Florida PG Super25 Scout Notes


14u PG Super25 Florida Super Qualifier

Athletic and comfortable on the mound, Cole Stephens (2022, Ocala, Fla.) pitched 2 1/3 innings. His fastball sits 67-73 mph and mixes in an 11-to-5 curveball at 60-64 mph. He located his two pitches and was around the plate while working fast. There was athleticism to his three-quarters delivery with projection.

A pair of SBO – Florida 14u teammates had a productive day at the plate against Florida Bats Scout Team. Second baseman Edian Y Negron Lindor (2021, Clermont, Fla.) went 2-for-3 with a run scored. He showed off his speed in his first at-bat with a bunt base hit, followed by a line drive single into left field the next time up. Lindor plays a solid second base.

Josean Sanchez (2021, Carolina, Puerto Rico) played first base for SBO, and like Lindor, also went 2-for-3. Sanchez has quick movements on the field and can run. Smaller in stature, he has room to grow and will continue to further develop.

In two morning games for Kangaroo Court Roos National, shortstop Zack Crawford (2022, Trinity, Fla.) picked up a few hits. Hitting with a slightly opened stance, Crawford creates good pre-pitch rhythm at the plate. He has quick hands through the zone and makes solid contact. Crawford should continue to grow, and his athleticism will allow him to further develop.

Pitching a five-inning shutout for Florida Bats Scout Team was righthanded pitcher Kevin Martinez (2023, Cape Coral, Fla.) He has some present strength in his legs and has projectability on the mound. Sitting 74-78 mph with his fastball, Martinez stayed in a comfort zone of 75 mph and attacked the strike zone. He spun a curveball with down movement at 63-64 mph. He racked up seven strikeouts in five innings.

Alex Morrin (2021, Palm Harbor, Fla.) showed promise on the mound for Kangaroo Court. The 5-foot-8 righthander touched 76 mph with his fastball. Weighing only 150-pounds, Morrin has room to grow and he flashed potential as a pitcher. His breaking ball was more slurvy at 62 mph.

Morrin’s teammate Chase Maiden (2022, Clearwater, Fla.) flashed leather and swung the bat well against SWFL STARZ. Playing second base, Maiden made a really nice sliding backhanded pick, then in one fluid motion, sprung to his feet and flipped the ball to his shortstop for a force out. At the plate, Maiden went 2-for-3 with an RBI.

The middle-of-the-order bat for SWFL STARZ Christopher Burch (2022, Lehigh Acres, Fla.) collected a few hits against Florida Bats. In his first at bat, Burch drilled a triple into right-center field. A catcher with power potential, Burch showed he can impact the baseball.

Michael Graziano (2023, Naples, Fla.) scored two runs out of the leadoff spot for Florida Bats. The first pitch he saw in the game was driven over the left fielder’s head for a triple. Athletic with room to grow and fill out, Graziano is an intriguing follow. He moves well on the field and almost came away with a terrific, Jim Edmonds-esque diving catch in center field.

Equally athletic, Tanner Lowe (2022, Fort Myers, Fla.) was one of the stars of the game for SWFL STARZ. Going 2-for-3 with a double and two RBI, the third baseman swings a quick bat. Once he starts filling out, Lowe has gap-to-gap power potential. Playing the line, Lowe fielded a short hop on a backhand slide, got up and threw an accurate strike to the first baseman across the diamond.

Florida Bats catcher Jake Mueller (2023, Cape Coral, Fla.) went 2-for-2 including a double driven well over the left fielder’s head. He got an elevated pitch inside and pulled his hands through to drive the ball. His hits have carry on them with pull side power.

Noah Palmese (2021, Seminole, Fla.) pitched very well for Kangaroo Court Roos, working seven strong innings, allowing just two runs off five hits. Palmese is a projectable 5-foot-11, 155-pound pitcher with repeatable mechanics. His fastball velocity got up to 77 mph and he mixed in a solid curveball at 64-67 mph.

