14u Northeast: Day 3-4 Notes

Andrew Snyder



Marcos Suarez (2022, Lodi, N.J.), a 5-foot-9, 145-pound righthanded pitcher, tossed 5 2/3 innings for the win against Batting 1.000 Seminoles on Sunday morning. Suarez’ fastball sat in the high-70s, topping at 79 mph. Suarez also mixed in a mid-60s breaking ball. While he had some early command issues, Marcos settled in and finished the outing strong with seven strikeouts. Suarez seemed to be more comfortable working in the stretch where he had better tempo, working quickly with a medium leg kick and three-quarters arm slot, throwing slightly across his body. His motion seems to create some added deception for him.

Joe Richetti (2023, Holbrook, N.Y.), a 5-foot-5, 130-pound shortstop, showed off impressive glove work on Sunday for Team Steel Gold. He has great range and footwork, along with a strong and accurate throwing arm that produces carry. Richetti makes all the required plays and makes them look easy, using an impressive first step that began seemingly while the ball was still in the hitting zone. Although he has a slight build, Richetti managed to barrel balls all weekend long, finishing the event 7-for-13 with three walks, six runs scored, and five RBI in seven games. As he grows and fills out, Richetti has a chance to become an elite level infielder.

Ryan Jones (2023, Grosse Pointe, Mich.), a 6-foot-3, 175-pound catcher and righthanded pitcher, had another big game for Little Caesars Baseball Sunday, adding to an already impressive weekend. Jones started the morning on the mound and threw a five-inning shutout to get the win, allowing only two hits and striking out seven. He has a large and lean frame with present strength and plenty of room to add more. A smooth, fluid motion with a short and quick arm circle that allows Jones to create a lot of backspin and some late life at the plate. At the plate Jones has a strong and athletic set up with a long, powerful swing. Jones finished the tournament 5-for-12 with two doubles and seven RBIs to go along with four stolen bases. Between the raw power and the frame, Jones has the foundation to develop into a productive player at the next level.

Shaun McMillan (2023, Freeport, N.Y.), a 6-foot-1, 200-pound righthanded pitcher and first baseman, led the way for a 5-0 Team United Beast win over the South Troy Dodgers on Sunday afternoon. McMillan, a 13u eligible player, was 1-for-2 with two walks and a towering homerun to deep center field. With a large athletic frame, he has a balanced set-up with a high hand position, using a hip slide to load his body as he takes a slightly open stride towards the pitcher. McMillan has a long and powerful swing with above average bat speed and strong hands. While the raw power is present, his strike zone recognition has room to develop, and with some polish he could become a big-time power hitter at the next level.



Joseph Tomonto (2022, Boca Raton, FL) is a 6-foot, 175-pound infielder and outfielder, ranked 159 nationally in his class by Perfect Game. Tomonto didn’t disappoint on Sunday for the AD Titans. He played all over the field this weekend, showing big-time arm strength with carry and good hands in the infield as well as great range. It’s hard to find a spot on the field that he doesn’t excel at with his defensive versatility. At the plate, Tomonto has an athletic set up with good balance and a high hand position. He uses a medium leg kick and a slight hand hitch as his load into a quick and powerful stroke. He showed easy power to all fields, keeping his hands inside the ball with an aggressive but disciplined approach.



Taj Farmer (2022, Farmingdale, N.Y.), a 6-foot-2, 165-pound righthanded pitcher and first basemen, has been an offensive standout through the entire tournament, but today impressed with his skills on the mound. Farmer has a long explosive body with wide shoulders and long arms with present strength. He has good arm strength, running the fastball up to 80 mph with late life and arm-side run from a three-quarters arm slot. Farmer used a mid-60s slider to keep opposing hitters honest. The slider has a chance to be a swing and miss pitch, as it has tight spin and late depth. When he fills out the frame and gets a little more consistent with his delivery Farmer has a chance to become a legitimate two-way prospect.



Carlos Martinez (2022, College Point, N.Y.), a 5-foot-10, 135-pound righthanded pitcher, was sharp in his semifinal start against the South Troy Dodgers on Monday. Martinez threw 3 1/3 innings, allowing one hit and striking out five. He has a long, thin frame with a loose, low three-quarters arm slot that plays at this level. He has a smooth, rhythmic motion and when he stays over the rubber and gets downhill has an explosive fastball that tops at 84 mph with late life. Martinez showed he can really spin the breaking ball. Martinez has plenty of room to add strength to his frame, and when he does has a chance to be a power arm for the next level.



