disgusting and arguably the best in the class. The pitch absolutely stops time just before reaching the plate, with both sudden fade and depth. As a hitter, few are more timed up with all of the hitting intangibles we look for in a young bat.