First baseman Dewon Brazelton (2022, Gotha, Fla.) had a productive day at the plate for Team Orlando Bolts, going 2-for-3 with a double and run scored against Kangaroo Court. Standing an imposing 6-foot-2, 210-pounds, Brazelton showed his ability to drive the baseball.

Bolts teammate Greg Pettay (2022, Clermont, Fla.) swung a hot bat in the semifinals and championship game. Against Kangaroo Court, Pettay went 1-for-3 with a run scored. The dynamic leadoff hitter for the Bolts has a line drive approach and does a good job finding ways to get on base. In the championship game against Gulf Coast Fury, Pettay went 3-for-3 with an RBI.

Hitting in a loaded lineup for Gulf Coast Fury, Scott Edwards (2022, Fort Myers, Fla.) had his turn to be the offensive performer. Going 2-for-2 with a double and two RBI, Edwards helped lead the Fury to a championship game victory over the Bolts. Standing 5-foot-10, 155-pounds, Edwards has athleticism and quick hands through the hitting zone.

15u PG Super25 Florida Super Qualifier

Some solid young talent was on display in the Super 25 Florida Super Qualifier. Two clubs, Baseball University, from the Greater Tampa area and SWFL Nation from Fort Myers, met twice on Tuesday, once in pool play and once in the championship game. After 14 innings only one run separated the clubs, with Baseball University scoring in the bottom of the seventh to secure a one-run victory.

The most valuable player of the 15u Super 25 tournament was Baseball University’s scrappy two-hole hitting second baseman, Connor Tootle (2021, Clearwater, Fla.). Tootle was flawless in the field. He has very quick feet, soft hands, and an accurate arm.  Offensively, he uses a middle-of-the field approach and a flat bat path to spray hits all over the diamond. He reached base four times in the championship game and drove home the winner in the bottom of the seventh.

Jac Caglianone (2021, Tampa, Fla.) is the impressive 6-foot-4, 186-pound lefthanded swinging three-hole hitter for BU. Hitting out of a slightly open stance, Caglianone sees pitches deep in the zone and shows potential for gap-to-gap power as he matures. His bat path has slight lift at contact. He also shows a sound ability to recognize pitches and keep his hands inside the ball.

Baseball University also brought a couple of solid catchers to the tournament. One of those was Chris Sabatino (2021, Dunedin, Fla.), a rising sophomore at Clearwater Central Catholic. The 6-foot, 185-pound, solidly built Sabatino has soft hands and a quick transfer and release from behind the plate. Offensively, he shows potential for power from the right side. He hits from a slightly open stance and has a power hitter’s lift at contact.

Harrison Povey (2021, Indian Rocks Beach, Fla.) displayed skills in the outfield and on the mound for BU. The 6-foot-3, 160-pound outfielder showed above average range in center field, and a strong and accurate arm. Offensively, he takes a middle-of-the-field mentality to the dish and shows a solid understanding of the strike zone. Where he shines, however, is on the mound. He shut down a very good SWFL offense with three outstanding innings of relief in the championship game. His high three-quarters arm slot and simple, repeatable mechanics allowed his 80-82 mph fastball to have plus late life at the plate. He combined that fastball with a very impressive 12-to-6 breaking curveball that showed advanced break and depth.

The SWFL Nation club also had a very impressive two-day run in the tournament and was every bit the equal of the BU club. Pacing the SWFL club was the tournament’s most valuable pitcher, Allen Guerrero (2021, Naples, Fla.). Guerrero was outstanding in pitching SWFL into the Baseball University game with a one-hit, nine strikeout, shutout in early action Tuesday. The 5-foot-11, 145-pound righty used nothing but well-placed fastballs that ranged from 80 to 82 mph. His ability to command both sides of the plate and all four quadrants was quite impressive.

