Jordan Swagerty is a 2008 C/P with a 6'1'', 175 lb. frame from Sachse, TX who attends Prestonwood Christian Academy. He has a lean and athletic build with a good combination of looseness and strength. Swagerty is one of the top 2-way prospects in the country. He didn't catch in HS this past spring because he played on the same team with 2006 Aflac All American catcher Cameron Rupp, but Swagerty is an All American catcher himself. He is very quick and athletic behind the plate. His throw/pop times in Cincinnati can be disregarded as he pitched the day before they were recorded. Swagerty is a switch hitter who shows better hitting mechanics and bat speed from the left side. He has very quick wrists and a fluid, easy swing and shows gap to gap type of power. As good as he is catching, he was probably more impressive on the mound in Cincinnati. Swagerty showed three average to plus pitches and great command and feel for the strike zone. Some of the best hitters in the country took some really poor hacks against him and he dominated. Swagerty's fastball was 88-92 mph with excellent life at the plate. His curveball was nasty up to 78 mph with sharp downer break and very tight spin. His change up had heavy sinking action and very good deception as well. Swagerty just toyed with the hitters and overmatched them. Scouts aren't going to look at a slender 6-1 pitcher quite the way they would at a switch-hitting catcher, but they'll have to make some sort of decision. Swagerty is a good student off the field. Selected to 2007 Aflac All-American team.

Jordan Swagerty is a 2008 C/P/IF with a 6'1'', 160 lb. frame from Sachse TX, who attends Prestonwood Christian Academy. He is a young 2008 player who we will be hearing plenty about in the future. Swagerty has an athletic body with good projection and some present strength. He has very good defensive skills, with quick and balanced actions and soft hands receiving the ball. He threw 79 mph in drills with a best pop time of 1.89, so he has plus arm strength and the ability to use it. Offensively, Swagerty is a switch hitter. From the right side he has a balanced approach with fair bat speed and a line drive swing plane. He keeps it simple and squares up to the ball and looks to hit the ball where it's pitched. From the left side, Swagerty has much better bat speed and lift in his swing. He attacks the ball with a more involved, aggressive swing and can drive it with some power. Just to show that he has tools across the board, Swagerty took the mound and threw 88 mph with a power 77 mph slurve type curveball. Swagerty is a national level follow with premium tools and some good skills as well. He is also a very good student.
