Shaw showed a very live arm from the left side with good pitchability as well. He was up to 78 mph, living in the mid-70s, with a hard breaking ball and very good whip to the arm. Shaw can swing it from the left side too and was all over the barrel offensively.
Iatarola was in complete control on the mound, showing a three pitch mix with a clean operation and good feel for the breaking ball. He can swing it too and knocked in two doubles in game with a compact stroke.
Francois was a solid defensive backstop with good hitting tools and approach from an offensive standpoint. He receives well and threw 70 mph from behind the plate and the swing projects well.
Bello was all over the barrel in game showing a quick stroke with good separation and overall upside. He made a couple of web gems defensively including a nice over the shoulder grab behind second base and a great diving play to his right at shortstop.
Blanco has a powerful left-handed swing and the makings of a solid two pitch mix from the left side. He's still very young but has feel for the curveball and has great size at 6-foot, 150-pounds.
Alaña was the top prospect of the event, showing big bat speed and popping a 1.97 from behind the plate. He's a very solid receiver with projection for big power and strength at the dish; he does everything well at this level.
