Area Scout, Illinois & Missouri

With the year coming to an end, our staff is taking some time to highlight and reflect on the most viewed profiles in Missouri throughout 2023. We’ll be counting down to the top spot, starting with No. 10 earlier in the week working our way down, releasing the most viewed name prior to the end of the year.  

Our profiles serve as an all-in-one platform for players, hosting vendors such as verified stats, event video, contact information, and more. To create a free PBR profile, click HERE.

We've already released three stories, which you can find here:

+ No. 10 Tytus Cissell
+ No. 9 Drew Dickerson
+ No. 8 Trey Snyder
+ No. 7 Kade Durnin
+ No. 6 Leo Humbert
+ No. 5
Henry Vedder
+ No. 4 Caeden Cloud
+ No. 3 Nazzan Zanetello

We’ll keep making our way to No. 1 on our list today with the second most viewed profile in the state this year, RHP/INF Jordan Martin (Jefferson City, 2025; Arkansas commit). 

The top prospect in the state’s 2025 class, Martin seemingly continues to impress and improve each time we get a look at him. Standing at 6-foot-5, 200-pounds with present strength on a long-limbed frame, Martin’s talents extend to both sides of the ball as a high-end prospect from a two-way perspective. 

Offensively, Martin controls his levers exceptionally well for his age and consistently stays inside the baseball, allowing him to backspin gap-to-gap with regularity. It’s an accurate and polished right-handed barrel that’s shown well both in a workout setting as well as in game, especially at Creekside, where he banged a double off a deep center field wall while also finding a handful of other barrels.

Where his ceiling, and ultimate landing spot, may be is on the mound, where Martin truly is a premium prospect that rivals those names we’ve seen come before him in the ‘Show Me’ state. He’s athletic, controlled, and able to get down the mound in-line consistently with a short, tight, and quick arm to pair. Across multiple outings this year, Martin’s fastball played in the upper-80s to low-90s, touching 92 mph at the PBR All-American Game. He’s able to land a mid-to-upper-70s breaking ball for strikes and, on occasion, will show a low-80s changeup to left-handed hitters.

A top-30 prospect nationally for his class, Martin participated in the inaugural Prep Baseball All-American Game this past September and fit in nicely amongst a loaded group of participants. Martin’s just starting to scratch the surface of what his ultimate ceiling may be and, with another off-season under his belt, we could see the latest in-state star take an even bigger step in his development.
