*College commitment information is submitted by players and college coaches
Kaleb Cowart
OF - 2010 - Adel, GA
Florida State
The high profile Cowart added strength over the fall and early winter, making his tool package even more impressive. If his switch-hitting power and swing consistency keep improving, scouts will start to put his 94 mph fastball in the background, just as Cowart seems to do in favor of playing shortstop.
Krey Bratsen
OF - 2010 - Bryan, TX
Texas A&M
Bratsen’s football career has kept his exposure to baseball at a minimum, like others at this event he had not swung a bat against live pitching since last year. He still made consistent contact and showed off his plus running ability. His tools standout, big time arm and speed. He’s a superior athlete who may have as impressive of defensive skills/tools in the outfield as we’ve seen in some time.
Wes Mugarian
RHP - 2010 - Pensacola, FL
Alabama
Mugarian’s improvement from last summer was one of the most notable stories of the showcase. He showed big, big power in batting practice, but his steady 91-92 mph fastball with Rivera type cutting action was even more impressive.
Andrew Toles
OF - 2010 - Fayetteville, GA
Tennessee
Toles will be among the best quick twitch athletes in the 2010 class and compares favorably to most of the high draft East Cobb outfielders from the last decade. He ran 6.49, can really handle the bat and has premium level defensive tools in centerfield.
Casey Mulholland
RHP - 2010 - Bradenton, FL
Mississippi
Mulholland threw 90-91 mph with his customary easy delivery and overhand release point and showed the potential for a plus change up. He’s a DI type outfield prospect as well.
Ralston Cash
RHP - 2010 - Cornelia, GA
Georgia
Cash throws easy and his 90 mph fastball has hard late diving life at the plate. His curveball and change up are very good pitches, but he pitches so effectively with his fastball that he doesn’t have to use them often.
Zach Alvord
IF - 2010 - Alpharetta, GA
Auburn
Alvord has been overlooked a bit among 2010 shortstops, but that should cease. His arm strength is top of the scale, he’s a 6.9 runner and he has as much power as you can expect to see in a middle infielder.
Andrew Blum
RHP - 2010 - Plano, TX
Richmond
Blum has a very quick arm that projects his present 87 mph fastball easily into the 90’s, plus a hard breaking curveball as a secondary pitch. His athletic ability is a big plus, as he runs 6.65, can hit and he is a high level outfield prospect, too.
Caleb Kellogg
RHP - 2010 - Bridge City, TX
Louisiana-Lafayette
Kellogg might be one of the best unrecognized athletes in the 2010 class. He threw 88 mph from the mound with two nasty breaking pitches, threw 95 mph from the outfield and was a top level hitting prospect. He’s also an all-state wide receiver in talent rich Louisiana football.
Jacob Tillotson
SS - 2010 - Lake City, FL
Florida/Santa Fe College
Switch-hitting shortstops with 90+ mph arms and some juice in their bats, especially from the left side of the plate, are hard to come by. Tillotson is also playing the game with the polish and instincts that you like to see in a young player.
Austen Smith
1B - 2010 - Cantonment, FL
Alabama
Smith played with a pulled quad, which hampered his looseness and agility, but his bat speed and power potential are obvious. He’s a deceptively good athlete for his size.
Tyler Dial
SS - 2010 - Phenix City, AL
Auburn
We’ve been watching Dial since he was in 8th grade and he keeps getting steadily better. His swing and bat speed looked improved from the last look and the 90+ arm strength from both the mound and shortstop was definitely still there.
Ryan Heuler
RHP - 2010 - Bradenton, FL
Wake Forest
Heuler is an athletic 6-4, 205 lb right hander who consistently pitches in the upper 80’s with a hard biting 77 mph curveball. His mechanics looked like they’ve smoothed out since last summer.
Dusty Isaacs
RHP - 2010 - Lebanon, OH
Georgia Tech
The 6-1, 185 lb Isaacs threw 90 mph from an easy arm action and had three quality off speed pitches, including both curveball and a slider, a rarity for a young pitcher.
Mason Williams
OF - 2010 - Winter Garden, FL
South Carolina
Williams is athletic (6.8 runner, 89 mph arm strength) but his big tool is his bat. The left handed hitter has consistently shown the ability to drive the ball to the gaps against the top pitcher’s in the country.
Dale Carey
OF - 2010 - Marietta, GA
Miami
Carey has an outstanding athletic build and strong present tools in 6.59 speed and a 91 mph outfield arm. He’s primarily a line drive gap hitter now but projects huge future power when he learns to turn on the ball.
Will Allen
C - 2010 - Gainesville, FL
Mississippi
Allen is plus strong at 6-3, 215 and has excellent bat speed and a long, loose swing that generates lift. As a catcher he has plus arm strength and the quickness/athletic ability to handle the position at a high level.
Sean O'Brien
IF - 2010 - Clearwater, FL
Florida State
The 6-3, 175 O’Brien seems athletic enough to stay at shortstop as he develops, but it’s his bat that could be really special. He hit a bomb in the Top Prospect Game and consistently showed bat speed and hitting ability the entire event.
Tim Remes
C - 2010 - Lauderhill, FL
Santa Fe College
Remes doesn’t look physical at 6-0, 175 but has the bat speed and power potential of a stronger player. His defensive skills are first rate, with quickness and top level arm strength. Remes also threw 88 mph off the mound.
Jacob May
SS - 2010 - Liberty Township, OH
Coastal Carolina
May is the son of former ML slugger and current Indians coach Lee May and the bloodlines show, especially with the bat. May is a quick twitch athlete, though, with 6.7 speed and sound infield actions that project best at second base.
Michael Carballo
OF - 2010 - Pembroke Pines, FL
South Florida
Carballo is a quick twitch 5-10 athlete with speed and arm strength and some juice in his bat. He’s a primary outfielder now, but showed catching tools and aptitude behind the plate and may have a higher ceiling at that position.
Tyler Moore
RHP - 2010 - Ormond Beach, FL
North Florida
Moore has a long, lean pitcher’s build at 6-4, 185 lbs with a clean and loose arm action. He pitched at 86-89 mph at the event with good spin on a 74 mph curveball.
Jose Dore
OF - 2010 - Kissimmee, FL
Florida State
Dore is a slender and wiry 6-1, 170 lbs but has a power hitter’s approach from the left side of the plate and the plus bat speed to use it. He also shows plus arm strength from right field.
Patrick McGavin
1B - 2010 - Spanish Fort, AL
Samford/Northwest Florida State College
McGavin throws 86 mph off the mound from the left side but his raw bat speed and power potential make him a better position prospect.
Brandon Hernandez
RHP - 2010 - Miami, FL
Uncommitted
Hernandez has long arms and legs for his height (6-1, 180) and loose, easy actions. His heavy fastball touched 88 mph and he showed one of the sharpest biting curveballs at the event.
Myles Smith
