VanderLeest has a 6-foot-1, 188-pound build with a strong lower half. He has a simple load and creates good separation. He does a good job of keeping his short, contact swing in the hitting zone to work the middle of the field. His exit velocity topped out at 91 mph and he ran a 7.44 60-yard dash. Vanderleest does a good job of using quick feet and hands to get rid of the ball from the shortstop position. On the mound, VanderLeest throws from a high-3/4 arm slot and sat 75-77 mph with his fastball, 65-66 mph with his curveball, and 70-72 mph with his changeup. He was able to keep the ball down in the zone with his fastball and showcased the potential to throw both off speed pitches for quality strikes.
