Travis
Graves

Actions look the part, just needs to get more physical. A right-handed hitter that starts in a wider, open setup. Starts movements early, allowing for regular timing. When he pulls the trigger he shows a compact, level stroke with obvious intent behind it. Has the ability to maintain barrel accuracy which is impressive considering the amount of intent the stroke has. Made loud contact throughout BP, showing for much more pop than frame suggest. In the infield he plays with fluidity in all directions. Does a nice job creating angles and maintains rhythm through fielding. Middle infielder skill set. Solid, well-rounded ball player.

A talented prospect in the 2020 class. Will show well in a showcase setting but tools show even more in game. Up the middle feet work well, creating angles to play through the baseball with rhythm. Glove is an above average tools and can keep ball skills on the move. At the plate he displays an efficient swing with a nice path through the zone. Already possesses hand speed just needs to add some strength to frame. Plays with a motor and has a high baseball IQ.

Graves is a growth spurt away from becoming a name on the recruiting circuit. A versatile defender that is smooth up the middle and pops regularly in the 1.9s (low 1.89). Swing is compact/efficient. Barrel whips through the zone on a level path. Displayed twitch to his hands with gap abilities to both sides. Undersized currently but displays the actions college scouts look for. Interesting follow as physical maturity takes its course.

A 5-foot-6, 125-pound prospect. In the batter’s box he hits from the right-side, starting in a wider setup. Mechanically simple, keeping hands quiet during his short stride. Does a nice job of maintaining balanced. Path is level with above average bat speed. Showed feel for the barrel and line drive pop. More juice to come with maturity. Stays within himself. A middle infield with confident, athletic actions. Footwork is quick and creates angles. Ball skills are well above average for his class. Transfer is clean and he uses multiple arm angles. In game really competed, hustle stood out.
