Brady Boyle (2019 OF, San Antonio, TX) is a big and strong left handed hitter with very good present bat speed. He pounded pull side line drives the entire round and had the ball jumping harder than any other hitter at the event.
Leon Johnson III (2019 OF, Bothell, WA) will need to shorten his swing as the game speeds up but gets lots of leverage from his 6-3/180 build that looks even taller and he puts lots of back spin on the ball when he's timed up.
Mark Steward (2020 C, Meridian, ID) is a young right handed hitter who has quick hands and timed up almost immediately. He swings hard and created bat speed that led to consistent hard line drive pull contact.
Julian Jackson (2019 OF, Bothell, WA) was another hitter who was timed up from the first swing, with a simple and direct shift to contact and an aggressive right handed swing that led to lots of gap running line drives, especially to right centerfield.
Crosby Albee (2021 SS, Salem, OR) is exceptionally strong for a freshman with a solid 6-0/185 build and has present bat speed and strength at contact. His right handed swing is short with an uphill angle to it and he's going to hit plenty of future bombs with that approach.
Nicholas Elkins (2019 OF, Boise, ID) needs to get stronger but the left handed hitter had perhaps the nicest pure swing of the day, squaring up every pitch with a very well timed and smooth swing.
Jonas Kim (2019 SS, Puyallup, WA) is a smooth and very projectable athlete with a long and loose right handed swing that has some present bat speed and plenty more as he fills out and gets stronger.
Layton Wagner (2019 3B, Boise, ID) has a strong 5-11/205 build that provides the bat speed needed to drive the ball and the short arms that good hitters often have to stay short and direct to the ball. He wore out the gaps with hard line drives.
Justin Tucker (2018 RHP, Renton, WA) is a next level prospect on the mound but also showed his athleticism and hitting ability well in batting practice, with a short swing and a nice shift into contact.
Dawson Baracani (2019 IF, Sammamish, WA) showed the ability to wait and explode on the ball and really get it to jump hard. He's a big middle infielder at 6-1/190 and uses that strength well.
Will Simpson (2019 1B, Sammamish, WA) is one of the strongest players at the event and the 6-3/205 right handed hitter can put a charge in the ball with a very simple swing from a tall and calm approach.
