2017 Top Prospects

Alexander Almonte  OF - 2017 - Lawrence, MA
Northern Essex CC

Though he's uncommitted, Almonte has all the tools and looks like a high level prospect on several fronts. Physically built at 6-foot-1, 190-pounds, Almonte retains plenty of looseness as he posted a 6.65 60-yard dash and threw 85 from the outfield. His biggest tool however is his righthanded bat and in particular the easy strength and carry he's able to generate off the barrel.

Joseph Vail  LHP - 2017 - Cromwell, CT
Le Moyne

Vail, a strongly built lefthanded pitcher at 6-foot-2, 190-pounds, turned in the best fastball velocity of the event as he ran his fastball up to 85 mph throughout his outing. His arm action is short and quick and the delivery is a simple one that's easy to repeat, allowing for Vail to consistently show four distinct pitches for strikes.

Isaiah Mirabal  C - 2017 - Bayside, NY
Connors State College

Mirabal excelled defensively behind the plate both in drills and live action as he popped an event best 1.86 and showed big arm strength with a top throw of 79 mph.

He also uses his physical strength well in his righthanded swing and connected for a loud and long home run in game to dead center field.

Luis DeLeon  SS - 2017 - Providence, RI
Uncommitted

DeLeon started off his showcase by running a 6.77 60-yard dash and he was just warming up as he continued to make noise with his righthanded swing.

Jared Vega  RHP - 2017 - Stratford, NJ
Rutgers, State University(NJ), Camden

Justin Files  OF - 2017 - Braintree, MA
Uncommitted

Joe Prisco  RHP - 2017 - Pound Ridge, NY
NYU

Prisco showed off one of the better fastballs of the event, regularly hitting 84 mph, but almost as impressive was the heavy and late life he was able to generate down in the zone.

Patrick Rauseo  2B - 2017 - Hudson, NH
