Batting Practice Highlights
2/22/2020 11:21:41 PM

Jason Janesko (2023 C, Moosic, PA) has a short and direct swing. Janesko creates good bat speed and displayed his best contact when getting extended out front.

 

Neil Mallik (2024 1B, Tomball, TX) showed his loose and easy swing during batting practice. Mallik has power potential and will continue to unlock more  with maturity and continued implementation of his backside.

 

Blayne McFerren (2024 SS, Stonewall, LA) swings with intent while staying loose with his bat path. The athleticism to McFerren is apparent in his stroke while having jump off the barrel when squared.

 

Alec Reyes (2024 OF, Edinburg, TX) has a short swing with plenty of feel for the barrel already. Reyes stays on a level plane and showcased a gap to gap approach with projectable juice.

 

Michael Barham (2024 3B, Duncan, OK) looks to lift at the plate with the hand strength to do so. The ball jumps to each gap when squared with plenty of potential pop as he matures.

 

Ryan Everitt (2024 1B, Weslaco, TX) displayed a simple swing connecting on contact to either gap. Everitt has a lift to his swing path and easy juice.

 

Jayden Boyd (2024 3B, Jacksonville, TX) stood out barreling balls repeatedly back into the L-screen. Boyd’s middle of the field approach along with his simple swing connected on many high exit velocities.

 

Tristan Bittle (2024 OF, Arlington, TX) put together a nice round to all parts of the field. He barreled the baseball using a balanced swing with loose hands and the ball will continue to jump more with strength.

 

Nano Mendoza (2024 3B, Lubbock, TX) is very strong and when impacted the ball really jumps. The swing is long through contact creating juice to either gap when on time.

 

Cody Cashon (2024 C, Southlake, TX) put together a nice day all around especially in BP displaying a shorter swing whiel staying inside the baseball. The ball comes off the barrel quickly when squared and continues to project with additional extension.

 

Kayson Cunningham (2025 SS, San Antonio, TX) may not be the most physical player, but the hand-eye and feel for the barrel are well beyond his years. Cunningham showcased an all fields approach with looseness to his hands that impacted the ball well while still developing strength.

 

Alfredo Rodarte (2023 SS, Houston, TX) did a nice job of using his quick hands to create present bat speed while whipping the barrel through the zone. He got extended well through the point of contact and was able to drive the ball with some authority to all parts of the field.

 

Josh Glaser (2024 3B, Flower Mound, TX) put a short and direct swing on display from the right side with some present hand speed. While he’ll get to his front side early at times, he was able to impact the baseball with his physical strength when everything was in sync.

 

Thomas Melvin (2024 C, Plano, TX) showed a steady feel for the barrel during his round of batting practice, connecting for occasional backspin to the middle of the field. He did a nice job of getting the barrel out front and lived in the middle of the diamond.
