Many players shine at PBR Unsigned Senior event

The PBR's Unsigned Senior Showcase on Jan. 16 featured an impressive list of prospects, many of whom elevated their status as players to pay close attention to in the coming months, including Oak Park RHP Jack Rogalla (right) ...

Spotlight Prospect

Pat Guinane

Glenbrook South HS, 3B/RHP, Class of 2010: The 6-foot, 175-pound Guinane is a strong-bodied athlete who has all the tools to be a top-level third baseman. As the top defensive infielder at the Unsigned Senior Showcase, Guinane demonstrated impressive arm strength (83 mph) across the infield, to go along with quick hands and feet. At the plate he showed a relaxed hitting approach with bat speed and power to all fields. On the mound, Guinane topped out at 85 mph along with a sharp-biting 78 mph slider.

Dylan Rheault

Glenbard South HS, RHP, Class of 2010: Completely unknown heading into the event, the 6-foot-8, 210-pound right-hander made a big name for himself, not only because of his size, but because of his long and loose arm action. Rheault topped out at 86 mph, smooth and easy. He also showed a sharp, late-breaking 68-70 mph curveball and feel for a changeup.

Sean Brennan

St. Ignatius HS, RHP-OF, Class of 2010: Brennan is a long, athletically built 6-foot-3, 175-pound prospect with arm strength and considerable upside. In the outfield he moves fluidly and had good carry on his 85-mph throws. On the mound, Brennan featured a loose, whippy arm; he topped out at 83 mph with, it seems, a lot more in the tank. An excellent student (30 ACT), he also ran a 7.25 60.

Dawson Montfort

Harrisburg HS, 1B, Class of 2010: Extremely strong and powerful, Montfort is a physically mature 6-foot-1, 225-pound right-handed hitting first baseman. Montfort has natural power, as he showed during the high school season when he hit 7 homers with 47 RBI. He also showed good feet around the bag with soft hands. Also a standout linebacker and fullback on the football team.
