PG Spring Frost Scout Notes

Photo: Bryce Clavon (Perfect Game)
Bryce Clavon (2024, Hampton, Ga.) is a former 13u Select Festival player who showed huge upside as one of the top athletes in his class. He played a rangy shortstop with some twitch as he bounced around. At the plate, he proved to have complete barrel control as he hammered baseballs. He turned on one down the 3B line and ended up scoring on an inside-the-park home run as he cruised around the bases with grace. He also took the mound late on Sunday and was up to 83 mph further proving his skillset. Someone to monitor very closely as he matures because with his athleticism and tools, he will be an elite player one day.

Caleb Brown (2024, Lilburn, Ga.) continued his reign as one of the top hitting shortstops in his class. He carries his lanky, athletic build extremely well and has hand-eye coordination that is well beyond his young age. He recorded a tournament best 10 hits on the weekend with six RBI. Three of those hits were extra base hits and he stole three bags as well. With his bat and fielding abilities, he is quickly moving his way up to one of the premier shortstops in his class. He will be someone to keep a very close eye on as he gets older.

Aidan Petrocco (2024, Johns Creek, Ga.) had an outstanding weekend as he swung it with the best of them. The right-handed hitter generated some pop as he fired his hips and got the barrel out front in a hurry. He tallied six hits on the weekend with five RBI and did not strike out a single time. His bat is by far his best tool and he will be someone who will continue to make noise in the box as he is fundamentally sound and has an advanced approach already.

Porter Berryman (2025 Lilburn, Ga.) showed some upside as the young left-handed pitcher entered the game and pounded the strike zone. He utilized drop-and-drive actions as he went on to fill up the zone with a fastball that was up to the low-70s mph. He also mixed in a depthy curveball that he landed for strikes at times. He only allowed three hits in his four-inning outing during the Championship game.

Max Caldwell (2024, Marietta, Ga.) played a solid third base as he kept the baseball in front of him and proved to have some feel for the position. He also got it done in the box as the right-handed hitter took a simple approach to the box. Caldwell was short to the baseball and long through extension as he sprayed the baseball hard on a line all around the ballpark.

Jackson Davis (2023, Atlanta, Ga.) flashed a smaller, athletic frame and he put it to great use. The lead-off hitter scrapped his way into finding hits while showing complete confidence in the box late in counts. He also played an athletic shortstop and was a natural leader of the team. With his hand-eye coordination and fundamentally sound game, he will be someone to keep an eye on as he physically fills out.

Israel Rosseter (2024, Decatur, Ga.) showcased a fast, whippy arm on the mound as the right-hander entered as relief in the semi-final game. He had great feel for the corners and changed eye levels. He worked downhill and went right after hitters as he topped out at 73 mph. He went on to strike out a couple and gave up a number of hits while only allowing one earned run. He takes a gamer mentality to the mound and is someone who will continue to advance.

Warren Morris (2024, Kennesaw, Ga.) is a physical catcher who proved he could get it done behind the plate and in the box. He was comfortable spotting up behind the plate and did a great job of keeping baseballs in the dirt in front of him. He also had a strong arm and was rarely tested by baserunners. In the box, he had a powerful swing as he looked to generate some lift. He found the barrel with consistency and tallied multiple extra base hits on the weekend.

Arnold Abernathy (2024, Marietta, Ga.) continued his hot streak at the dish as he showcased his versatility. He played a great shortstop early in the weekend while hitting in the lead-off spot and then was moved to the outfield and to the middle of the order. He thrived in both places. He went on to record a hit in every game and proved himself to be a legit utility guy. He also has great instincts on the paths with some speed to compliment it as well.

Michael Zito (2024, Milton, Ga.) showcased a large, filling out frame as the right-handed pitcher took the mound with intent to dominate. He worked in the upper-70s while topping out at 80 mph showing plenty more in the tank. He utilized fluid, easy mechanics with a fast arm. He had a hammer of a breaking ball that got plenty of swings and misses. He tunneled the baseball extremely well for a young man and is someone who has nothing but upside as the pitchability is already showing. His athleticism was not only on the mound as he recorded multiple hits on the weekend.

Gabriel Chigwere (2024, Milton, Ga.) flashed a big, strong frame with a high waist and sturdy lower half. The sweet swinging left-handed hitter proved he could generate some bat speed as he went on to square up the baseball. Although he is a bit raw at the dish, the strength is very visible, and he is someone who has some power potential. He also played a clean first base this weekend.

