Dylan Carmouche (2020 LHP, Denham Springs, LA) worked from two differing deliveries with a low arm angle or submarine slot to produce a fastball up to 89 mph. The ULL commit creates a very tough angle to hitters and is an uncomfortable at-bat especially to lefthanded hitters. Carmouche has three pitches with feel with a projectable frame and athleticism present in his actions.

Adam Boucher (2020 RHP, Metuchen, NJ) uses a long and loose arm action to sit 89-91 mph with his fastball and create some extension. Boucher made quick work of his outing filling up the strike zone with a downhill plane to his fastball and a 12-6 curveball for strikes as well.

John Montes (2020 SS, Toa Alta, PR) went down to get a low fastball while getting the barrel of the bat to it and lacing it to right field for a hard single. Montes showed plenty of balance at the plate with a confident approach. That barrel control was highlighted a second as well as a third time in the contest as he followed that first single with two more to the pull side.

Garret Guillemette (2020 C, Yorba Linda, CA) fired a strike to second base from his catching position with a 2.12 second pop time to throw out a runner on a caught stealing. The uncommitted backstop has a strong arm with accuracy to the bag.

Hector Andrades (2020 RHP, Bayamon, PR) came in out of the bullpen showing a lively fastball sitting 90-93. Andrades made the trip from Puerto Rico to Phoenix, Arizona as a pitcher only who showed promising velocity from his loose arm and developing spin.

Nick Vieira (2020 RHP, Margate, FL) has projection on the mound with a fastball up to 89 mph and a projectable frame. His arm works from a full arm stroke with a feel to spin and the ability to work the corners for strikes.

Josh Moylan (2020 1B, Stoney Beach, MD) made a strong swing at the plate to drive a deep double the other way. Moylan has outstanding strength at the plate present in his swing and noted in his 100 mph exit velocity off of a tee in drills.

Xander Stephens (2020 RHP, Lilburn, GA) showcased an effective three pitch mix with a fastball in the 87-90 mph range and a deceptive changeup in the low-80s to get lefties out and a slider with sharpness to retire righthanded hitters. Stephens, a Georgia Southern commit, pitched a pair of strong innings pounding the strike zone with command to both sides of the plate.

Gilberto Torres (2020 SS, Salinas, PR) collected a pair of hits in the contest showing a line drive swing plane and a contact-oriented approach. Torres uses a big leg lift into contact with solid balance to time up pitches and get the barrel to the ball.

Jadon Bercovich (2020 RHP, Reno, NV) throws with a low-90s fastball and a great feel for a low-80s changeup. He also mixed in a slider with some sharpness from a working arm and a high three-quarters arm slot.

Reece Lawler (2020 RHP, Gurnee, IL) has a clean arm action and an effortless delivery to produce upper-80s velocity and a downhill plane. Lawler has a highly projectable frame and plenty more in the tank with proper development.

Hank Thomas (2020 OF, Oxford, OH), a Georgia Tech commit, squared up a double to the opposite field gap showing an all fields approach and a feel for the barrel. Thomas’ barrel control is impressive as the future Yellow Jacket showed on this extra base hit in particular.

Jake Deleo (2020 OF, Norwalk, CT) beat out a pair of infield singles in the game showcasing his speed down the line. Deleo ran times from home to first of 4.15 and 4.25 on each individual burst down the first bas line.

Brad Grenkoski (2020 OF, Kennesaw, GA) has a highly projectable frame on the mound with a longer arm action with plenty of looseness to it through the back. The two-way Georgia Tech commit has outstanding arm strength and plenty of extension out in front to create a tough at-bat for opposing hitters. His fastball sat 88-90 mph with a sharp slider sat 78 mph.

Nathan Cmeyla (2020 C, Ashburn, VA) connected on a double down the pull side line. Cmeyla has a balanced stance at the plate with some whip to his barrel through the hitting zone while creating a clean path to contact.

Jonathan Vaughns (2020 3B, Glendora, CA) worked a 1-2-3 inning in the 11th with a fastball up to 90 mph and a sharp slider for strikes. Vaughns gets downhill with his delivery with plenty of life to his fastball out of his hand.