MIF - 2010 - Detroit, MI
Missouri
Smith is simply a top athlete and could end up on the mound or in the middle of the field somewhere. His shortstop actions, fundamentals and arm strength were surprisingly good for a player from the North during the winter.
Jeff Jackson
C - 2010 - Wauconda, IL
Wabash Valley College
Jackson ’s bat plays at any position; he has plus bat speed and a whippy, loose swing that promises big power in the future. How his arm strength and mechanics develop behind the plate will determine his future position.
Dominic Attanasio
OF - 2010 - Windermere, FL
Clemson
Attanasio is undersized at 5-8, 155 lbs, but has tools across the board. He’s a 6.8 runner with advanced skills and arm strength in centerfield and has a quick left handed bat with some power. He also throws 86 mph off the mound from the left side.
Will Kendall
LHP - 2010 - Marietta, GA
Auburn
Kendall is a classic three pitch southpaw with a fastball that was consistently 85-87 mph with run/sink, a sharp biting 72 mph curveball and deceptive 78 mph change up.
Brett Winger
IF - 2010 - Windermere, FL
Michigan
Winger as a profile pitcher’s build at 6-3, 190 lbs and projects to get bigger and stronger. He topped out at 88 mph with tight spin on his curveball.
Ricky Knapp
RHP - 2010 - Port Charlotte, FL
Florida Gulf Coast
Knapp has a loose, athletic frame, which should translate to more future velocity on his present mid 80’s fastball. He has an excellent change up and plus command potential, not surprising considering his father is the Detroit Tigers pitching coach.
Andrew Hendrix
RHP - 2010 - Cincinnati, OH
Notre Dame
Hendrix is a two-way prospect, with a heavy 87 mph present fastball and polished pitching style to go with big power at the plate.
James "Chad" Reeves
RHP - 2010 - Mobile, AL
South Alabama
Reeves threw 85-87 mph with minimal effort and one of the better change ups at the event. He also showed plus power at the plate and could be a two-way player at the next level.
Carlos Asuaje
MIF - 2010 - Weston, FL
Nova Southeastern
Asuaje has a similar build (5-8, 155 lbs) to 2008 top prospect Rolando Gomez, but more importantly, a similar hitting approach from the left side. He’s also a 6.9 runner with very good defensive tools that profile at second base.
Stafford Booth
3B - 2010 - Madison, AL
Shelton State CC
Booth is a 6-2, 190 lb left handed hitting third baseman with solid tools across the board. He’s a 6.7 runner who throws in the mid 80’s off the mound and has a smooth, loose swing with present gap power.
Travis Dean
RHP - 2010 - Newton, MA
Kennesaw State
Dean has an athletic and projectable 6-5, 170 lb build and a loose, whippy arm action from a ¾’s release point. His fastball topped at 87 mph with very good running life.
Benjamin Overman
RHP - 2010 - Orlando, FL
Seminole State College
Overman isn’t strong yet at 6-3, 170 lbs, but he has a quick, whippy arm and very good feel for movement and changing speed/location on an 87 mph fastball.
James Harris
MIF - 2010 - Woodstock, GA
Uncommitted
Harris showed a strong left handed bat with power potential and at 6-2, 190 lbs and lean, he should keep getting stronger. He showed the ability to play both middle infield and the outfield at a high level.
William Russ
OF - 2010 - Shreveport, LA
Uncommitted
Russ is a slender 6-4, 170 lbs and has a natural hitting rhythm and bat head control usually found is smaller, more compact athletes. With 6.9 speed, his power/speed tools should develop nicely.
Alexander Cruz
MIF - 2010 - Woodstock, GA
Georgia Tech
Cruz plays middle infield now, but projects as a third baseman with plus arm strength. He has a sound hitting approach with present bat speed and should hit with lots of power down the road.
Jeff Kammer
C - 2010 - Wildwood, MO
Uncommitted
Kammer has consistently put up 1.8 area pop times at PG events and he puts his throws on the bag. He has a high average line drive approach at the plate and can get the ball to the gaps.
Bo Logan
LHP - 2010 - Naples, FL
Florida Atlantic
Logan is 5-10, 165 lbs and topped out at 86 mph, but had two quality breaking balls in a 70 mph curveball and very sharp 77 mph slider. He pitches like a veteran and hitters had no chance against him.
Andrew Valencia
C - 2010 - Miami, FL
South Florida
Valencia has a “Molina” type catching profile, with a strong/heavy lower half but very quick one-spot actions and athletic looseness. His arm strength and power potential stand out.
Tyler Noland
OF - 2010 - Concord, TN
Uncommitted
Noland has a solid set of overall physical tools, including 6.7 speed and a mid 80’s fastball from the mound. He shows very good raw bat speed and aggressiveness at the plate but with some correctable mechanical issues to work through.
Taylor Ratliff
OF - 2010 - Perry, FL
Florida
The 6-2, 160 lb Ratliff has very sound defensive skills and tools at shortstop and 6.6 speed. He swings the bat from the left side and has quick hands, although he’ll need to gain strength to consistently drive the ball.
Preston Packrall
SS - 2010 - Tampa, FL
High Point
Packrall is right on the fence between being a better position and pitching prospect. He throws 84-87 mph from the mound and has a solid hitting approach with good bat speed at the plate.
Joseph Drum
OF - 2010 - Nixa, MO
Uncommitted
The 6-2, 185 lb Drum’s athletic tools are playable but he can really hit. His hands are very quick and he’ll turn on high velocity fastballs and pull them hard.
Corey Janson
C - 2010 - Weston, FL
Miami
The 6-3, 190 lb Janson was one of the top defensive catchers at the showcase and combines quickness with a strong arm. His bat speed and hitting approach plays at the next level.
Jeff Harvill
LHP - 2010 - Keithville, LA
Arkansas
Harvill is an effective LHP who projects well and already pitches in the mid 80's. Also runs well and needs to be watched.
Dwight Smith
OF - 2011 - Peachtree City, GA
Georgia Tech
Smith’s raw bat speed and power are extremely impressive and he’s already proved himself as a performer at national events against top level pitching. The big league bloodlines are always a plus, as well.
Drake Roberts
MIF - 2011 - Washington, TX
Oklahoma
Roberts isn’t big framed but he’s strong for his age and has quick twitch actions. He has very mature and polished baseball skills as well, along with outstanding bat speed and the ability to drive the ball hard to all fields.
Andrew Chin
LHP - 2011 - Newton, MA
Boston College
Chin has outstanding pitching mechanics for any level, let alone a 2011 southpaw. His fastball is steady at 87-88 mph and he throws a sharp 74 mph curveball. He projects physically at a lean 6-1, 180 lbs and will just keep getting better.
Hudson Boyd
RHP - 2011 - Fort Myers, FL
Florida
Boyd has huge arm strength to match his big 6-2, 245 lb body, throwing 88-92 off the mound with a sharp curveball. He also has plus power at the plate and overall strongly resembles top 2009 RHP/1B prospect Matt Hobgood.
Michael Bradshaw
OF - 2011 - Crestwood, NY
St. John's/Howard College

