Wemhoff has all the tools to be an impact bat for the Jayhawks. He’s built like a linebacker at 6-foot-2, 205-pounds with clear strength and athleticism. We saw him clobber a few loud home runs at Creekside this summer, patrol the outfield grass with ease, and show off a potent arm with a few loud throws as well. He’s a high ceiling bat with the athleticism to be a key piece down the road for Kansas.
A winner across multiple showings at Creekside this summer, OF Colton Wemhoff (Rockhurst, 2023; Kansas commit) swings one of the state’s most physical right-handed bats. At 6-foot-2, 185-pounds with athleticism and strength, Wemhoff ambushed baseballs on repeat for the Royals Scout Team.
Few have impacted the ball with as much authority as Wemhoff has at Creekside this summer, as the 6-foot-2, 185-pound Jayhawk recruit thumps balls off his barrel at a different impact than most. Hitting primarily out of the cleanup spot for the Royals Scout Team, Wemhoff’s hardest hit ball was a screaming no-doubt home run on Saturday afternoon that tied the game late in an eventual victory for the tournament runner-ups. Wemhoff’s tools translate to the outfield, where he’s an above-average athlete that comfortably roams the outfield grass with equally impressive arm strength to pair.
Colton Wemhoff: OF/SS, (2023) Rockhurst, MO. 6-foot-1, 170-pound lean frame. At the plate, Wemhoff clocked an exit velocity of 85 mph. Begins in a balanced stance with a smooth load, then uses a quick stride to initiate his swing. Bat speed was explosive, displayed a simple swing plane and high finish. Found some barrels with loud contact . Gap to gap approach. Above average from the outfield, his best throws to the bases were registered at 82 mph; had a clean exchange, athletic footwork and sure hands. Consistent accuracy to the bag, used an-over-the-top slot with a short arm action. During the event, ran the 60-yard dash in 7.17
