Putting together an all-around solid showing was RHP/OF Wade Ozment (Crystal Lake Central, 2027). The No. 27 ranked player in the state started the event spraying baseballs to the middle/opposite fields throughout his batting practice round, using a line drive approach. He also tied for the event high in outfield velocity, with his hardest bullet topping out at 88 mph. Ozment then showed his upside on the mound, using his long levers at 6-foot-3, 175-pounds to his advantage. He throws from a loose and clean, low ¾ slot that adds deception to his arsenal. His fastball played with sink and heavy arm-side run (avg. 19.5” HM) at 80-82 mph (T83.8). He then turned to a short slider at 71-72 mph with occasional depth from a 9/3 shape, while showing a feel for the zone with the pitch. Ozment would round out his arsenal with a 73-74 mph changeup that played with heavy sink at the bottom of the zone.

Ozment showed power to both sides of the diamond on Sunday, as the outfielder laced a two-RBI opposite field single in his first at-bat of the day before knocking a triple to right field in the third frame. Ozement finished the game going 2-for-2 with a walk and two RBI’s. Ozment is also a high level arm with plenty of projection on the mound. Ozment has feel for the zone with three distinct pitches from a low slot, a fastball 79-81 mph with sinking action, mixes in a curveball with two-plane break and a changeup with similar movement to the fastball.

RHP/INF Cy Craft (DuQuoin) and OF/RHP Wade Ozment (Crystal Lake Central, 2027) were two other two-way prospects that have bright futures all across the diamond moving forward. Craft touched 82 mph with his fastball and swung a quick, aggressive right-handed bat. Ozment has an advanced 6-foot, 150-pound, well-proportioned frame and he swings a whippy, intentful right-handed bat that stays through the zone a long time. He topped at 80 mph from the outfield, as well as on the mound, sitting 78-79 with a polished three-pitch mix for his age and starter profile.
