No. 4 Alex Binelas
Alex Binelas (Oak Creek, 2018) comes in as the fourth most viewed profile in Wisconsin. We got our first look at Binelas as an incoming freshman at the PBR Labor Day Challenge in 2014, where he was playing against high level 2015 and 2016 grads. Binelas put together some of the best at bats of the event, profiling as a left-handed power bat. He was the first commit in the 2018 class when he committed to Louisville in December of last year. His profile saw consistent action all year with over 5,000 clicks in 2015.
PBR Scouting Report: 5.9.15 - 6-foot-2, 185-pound highly athletic corner infielder. Strong, lanky, athletic build with some burst, 7.20 60 runner. Exhibits fluid, short arm action with some carry across the infield at 82 mph. Soft hands and feet, anticipates well, attacks the baseball when necessary. Clean exchange is fluid, doesn’t waste any movement. Shows comfort moving each direction laterally. Maintains athletic, ready position. Hits from a balanced athletic set up with advanced feel. Smooth, consistent load; keeps the head still throughout the swing. Strong hands with some high-end bat control for his age. 89 mph exit velocity. Found the barrel regularly with a short path to the ball with a slight up-hill plane. Let the ball travel and seemed comfortable hitting to all fields for the time being. Gap-to-gap hitter who could develop into a power-pull type with age and overall physical maturity. High level prospect who projects as middle of the order power hitter. Committed to Louisville.
