Black V. Royal Highlights

2/17/2024

Clint Patton (2028, Elyria, OH) was consistent mid-70s and has a great frame for his age. It’s uber lanky with tons to fill. Gets a bit of downhill action on that fastball and missed bats. 

 

Bobby Smithnosky (2028 Mt Pleasant PA) had one of the better BPs of the group are it follows in game. Loud barrel the other way for a knock. Great handle for the barrel at his age group and there’s some intent to build upon. Ran it up to 82 mph on the hill and there’s big time arm talent all around.  

 

Mick Smead (2028 Jones, MI) produced one of the loudest hits of the day, a screamer through the left side. Uber physical frame for age with serious strength that can really develop. Tons of untapped upside. 

 

Colton Hall ((2028 Blacklick OH) laced a double the other way and showed well on the hill. Good 2-way potential on display. Gamer type traits that can develop as he matures. 

 

Carlos Desantos (2027 Delta, OH) physical two-way ability on display. Was up to 82 mph with armside run and feel for both a curveball and slider. Huge strength in the stick, as well. Arm talent showed. 

 

Parker Alix (2028 Dublin, OH) was sound behind the dish receiving wise and strung together solid contact. Got the bat head out and worked some the other way. Good athlete defensively and really showed out.

2024 Great Lakes Indoor Prospect Pathway Batting Practice Highlights

2/17/2024

Parker Alix (2028 Ohio) real good round and ability to drive it for age. Can separate a bit and showed good handle for the barrel, big pull side contact. 

 

Bobby Smithnosky (2028 Mt Pleasant PA) big time strength potential. Heaviness to barrel and made loud contact to all fields. 

 

Colton Hall (2028 Blacklick OH) smoother swing for age, good extension and worked the barrel well. Good timing and feel for age, frame projects for more. 

 

Mick Smead (2028 Jones MI) bigger, strong frame and uses it. Got into both halves well and really impacted the baseball. Lots of hard contact to the pull side. 

 

Carlos Desantos (2027 Delta OH) loudest round of the day with a thunderous barrel. Huge strength and carry to the pull side. Impacts it hard and creates length. 

 

Alex Jordan (2029 Plain City OH) solid lefty swing and worked it well to all fields. Middle of the field approach and worked it well in his round. Good feel. 

 

Colin Cevasco (2029 Painesville OH) really good round for age. Sprayed it to all fields and was on the barrel. Quick bat with more strength in store as he matures.
