2014 National Underclass Main Event

Sunday BP Highlights -- Part 4
12/28/2014 7:03:19 PM
Brandon Brookins (2016 C, Palmetto Bay, FL) had a calm and balanced hitting approach from the right side with some present bat speed and lots of projection for more in the future.

Eric Blanc (2016 1B, Temple Terrace, FL) packs plenty of strength in his 6-foot-2, 230-pound build and gets lots of extra leverage from good lower half rotation.  His swing is on the long side but when you see a left handed hitter put one out into the RCF bullpen, you know he has big power.

Akil Baddoo (2016 OF, Conyers, GA) has a limited trigger to start his left handed swing but still generates lots of bat speed and drove the ball hard.  Get him some shift and earlier hand movement and he could really be driving the ball.

Miles Jones (2016 1B, Fayetteville, GA) was one of many big and very strong hitters on Purple (Team 27) that stood out in BP.  He didn't even look big for this team at 6-foot-3, 220-pounds.  He has a singular pull and lift approach from the left side but executes it well and puts the ball high in the air with tons of backspin.

Franco Perdomo (2016 3B, Pembroke Pines, FL) has very strong hands and a simple and direct right handed swing.  He was one of the more polished right handed hitters of the day and took a very good round.
 
John Malcom (2018 LHP, West Bloomfield, MI) hasn't thrown yet but the freshman is going to have to be very impressive on the mound to be graded out as a better pitching than hitting prospect.  He attacks the ball hard from the left side with very good raw bat speed and power potential.
