Brayden Bartholomew ('26, Charlotte, N.C.) #4 Royal- the 6-foot, 165-pound right-handed pitcher ran the fastball into the low-80s and featured a big sweeping slider around 70 mph with spin @2330-2457 RPM. Three-pitch mix with repeatable delivery and mechanics. Right-handed hitter went 2-for-3 with a run batted in.

Angelo Santiago ('26, Auburn, AL) #11 Green- the 5-foot-11, 204-pound primary shortstop ran the fastball up to 88 mph on the bump over a scoreless inning of relief with two strikeouts. A right-handed hitter with a strong base, Santiago drove in a run with a single in three at-bats.

JC Slavis ('26, Marietta, Ga.) #12 Green- the 6-foot-3, 185-pound right-handed hitter drove in a pair of runs with a 2-for-3 day at the dish. Slavis jumped on a first pitch curveball and laced it back up the middle to score the pair and doubled earlier to right field as part of his big day.

Paxton Benoit ('26, Fayetteville, Ga.) #3 Green- the 6-foot, 175-pound right-handed hitter went 2-for-3 with a double and two runs scored. The athletic outfielder controlled the barrel with compact stroke through the zone.

John Cook (2027 OF, Roswell, GA) had some good swings throughout the round, peppering the ball to the middle/pull-side. He was on time throughout the round and shows some good leverage. The power upside is really good as he should continue to add on strength in the coming years. 

Tyler Koski (2027 SS, Milton, MA) has been all over the barrel in the round. It's a simple right-handed swing with a toe tap trigger and ability to get the barrel extended. He has solid feel for the barrel and showed strength to the middle of the field. 

Storm Lickliter (2026 RHP, Ponte Vedra Beach, FL) flashed the ability to get the barrel out front and impact it to the pull side with lift in the path. He has strength throughout the frame and it translates to the swing, hitting a HR in the round. 

Gregory Rauch (2028 SS, Montgomery, AL) showed some promise in the switch hit tool and lived on the barrel in the left-handed swing. Showed quality bat speed with some strength and more coming as he continues to fill out the frame. 

Zac Flitcraft (2026 OF, Panama City, FL) put together a quality round of batting practice throughout, just living on the barrel. It's a flatter path with good bat speed and some strength into the gaps. 

Angelo Santiago (2026 SS, Auburn, AL) hit the ball hard at times throughout the round, just peppering the gaps with hard liners. He has noticeable strength throughout the frame and the ball jumps off the barrel. 

Paxton Benoit (2026 OF, Fayetteville, GA) hit the ball hard throughout the round, almost exclusively to the pull-side. He showed the ability to handle the barrel and impact it consistently right down the line and flashed the ability to lift.
