Columbia vs. Black Game Highlights

4/23/2023

Harrison Kalina (2026 RHP, Estero, FL) really impressed defensively in this one, making a number of tough plays at shortstop. Kalina also added a single on a line the other way. 

Armando Monday (2027 C, Palm Harbor, FL) was very good behind the plate and at controlling the running game. The catch-and-throw skills are very good and he's an active and eager blocker. 

Juan Tabio (2028 3B, Davie, FL) crushed a double to straight away centerfield. Tabio is a super physical left-handed hitter who was very accurate with the barrel all weekend. 

Jackson Mann (2027 LHP, Clewiston, FL) ripped an RBI single to the pull side to plate a run. Mann showed a tight turn over the inside and allows his natural strength to take hold.

4/23/2023

Gabriel Granadillo (2027 RHP, Hialeah, FL) was very good over his three innings of work, racking up the swing-and-miss. He lived in the low-70s with nice cutting action on the fastball while the curveball had downer bite with healthy spin rates up to 2600 rpm.

Ryan Carvajal (2027 RHP, Tampa, FL) worked up to 78 mph with good sinking action while competing in the zone. The curveball is a true 12/6 pitch with depth to it and the fastball was a good pitch all day for him.

Anthony Tenuto (2027 SS, Estero, FL) showed solid two-way ability on the mound in a quick inning, working up to 76 mph. He's going to continue to throw harder and already has feel for a curveball he could land glove side.

Evan Juan (2027, Tampa, Fla.) was able to get the barrel on an elevated fastball; he was working uphill to it and drove it hard into left field. The line-drive shot was an easy single as he worked the at-bat and ended up on first base.
