Uncommitted. 6-foot-3, 198-pound, broad-shouldered, athletic, well-proportioned build. Left-handed hitter, started in center field and hit in the four-hole. Moves well for his size, clean arm that plays strong from the outfield. Offensively, finished 1-for-2 with a solo home run to right-field. Also walked and scored two runs. Easy, strong hands with above-average plate coverage and jump off the barrel. Physical, athletic, uncommitted left-handed hitter to know in the class.

OF/RHP Jacob Parr (Lemont, 2025) gave an impressive look as a two-way prospect at the Illinois State Games. On the bump, the 6-foot-4, 190-pound right-hander worked a fluid, stretch-only delivery paired with a short ¾ slot with quickness out front. Parr showed a three-pitch mix with a heavy-sinking fastball that topped out at 82.8 mph. Parr rounded out his mix with a slider that he was able to land it for strikes, and a changeup that flashed running action. Offensively, Parr stayed flat through the zone and used the whole field in BP, and he picked up a pair of hits in-game, too.

OF Jacob Parr (Lemont, 2025) is yet another outfielder who has been putting in work and making gains since his last PBR appearance in August of 2022. Parr has a strong, athletic, 6-foot-4, 188-pound frame and has chiseled his 7.13 60-time down from a 7.99 last August.  He has also seen his arm strength and bat strength tick up as well. The left-handed hitter has loose, strong hands, natural lift through the zone and worked to both gaps throughout his round of BP. Defensively, his arm played up to 84 mph from with steady actions.
