Barnes II showed off a mid-high 80s fastball, topping at 89 mph, with extreme arm side run. He paired this with a slider/curve with an average spin rate of 2652 rpms which topped the event. These two plus pitches is plenty of projectable in velocity and movement as he continues to grow into his 6'4 frame.

Medicoff smashed balls all over the yard during his BP session. The uncommitted first basemen posted multiple exit velo's over 100 and hit a ball as far as 393 feet. Medicoff ran a 6.94 second 60 and moves extremely well at first base.

Jayden Lee

  • Graduating Class: 2024
  • Primary Position: OF
  • High School: Marin Catholic
    State: CA
  • Summer Team: Alpha Power 2024

Miles Tenscher

    Weight: 190lbs
  • Bat/Throw: R/R
Tenscher represents something we normally don't see in high school baseball, a sidearm pitcher. The unique movement and angle he brings to the table makes him incredibly exciting to watch. Coupled with the fact that he operated as a starter should have scouts seriously interested. The uncommitted Tenscher backed up the eye test with the numbers, topping at 86 mph on his fastball with control of a slider and changeup in the mid-to-high 70s. 

John Handy

Class of 2024 / C

  • Graduating Class: 2024
  • Primary Position: C
    Secondary Position: 3B

    State: CA
  • Summer Team: Tri-County Red Sox Scout Team
  • Height: 6-0
    Weight: 190lbs
  • Bat/Throw: R/R

Handy possesses a little bit of everything, he ranked second among catchers at the ProCase in pop time and catcher velocity. With the bat he averaged 90.9 mph exit velo and sprayed balls all over the yard. He also ran a 6.87 second 60-yard dash. He's a full package behind the plate and looks poised to shine this summer and get serious D1 looks.

Rex Solle

Class of 2024 / RHP

Player Information

  • Primary Position: RHP
    Secondary Position: 3B

  • Summer Team: Zoots
  • Height: 5-11
    Weight: 175lbs
  • Bat/Throw: R/R

Solle may just stand at 5'11 but that doesn't stop him from reaching back and throwing absolute darts with two plus off-speed pitches. The velo on the FB was up to 90 with 2311 spin rate and his curveball was impossible to touch at 76 with 2887 spin rate. The changeup was also nasty and left hitters confused when the ball disappeared during their swing.

A physical anomaly, the 3-sport athlete shows incredible athleticism not only for someone his size (6'5, 225) but for the entire event. Wentworth ran a 6.60 second 60 and averaged a 94.6 mph exit velo. Although he didn't throw at the ProCase, he presents a crazy level of athleticism with multiple tools as a pitcher, hitter, and outfielder.
