2022 Chicago Indoor Showcase (01/17/2022 - 01/17/2022)

Batting Practice Highlights
1/17/2022 10:55:04 PM

Jimmy Downs (2025 3B, Midlothian, IL) showed good leverage and advanced strength for his age in his swing, showing the ability to lift and separate pull-side with jump and impact. 

Nathan O'Donnell (2025 RHP, New Lenox, IL) showed off impressive bat speed and leverage to his swing, turning the barrel well out front and impacting the ball on a line to all fields. 

Finn O'Meara (2023 3B, Clarendon Hills, IL) does a nice job of separating and getting in a good launch spot, accelerating uphill and showing off good power to the pull-side. 

Antonio Barnes (2023 SS, Highland, IN) showed some of the better physical strength of this event, doing a good job catching the ball out front on plane and getting it into the air with impressive jump pull-side. 

Kade Schneider (2023 OF, South Barrington, IL), a switch-hitter, showed off real hitting tools from both sides. The lefthanded swing has a bit more loft at present, with excellent jump off the barrel and consistent power, with similar bat speed on a flatter path from the right. 

Gael Urbieta (2025 C, Chicago, IL) took a very consistent round, generating good bat speed on a linear path and consistently finding the barrel authoritatively on lower-launch liners, using the whole field while doing so. 

Zachary Pyles (2024 3B, Gurnee, IL) has some of the best power of the event, showing the ability to absolutely hammer baseballs when on time and on plane. The power to the pull-side stands way out, and he'll make some ballparks look quite small. 

Alexander Clark (2024 OF, Glencoe, IL) does a nice job repeating his swing and staying committed to the middle of the field, showing the ability to consistently square up liners on pitches all over the zone and projecting well for power. 

Matteo Nolasco (2025 C, Long Grove, IL) swings the bat with great intent and has the bat speed to do damage, really striking the ball hard consistently with the barrel out front and good projection on his body for more strength. 

Ryan Quinlan (2023 MIF, Huntley, IL) has very good strength to his frame and the bat speed stands out as well, doing a nice job of repeating that stroke with linear impact to all fields throughout the round. 

David Cox (2024 SS, Oak Brook, IL) has impressive physicality and that strength shows up in his swing, getting the ball into the air pull-side with big jump and impressive overall power projection. 

Ryan Groberski (2024 1B, Lockport, IL) repeats his swing well consistently, generating solid bat speed on a linear plane with a middle-field approach, consistently peppering the back wall with hard rising liners. 

Troy Vosburgh (2023 SS, Oswsego, IL) has good bat speed and the physical projection that portends big power gains, doing a nice job of consistently being on the barrel all over the zone with a whole-field, line drive approach. 

Joey Spano Jr. (2024 SS, Erie, PA) took one of the loudest rounds of the day, with very advanced bat speed joined with a barrel that is on plane early and often to create very good hitting tools, and has the makings of a high-level prospect.
