Uncommitted Spotlight: 2024 Jayden Harriel


Rocco Iervasi
PBR Florida Director of Operations/Area Scout

This spring we will be highlighting players throughout the state with Uncommitted Spotlights. We will highlight one 2022, 2023, and 2024 player each week looking for a school to call home. The state of Florida is full of uncommitted players who have the talent to play at the next level. These players deserve as much exposure as they can get in order to help them find the right home.

Today, we will highlight 2024 Jayden Harriel. Jayden is a strong 6-foot-1, 210 pound third baseman from East Lake High School. Outside of high school, he plays travel ball with the Top Tier Roos. Jayden was a member of Team Florida at the 2021 PBR Future Games. He was one of two 2024s on the 2021 team. Harriel has a big offensive toolset. Fast hands with natural lift on contact creating power potential. Moves well for his size with a sub 7 60 time and and above average arm from third.
