A 5-foot-8, 165-pound solid frame; C/3B. At the plate, the right-handed hitter had a max exit velocity of 80 mph with above average swing mechanics for his age. Begins in a balanced an open stance, has a smooth load and uses a leg kick just before his swing. Exhibits quick bat speed, an upward swing plane and a high finish. Found mostly barrels in BP. Defensively, Gillespie showed overall advanced actions for his age. He displayed a plus arm with strong throw downs to second that hit 75 mph for showcase pop times of 1.97-2.07; had a quick exchange and firm hands. In the outfield, his throws to the bases were maxed out at 82 mph. In the 60-yard dash, he recorded a time of 7.63.

A 5-foot-8, 160-pound frame with some strength. Offensively, the right-hitter bats from an even, balanced, and quiet setup. Uses a big and controlled leg kick with a hand pump load before launching his hands on a slightly uphill path with good extension. In BP, shows a middle of the field approach with consistent lift with high effort, mostly barrels, 77 mph exit velo. Runs a 7.34 60. Defensively, receives from a slightly narrow setup with his left knee turned in, average hands and some sway, developing blocking. On throws down, shows clean feet and uses a short arm stroke coming through an over the top slot with some accuracy at 74 mph for showcase pop times of 2.09-2.15.
6/2/18 A 5-foot-6, 145-pound developing frame. Offensively, the right-handed hitter bats from a slightly open, quiet, and back leg heavy set-up. Uses a smooth hand load with a moderate stride and a late heel plant for timing before sending his hands on a slightly uphill path with big extension. In BP, shows a flat middle/pull ground approach, finding a few barrels, 76 mph exit velo. Runs a 7.66 second 60. Defensively, from behind the dish, shows good hands, receiving from a flexible and sturdy base. Throws down to second with a short arm stroke through an over the top slot with developing accuracy, 70 mph to second base and showcase pop times of 2.20-2.26. Also athletic enough to play in the middle infield.
