Team Northwest 2105 and Dbacks Elite Scout Team showed off their loaded rosters on Day 1 of the 4th annual 18u Perfect Game MLK Championship in Glendale, Ariz.

Team Northwest displayed a stacked left side of the infield, highlighted by 2015 shortstop Ethan Paul (Bellevue, Wash., Newport High School), who showed off his advanced defensive prowess. The Vanderbilt commit made routine plays look very easy with fluid actions, solid footwork and a quick release with plenty of arm strength to stay on the left side of the infield. Paul also showed the ability to range left and make strong, accurate throws from different arm angles and on the run.

Washington commit and 2015 infielder Jack Johnson (Seattle, Wash., Roosevelt HS) made his presence known at the plate. Johnson demonstrated a quiet, quality approach at the plate with good barrel awareness and ball-to-bat skills. He was able to turn on a fastball up and in squaring it up for a two-run double, and found barrel in the next at-bat for a single.

2015 catcher/righthanded pitcher Parker Kelly (Portland, Ore., Westview HS) got an inning of work on the mound in the seventh. The PG All-American retired the side in order fanning one. The future Oregon Duck worked with a mid-80s fastball, showing a fluid delivery with easy three-quarters arm slot/action and arm-side run.

Not to be out done, Phenom Florida ran out a quality shortstop as well. Raul Cabrera (Orlando, Fla., Lake Nona HS), who is uncommitted, flashed some tools defensively with quality glove work and showed he can make all plays at the position. With the bat Cabrera is an aggressive hitter with a healthy hack who possesses good bat speed and balance. Barrel gets in the zone early, stays in zone and has some lift in his swing. Cabrera displays pull-side pop connecting on a two-run double down the line that sounded well off the bat. Cabrera also looks a little bigger that his listed 5-toot-10, 175-pound stature.

The Dbacks Elite Scout Team attracted the biggest gallery of scouts on Day 1. One reason was 2015 righthander Javy Medina (Tucson, Ariz., Sahuaro HS), a University of Arizona commit. Medina showed a good three-pitch mix, including a fastball that lived 86-89 while topping out at 90 mph. His delivery had good tempo, torque and balance, and he also displayed a nice arm action, arm speed and run that gets in on righthanded hitters. Medina showed great feel and command for his deceptive 74-78 mph changeup in which he maintained his arm speed, which faded away from righthanded hitters. His curveball has 11-to-5 tilt with some bite, and he was able to front door it to righthanded hitters as a get-me-over strike and also used it as an out-pitch in changing eye levels.

The other reason for the 30 plus professional scouts in attendance was 2015 outfielder Tyler Williams (Peoria, Ariz., Raymond Kellis HS). Williams, an Arizona State commit, is built like a collegiate linebacker and flashed some raw power potential by hitting a broken bat, opposite field triple, showing off his 6.54 speed as he dashed around the bases.
