October 14, 2022
Scott Hood
OK/MO/KS/ARK Assistant Scouting Director

Prep Baseball Report Oklahoma is highlighted some of the top remaining uncommitted players in the 2023 class to a couple of the top 2025's.  Today we take a look at the physical catcher from Sand Springs Dominic Ornelas.  Ornelas is one of the top remaining uncommitted catchers in the State and continues to have big performances each time we see him.  Dominic has some of the easiest power in the state blasting multiple homers this past spring and summer using his smooth and controlled swing.  Ornelas has also improved over the years as a backstop, showing strong and accurate throws to go along with advanced receiving skills.  Ornelas has done a good job of shaping up his frame adding more muscle making him an interesting prospect to keep an eye on for the next level.
