Notes

3/02/24
One of the classes' best in-game hitters - Gates' game cannot fully be measured within a showcase setting, however he was able to post solid metrics across the board. Athletic at 5-foot-11, 185 pounds, with offseason strength gains noticeable, Gates put together a solid round of batting practice with a controlled leg kick, line drive approach, and a quick left-handed stroked. Reaching a peak exit velocity of 95.3 mph, Gates turns the barrel on an ideal path to optimize hard contact to the big part of the field. A 6.94 runner - the Indiana recruit posted one of the top outfield arms of the weekend, reaching 93 mph.

Position Profile: OF/LHP
Body: 5-11, 170-pounds. Uber-athletic build
Hit: LHH. Balanced setup, strong lower half. Knee-to-knee leg kick sets back hip up to fire. Loose hands turn the barrel with whip. One of the top hitters at the event.
Power: 94 max exit velocity, averaged 86.6 mph. 290' max distance.
Arm: LH. OF-90 mph. Long, loose, and quick arm from an OTT slot - ball carries