Bryan Santana (2022, Ozone Park, N.Y.) a 5-foot-11, 175-pound righthanded pitcher, was impressive in a semifinal loss Monday against Team Beast United. He threw six innings, allowing three runs while striking out six against a potent Team Beast lineup. Santana has a slow, methodical delivery with a medium leg kick that he repeats well with an overhand release point. When he was able to keep his lower half from swinging open on his way to plate, Santana was able to create good leverage and down-angle. His low-80s fastball had some late arm side sink that matched well with a 12-to-6 breaking ball, producing good spin and late depth.

2028: Under-the-Radar Names to Know
Joey Cohen
Article Image
2028 Post-Circuit Dive: Under-the-Radar Names to Know One of my favorite parts of the calendar comes after the summer and fall circuits have wrapped, when I can finally sit down, dig through our tournament performance data and uncover some names that may have slipped through the cracks. With hundreds of events on the schedule and thousands of players coming through them, there's inevitably going to be talent that I or even our collective staff haven't given enough attention to. For this exercise, I wanted to isolate a particular offensive profile. I looked for 2028 bats who produced at a high level while keeping their swing-and-miss numbers in check across a sample of at least 50 plate appearances. On the pitching side, the approach was equally straightforward in terms of identifying arms who consistently filled the strike zone while missing bats at a strong clip. Of course, not all...

Below you'll be able to read about some of the biggest risers up the board, led by North Carolina outfielder John Hucko who jumped more than 110 spots to now sit at No. 20 overall.  John Hucko, OF, Charlotte, N.C. Previous Rank: 132 | Current Rank: 20 Hucko makes a huge leap into the top-20 players in the class after a dominating showing in Jupiter. It’s as good of a left-handed swing as you’ll come across with pretty easy impact to all parts. He’s a supreme athlete with all the tools to play center long term and is a present plus runner. Hucko is a name that cemented his prospect status in Jupiter and will be a name to follow for next year’s MLB Draft. Elyjah Mason, SS, Lake Forest, Calif. Previous Rank: 71 |...

WWBA Underclass Scout Notes: Days 1-2 | Day 3 | Day 4 Stars Being Stars These are some of the more well-known names on the national landscape, playing across several big events in which they performed at the highest of levels. Their showings in Fort Myers were simply a continuation of what we've almost come to expect at this point from them!  Kasen Langerhans (2028, Round Rock, Texas) batted leadoff and stuck at the hot corner for Texas Twelve Red Sox 2028 in Fort Myers. The Texas native has the looks a young left-handed power bat and the swing is built for it. Langerhans produces easy bat speed, delivering a fast and leveraged barrel through the zone. He creates backspin and uses the ground well, really getting into the legs. The infielder has excellent power projection and took comfortable, intentful cuts in the box. Langerhans got the job done at the top of the order...

South Fall World Series Scout Notes

Jay Vossler
Article Image
Kason Mead (2029, Spring, Texas) had a great weekend for Premier Baseball Donato 2029. Went 5-9 with a pair of doubles and a home run, driving in five without striking out. Physical frame with a lot more strength on the way. Impressive bat speed that attacks the top of the zone well. Works to all fields consistently and the profile indicates that he’ll be able to build off that with more impact. Lot to like, should be a riser as he goes into his sophomore season. Sterling McCormack (2029, Magnolia, Texas) performed well for Premier Baseball Donato 2029. Reached four times, including a double. Gains ground well on the stride, using his physicality to his advantage as he stays on an uphill plane, geared for slug. Plenty of strength at the point of impact. Landon Hardy (2029, Spring, Texas) had a strong showing for Scorpions Team Easton 2029. Went 4-11 with a double and homer, driving...

Stars Being Stars These are some of the more well-known names on the national landscape, playing across several big events in which they performed at the highest of levels. Their showings in West Palm were simply a continuation of what we've almost come to expect at this point from them!  Kolt Hampton (2030, Chandler, AZ) is a left-handed hitting infielder with present barrel speed and twitch in the turn. Turned around an upper 80s heater that plated two runs in the first inning of the quarterfinals and never looked back. Also got it done on the rubber punching out three and topping out at 86. The number one player in Arizona produced all week and took care of business defensively.  Landen Davis (2030, Beaufort, SC) showed up at the dish this event hitting .500 with four doubles and five RBIs. Stays tight in the turn with present strength and the approach plays to all fields....
