2025 SS Akshay Persaud put together a good week at the plate and on the infield. Showed well on scout day at shortstop with good, active feet, a smooth glove and arm strength that translated to game action where he turned several difficult balls into outs. Right-handed hitter with a wide setup, good load and level swing. Produced in-game with several hits and some loud contact at-times. Gap-to-gap right now with some speed but the bat will become more impactful as he fills out his 5-foot-10, 153-pound frame.
