Liam Eldridge (2030 RHP, Wilsonville, OR) was dominant in his outing yesterday, having his strikeout stuff working. Drop/drive operation with a loose arm. Up to 75 with the heater that produced a lot of in-zone whiff. Landed several low 60s breakers for strikes as well.
Axel Schwaigert (2029 C, Bonney Lake, WA) got off a strong hack yesterday, lining one back throughe middle for a single. Good aggressive intent to the swing. Direct barrel path that flattens out into contact.
Jonah Kinney (2029 3B, Wilsonville, OR) shined at the plate yesterday. Collected two hits, including an opposite field liner and a hard pullside GB. Balanced swing operation where the hands/barrel work short and direct to it.
Tucker Pelser (2029 C, Marysville, WA) was a two-way standout yesterday. Worked his hands in tight on an inside fastball nicely and lined it into left for a knock. Also struck out five in two innings of work where he ran his fastball into the mid 70s.
Anthony Solis (2029 OF, Marysville, WA) had one of the better barrels yesterday, lining one hard into left for a single. Did a good job working a flat and fast barrel to a high fastball.
Noxx Worrell (2028 RHP, Castle Rock, WA) got off two strong hacks yesterday, lining both hard into the LC gap for XBHs. Strong/quick hands throw a fast barrel through with ability to impact it to all fields.
Caleb Showerman (2029 SS, Estacada, OR) did a nice job pulling his hands in tight on an inisde fastball and lined it into left for a single.
Karev Knepper (2029 RHP, Estacada, OR) showed quality stuff in his couple innings of work striking out five. Real simple and repeatable operation down the mound. Shorter AA to a lower 3/4 slot. Into the mid 70s, T76 with the fastball and mixed in a tight mid 60s breaker.
Dantaie Franklin (2030 OF, Renton, WA) had a nice opposite field piece for a single. Real simple swing operation showing minimal moving parts. Hands work quick and direct to the baseball.
Parker Cox (2030 3B, Molalla, OR) showed a real easy smooth stroke that transfered well into gameplay. Lined one sharply back up the middle for a single. Foot gets down early as the barrel works short-to-long through it.
Walker Chew (2030 OF, Clyde Hill, WA) had a nice oppo barrel which resulted in a single. Rhythmic toe tap trigger where the hands work the barrel real short and direct to it with ability to catch it deep and work the other way.
Parker Pumphrey (2030 RHP, Milton-Freewater, OR) threw three shutout innings where he struck out five. Filled up the zone with his low 70s fastball and mixed in a upper 60s breaker he showed feel to land and produced chase whiffs.
Noah Rodriguez (2030 SS, Bremerton, WA) shot one back up the middle for a single. Simple swing operation. Minimal moving parts to the hands and lower-half as the barrel works short/level to it.