Brady Anderson
MIF - 2011 - Arcadia, FL
Florida Gulf Coast

Austin Slater
OF - 2011 - Jacksonville, FL
Stanford

Alex Roberts
RHP - 2011 - Dalton, GA
Georgia State/Middle Georgia State University
Roberts could be moving up the prospect lists as he fills out his 6-1, 170 lb frame. He has a very loose, long arm action, a fastball that topped out at 87 mph and a hammer of a curveball at 73 mph.
Ben Joseph

George Gugino
3B - 2011 - Pembroke Pines, FL

Ryan Meyer
RHP - 2011 - Oviedo, FL
University of Central Florida
Meyer has a very long and projectable pitcher’s frame and looks taller than his listed 6-5, 195. His arm works well and his fastball topped out at 86 mph, with a mid 70’s slider as his breaking ball.

Chase Darhower
SS - 2011 - Niceville, FL

Josh Gordon
1B - 2011 - Niceville, FL
Uncommitted
Gordon will be limited to 1B defensively, but the 6-2, 220 lb right handed hitter can flat mash, both for power and for average.
Gabriel Aurrecoechea
OF - 2012 - Miramar, FL
Florida Atlantic
Despite his age and 5-8, 140 lb frame, Aurrecoechea had excellent raw bat speed and a very advanced idea how to hit from the left side of the plate.