Landon Cole (2024, Cartersville, Ga.) was one of the most advanced catchers in the event this weekend. He was extremely impressive as he flashed soft hands and a great feel for the corners. He also had a strong arm as he proved that throwing a runner out late in the playoffs on Sunday. At the dish, he utilized a short, simple cut to the baseball as he drove it around the park on a line. He came up clutch in the playoffs Sunday by driving in a couple runs to kick off their quarterfinal contest. With his abilities both behind the dish and at the box, he will be someone to keep a very close eye on down the road as he proves to be valuable.

Andrew Pitts (2024, Hoover, Ala.) showcased a bigger, growing frame that projects well. He played some corner outfield and moved cleanly around the baseball. He best tool would be his bat as he generated some leverage at the plate with intent to go yard. He was very aggressive in his approach and consistently created loud wood. He hammered one during the playoffs back up the middle that was some of the loudest contact all weekend. Look for him to be a power hitter as he matures physically.

Eric Parker (2024, Snellville, Ga.) stood out as one of the more projectable builds in the event. With a lanky build, he proved to be uber athletic with twitch in all aspects of the game. The middle infielder proved he had some range and was very confident with his fielding actions. He has a strong arm proving his ability to play shortstop if needed. He hammered the baseball gap-to-gap as he utilized strong, fast hands. He flew out deep to centerfield Sunday and although it was an out, he got his point across that he is a power threat. He also hopped on the mound and was up to 82 mph. Keep an eye on this young man as his athleticism shines thru in everything he does.

Jon Holcomb (2024 Lilburn, Ga.) got the start early in the playoffs and had one of the better outings of the event. The right-handed pitcher utilized a bigger frame as he worked downhill with an athletic delivery. His fastball was up to 72 mph and he showed plenty more in the tank down the road. Holcomb also mixed in a slurvy curveball that he landed for strikes. He struck out three batters as he threw a five-inning, one-hit gem. He would ultimately go on to get the win and push his team further into the playoffs.

Parker Johnson (2024, Cumming, Ga.) threw an absolute gem in the playoffs on Sunday. The pitchability was visible to the naked eye as he did not have over-powering stuff but a simple arsenal that could not be figured out by opposing hitters. Johnson did a great job of getting ahead early in counts as he mixed up pitches landing them all for strikes. His fastball was up to 71 mph and he mixed in an 11-to-4 curveball that had hitters turning shoulders. He went on to give up just 2 hits as he struck out 3 in a complete seven inning game. The win would ultimately push his team to the Semifinals.

Chase Fralick (2024, Peachtree City, Ga.) was one of the more physical frames of the weekend as he played an athletic first base and pitched as well. At the dish, he utilized a simple cut as he generated some natural lift in the swing. He had five hits on the weekend with four RBI while proving he can go to all fields. He got the start in the semi-finals and the right-handed pitcher got straight to work. He threw four solid innings as he went right after hitters. He gave up three hits and no runs while striking out two. His fastball was up to 75 mph and he showed plenty more in the tank. Fralick will be someone to monitor as he stills shows two-way potential.

Bryce Herring (2024, Hampton, Ga.) is one of the more scrappy, high motor type guys from the event. The lead-off hitter showed ultimate confidence in the box as he threw hands at the baseball. He found the barrel often and recorded three hits on the weekend. He was also fundamentally sound on defense as the middle infielder made every play he was supposed to. He has a great gamer mentality that pushes his teammates around him to be better.

Battle For The Midwest Scout Notes

Perfect Game Staff

Gavin Johnson (2029, De Pere, Wisc.) handled the bat pretty well this weekend for his CBT Wolfpack 15u team that made a run into bracket play. Johnson is a left-handed hitting first baseman with a physical 6-foot-1, 200-pound frame, showing good physicality throughout the build. It’s a clean stroke from the left side, with feel to deliver the barrel on time and drive the ball working pull-side. He has a feel to rotate well, loading deep with the hands & turning well through contact to impact the baseball out in front. Johnson tallied four hits on the weekend, including 2 doubles and a triple. He plated 3 runs as well.   Devon Hester (2029, Chicago, Ill.) had a heck of a weekend for Chicago White Sox Ace 2029 Hunt.
