Over the course of two years worth of showcase play tracked by Synergy Sports, amounting to roughly 250 swings on tape, Jones never pulled a ball to the left of the left-center field gap, and all but about a dozen of his airborne balls in play were to right field. His first step can be a little delayed, but Jones huge strides eat up tons of ground in the outfield, and he gallivants into the gaps, robs would-be doubles, and has a runner-sniping arm.

The 100 reports will be in a PDF of our book format and you'll have access . Ortiz put up some silly offensive numbers as an amateur, including a .422/.474/.697 line as a junior at New Mexico State that was caricatured by the elevation of Las Cruces, which is one of the most hitter-friendly environments in college baseball. A career .269/.374/.485 hitter in the minors, there are still some analysts who are skeptical Casas will make enough contact to profile comfortably as an above-average regular at first base.

The curve features similar movement with longer break and both are nasty when he runs them off the plate glove side, though both play in the strike zone, as well. Like DeLauter, Neto made people sit up and take notice of a player putting up huge numbers at a mid-major program. Yorke and his French swing (because it is evocative of Ty France) looked like a high-probability big league hitter with a well-rounded contact and power combination in Arizona, enough to project as a regular if he can stay on the dirt. He has some outfield experience but very little in pro ball, and he doesnt exactly look like a fish in water out there. ), and this is true of Cartaya in most underlying statistical categories and proprietary stats that attempt to measure power output objectively. Added to the 40-man roster in November, De La Cruz is on pace for regular big league playing time in 2024. He still has two years before he technically has to be added to the 40-man, and theoretically the Phillies could use all that runway to keep developing him as a starter in the hopes that things click, but going on age 24 that feels like a bit of a pipe dream. We gravitate toward up-the-middle defenders littered all throughout the minor leagues, and really only tend to push corner bats onto the list when theyre close to the big leagues, or if we have an abnormal degree of confidence that they will continue to hit all the way through the minors. Prior to his fifth-round selection in the 2021 draft, Graceffo had been Villanovas Friday starter, routinely called upon to throw well over 100 pitches per outing. While he was closer to the 50/55 FV line last offseason, the snapshot of the defensive piece of the puzzle pulls him more comfortably into the 50s for this list cycle, one of many Guardians upper-level middle infielders with the talent to be an everyday player. Lee is a skilled, switch-hitting shortstop (for now) with power. This sort of offensive player would be a good everyday third baseman and a star shortstop. 19Oklahoma StateBig 124OK1-1172119 Even more precocious than Prezs velocity is his fastball command, which is absurd for a 19-year-old, let alone one who throws this hard and is also this size. RHP Jack OConnor The 6-5 righty lasted five innings on Saturday, allowing just one hit and striking out seven. He will reach back and show you a plus arm when he needs to. Messick was quietly dominant in 2021, going 8-2 with a 3.10 ERA and 126 strikeouts in 90 innings, and hell go into 2022 with a chance to end the season as the best starting pitcher in the country. He does not take casual BP hacks he maxes out and swings with all-out effort, which extends to his in-game approach, a feature that gives some scouts pause and worry that big league pitchers will pull the rug out from under him. 1, Florida State surges into D1Baseball's top 25 after Week 2, 2023 Round Rock Baseball Classic: Schedule, how to watch LSU, Iowa, K-State, Sam Houston, First No. Rafaela is a Gold Glove-caliber center fielder with a very immature approach. His hard-hit and barrel rates are already well above what is typical for a big league shortstop, and he still has more room for mass on his frame. He hit a whopping .324/.373/.600 at Low-A Carolina during the first half of the year, then slashed a more pedestrian .252/.317/.488 (as an 18-year-old!) He started the season at High-A, advancing to Double-A in late May, where his strikeout rate increased slightly, but not at all to a concerning degree. Stones plus (at least) on-mound athleticism and gorgeous arm action allow for continued projection on his fastball utility and command even though hes in his mid-20s, which gives him bigger long-term ceiling than that. Previous ranking: No. Harrisons fastball sits 93-94 mph, topping out around 98, and it plays up thanks to its shape and the deceptively low lefty arm slot Harrison hurls it from. In two-strike counts, Cavalli threw his fastball 51% of the time in the first couple months of the season, with the curveball coming in second at just 22%. One of the best high school prospects to make it to a college campus last season, Parada didnt disappoint in year one for Georgia Tech. Meanwhile, his changeup hasnt yet made the necessary strides to consistently play against advanced righty hitters, and his overall command has plateaued. McGarrys mid-80s slider and low-80s changeup are both plus, but his control issues extend to those pitches. He performed well during a September call-up to New York, posting a BABIP-aided .306/.404/.429 line in 18 games. The junior righty struck out nine in five hitless innings against New Orleans and appeared out of the bullpen against Liberty, another hitless performance. As Volpe has added strength and mass, the trunk of his body has thickened substantially and impacted his defensive mobility a bit. Long, lanky and loaded with tools and projection, Alcantara is a loose, 6-foot-6 outfielder with massive potential. In that case, were talking about a rock solid everyday player in the Mark Canha mold, and in fact Vargas career has tracked in a similar fashion, especially as we stand on the precipice of a likely position change. RHP AJ Hutcheson The true freshman was lights-out from the bullpen this past week, appearing two times and striking out seven without allowing a hit. Even as various aspects of his profile remain amorphous, Ramos offensive performance to this point and optimism that hell ultimately be able to play at least one infield position well as he matures put him on the Top 100 despite his variance. He has impeccable hitters timing and a swing that is equal parts balanced and explosive, generating plus all-fields power despite barely utilizing any sort of stride.

