MIF Caleb Salgado (Walter Payton, 2026) put together one of the day’s more polished defensive workouts, floating around the infield with confidence and advanced actions for his age. He’s a quick mover with athletic feet and natural bounce that comfortably played on the move, particularly up the middle. Salgado’s confident in his glovework too, with soft hands and a quick release from multiple arm angles.
