Jael Hernandez (2024 SS, Coral Springs, FL) smoked a ball to the pull side for an RBI single. Has athletic actions in the box with explosive hitting hands and a knack for putting the barrel on the ball. Also hopped on the bump and showed a really quick arm and a lively fastball in the mid 80’s.

Nico Sarnowski (2024 3B, Boca Raton, FL) jumped on a first pitch fastball and hit a massive homerun that cleared the left field fence by a fair amount.  

Jose Roig (2024 MIF, Miami, FL) hit a massive homerun that cleared the left field fence by a good distance. He stays compact throughout his swing and uses the ground well to impact the ball out front. 

Jorge Barba (2023 3B, Hialeah, FL) carried over the juice he showed in BP to the game. The ball jumped off his bat and he laced a single to left field later in the game.

Michael "MJ" Hough (2026, RHP, Lake Placid, FL) shoved in his three innings of work. The lanky right hander worked with an athletic delivery and ran the fastball up to 80 mph with life from a low ¾ slot. His breaking ball was a true out pitch that showed big sweeping action with similar hand speed as the fastball. He missed bats both in and out of the zone.

Daniel Prieto (2025 RHP, Miami, FL) filled up the zone while effectively locating his fastball and breaking ball to all four quadrants. He stayed off the barrel and induced a ton of weak contact on the ground. 

Jonathan Vazquez (2025 3B, Miami Lakes, FL) looked sharp in his abbreviated outing. He ran his fastball up to 87 mph showing off a lightning quick and a delivery he repeated well. Had great feel to turn over a changeup that racked up swings and misses throughout. Late in the game he hit a massive bomb that landed on top of a roof in deep right field.

Jesus Mosegue (2023 OF, Miami, FL) went 2-2 with a deep triple that cleared the center fielders head. There’s is rotational athleticism in the swing with good feel to manipulate the bat head all over the zone. 

Gabriel Carvajal (2024 3B, Miami, FL) 

was on time all game and went 1-2 with an opposite field double. He creates leverage with his path and gets great extension through contact giving him loads of power potential.

Christopher Sosa (2025 RHP, Hialeah, FL) racked up four strikeouts in his two innings of work. The projectable righty attacked hitters with a fastball that topped out at 89 mph with big cutting life to it. His delivery was athletic and up tempo with a short, efficient arm action that added deception to his operation. 

Jonathan Vazquez (2025 3B, Miami Lakes, FL) barreled a line drive over the second baseman’s head for a loud single. He has a fluid lefty stroke with a solid feel for the bat head.

Alex Rodriguez (2023 SS, East Meadow, NY) had a great at bat driving a two-strike breaking ball through the 5-6 hole. He did a nice job making a mid-flight adjustment with his hands, keeping them back long enough to damage. Also posted above average run times down to first base.  

Nicholas Martinez (2025 SS, Hialeah, FL) and Joshua Cespedes (2026 OF, Hialeah, FL) both collected base knocks to the right center field gap. Martinez’s lefty swing stays on plane for a long time and Cespedes creates a ton of leverage with big strength at the point of contact from the right side.

Alejandro Ludeiro (2024 C, Pembroke Pines, FL) punished balls to the pull side with authority. Leveraged the baseball using a steeper path and a clean weight shift into contact. Durable and strong lower half he incorporated nicely into the swing.

Luis Morera (2023 2B, Miami Lakes, FL) twitch was evident in the swing with fast rotation in the torso and good bat speed to go along with it. 

Jose Roig (2024 MIF, Miami, FL) sprayed line drives to the middle of the field showing off a loose, controlled swing in the process. Real fluidity to the barrel.