Andrew Sundean (2021, Lakeland, Fla.) is an impressive 6-foot-4, 180-pound rising sophomore at McKeel Academy of Technology. He is a sturdy catcher for SWFL and has some tools behind the plate that appear ready to take his game to another level. He has soft hands and receives each pitch like a veteran. In spite of his size, he has very quick transfer skills and a short quick and accurate throwing arm. Offensively, he is imposing. He hits out of slightly open stance and can drive the ball from gap-to-gap with authority.  The future looks very bright for this young backstop.

Sundean’s teammate at McKeel is 6-foot-3, 185-pound, outfielder/pitcher, Sawyer Hawks (2021, Lakeland, Fla.). Hawks shows a solid understanding of positioning and footwork in right field. He has a very strong and accurate arm. Offensively, he is a big swinger who shows the capacity to ultimately develop into a middle-of-the order run producer. Where he is most impressive is on the mound. The powerfully built right-hander was running his fastball up to the plate at between 81 and 83 mph with some riding late life. His curveball, that he throws with a deceptive 12-to-6 break, also shows promise.

Jake Gibson (2021, Fort Myers. Fla.) is an athletic outfielder who displays playable plus speed and a knack for making consistent contact and using his plus speed to pressure defenses. He uses a contact first, flat bat path approach to spray line drives to all fields. He has a playable arm in the outfield and gets outstanding jumps on any hits coming his way.

The third-place club, Gulf Coast Fury, also had some young players who showed promise. Luke Mitchell, (2021, Lehigh Acres, Fla.) is a rising sophomore at Lehigh Senior HS. He both caught and pitched for the Fury during the tournament and was a very capable lead off hitter. His 46-pitch, one-hitter helped lead the Fury to a run-rule victory in the early game on Tuesday. He is a strike thrower who works both sides of the plate with a fastball that is consistently clocked in the 74-76 mph range. Behind the dish is where he was especially solid for the Fury. He is a take-charge receiver who shows grit and determination in handling his pitching staff. At the dish, he displays a gap-to-gap mentality using a flat path and the patience of a player with far more experience.

Carter Lane (2021, Fort Myers, Fla.) also displayed some solid fundamental skills for the Fury. The 6-foot, 155-pound athletically built Lane showed plus speed and quickness throughout the tournament. Hitting from the left-side, the Fury two-hole hitter sprayed the ball to all parts of the field and aggressively ran the bases. Defensively, the slick-fielding shortstop showed quick feet, soft hands, and an accurate arm.

MLK West Scout Notes: Days 3-4

MLK West Scout Notes: Days 1-2 Markus Chandler, RHP, Westside HS Class of 2027 A little on the undersized side as a sub 6 footer, but Chandler can generate some velo and spin.  Spun 3 frames of hitless ball for Spects National with zero walks and 6 strikeouts.  Committed to Kansas State, the righty ran the fastball to 92, living 89-92 pumping the zone with 75 percent strikes.  Looked like two different breaking balls, with the SL 80/81 (spin in 2500’s) and curveball 75/76.  No hard contact, little contact at all off the righty in this dominant outing. To follow up the pitching performance, Chandler swung the bat well on Championship Monday (Trademark Pending) with 5 RBI and three hits on the day, regularly on the barrel.  Trevor Alons, RHP, Centennial HS Class of 2028 Lean framed sophomore with a quick, whippy arm.  Playing up a few classes, you might...

Top 100 Collegiate Freshmen | Top 100 Collegiate Sophomores | Top 100 Collegiate Juniors This senior board is one of the deepest we’ve assembled in years. From experienced weekend arms with power stuff, to proven position players coming off loud 2025 spring seasons, to former prospects returning from injury and looking to reestablish their status, impact players are scattered throughout the group. Headlining the board is Maika Niu, now at Arkansas after a strong season at Marshall and an MVP summer on the Cape. Nui is a high-level athlete in center field and a legitimate offensive force who should slide seamlessly into the heart of the Razorbacks’ lineup. Close behind are two premium arms in Ole Miss’s Hunter Elliott and Kentucky’s Jaxon Jelkin. Elliott is coming off a monster 2025 spring, going 10–3 with a 2.94 ERA and 104 strikeouts, and...