Even if thats the outcome, hes probably a good enough reliever that youd value him close to this range anyway, especially if his peak velocity returns with such a move. The SEC leads all conferences with 13 teams (out of its 14 current members) in the Top 100. Chourio is a hard-swinging center fielder with plus power and speed. The compact nature of Carrolls body and swing gives him a little extra time and distance to diagnose pitches, and his strength makes him a threat to do damage on the ones that he lets travel deep into the hitting zone. While he was already throwing quite hard, Ortiz came into even more velocity in 2022 and averaged 97 mph on his fastball, up two ticks from 2021. 98Ball StateMAC3IN4N/ANRNRNR Hassell was playing like his usual sweet-swinging self until he was traded to Washington as part of the Juan Soto blockbuster; after the deal, his performance took a nosedive. Its tough to be a 2-WAR DH every year (Bryce Harpers 2022 100-game line was good for 2 WAR), but Busch has the hit/power combination to do it. Yorkes rhythm and timing at the plate were fantastic there, though, and were inclined to dismiss his 2022 as being the result of his injuries rather than a real regression in skill or exposure of a flaw in his offense. He has special hand-eye coordination and bat-to-ball skill, as well as a tremendous idea of the strike zone. Bibee seems to have altered his stride direction so that he isnt landing quite as closed as he was at Fullerton, which appears to enable him to stay behind the baseball a little better, creating riding action on a fastball that wasnt previously as explosive.

After initially showing feel for opposite field-only contact on the complex, Wood began to turn on balls more frequently in 2022 and started hitting line drive lasers to all fields, with his peak exit velocity topping out at 114 mph off the bat. Neto finds a way to make lots of contact despite his cacophonous swing, which is enough to project him as an everyday second baseman. He generates bigger exit velocity than his size would imply, but because he tends to offer at pitchers pitches, it has resulted in a groundball rate around the 50% mark. Hamstring issues aside, Merrill is a pretty good bet to stay at shortstop. Of the teenage hitters on the list, Zavalas feel to hit is probably the most polished. Prospect status is a factor, to be sure, but this list strives to be much more than that. OF Bryson Ware An experienced outfielder, Ware returns for his third year at Auburn.

Eder was a tantalizing but inconsistent high school prospect who at times would sit 94-97 mph, but often with scattershot control. As explosive as most of his body is, Veens hands are not, and he tends to be long into the hitting zone. Below is our list of the top 100 prospects in baseball. The junior right-hander figures to get some starts for this talented club, especially with Teddy McGraws uncertainty. Frelicks style of hitting should enable doubles (and some triples) pop, but there isnt likely to be any kind of over-the-fence power here, so little that one could argue Frelick belongs south of the 50 FV tier even if he were a lock to stay in center field. After a slow start to 2022, Volpe hit .273/.355/.502 with Double-A Somerset from May through August and earned a late-season call up to Scranton. He takes a little while to get his legs churning, but once hes moving, hes a plus runner and has generated some home-to-first times in the neighborhood of 4.1-4.2 seconds.

Increased changeup emphasis, which was already evident during Williams first instructs, has occurred in pro ball, and while Williams meal ticket is still his mid-90s fastball, which he rips past hitters at the letters, he has three viable weapons right now and might have a fourth as his changeup develops. The Rebels have a tricky week on tap, with Louisiana Tech coming to town for a pair of midweek games and then a trip to Minnesota to take on a trio of Big Ten opponentsincluding another game against Maryland. Despite some struggles for the Cowboys offense, Mendham stood out, slashing .333/.375/.600 with a homer and a double. Hes as likely to make an incredible play as he is to botch a routine one.

The Razorbacks this weekend welcome Wright State, the Horizon League favorite, to Baum-Walker Stadium. A big-league ready, mid-rotation starter, Waldichuks arsenal also includes a changeup that he finishes with remarkable precision, but which he reserves almost exclusively for right-handed opponents (hes only thrown one changeup to a big-league lefty). Hassell doesnt have premium ball-striking power and is probably a corner outfielder, so the contact piece of his profile needs to rebound in a big way for him to continue projecting as a regular. His internal clock is precise and allows him to make fundamentally uncompromised throws to first with confidence because he knows hes going to beat the runner there. Having started 2022 with the Yankees Triple-A affiliate, Wesneski was shipped to Chicago as part of the Scott Effross trade. 10StanfordPac-122CA112223031 He still has some relief risk.

His fastball velocity is down, in the 92-94 mph range, a far cry from Priesters upper-90s peak. He projects as a contact-oriented everyday shortstop, though one scouting director we spoke with for this list still wants to see what hed look like on the mound. Elko, already a popular and accomplished player in college baseball, was elevated to cult hero status late last season, when he played on a torn ACL and thrived, hitting seven of his 16 total home runs after the injury.

He doesnt have huge raw juice (his peak exit velos are in the 106-108 mph range a bit shy of big league average, but still good for a player Arroyos age), and his bat-to-ball and chase rate stats are comfortably below average, but Arroyo lifts the baseball with remarkable consistency.
