Ohio Insider: Top 2017 Uncommitted Outfielders
With the Summer season coming to an end and the 2016-2017 high school sports season as well as fall ball getting underway, we would like to take a look at some of the top uncommitted prospects at each position.
Today we are looking at the top uncommitted senior outfielders in Ohio. We will look to create a few top uncommitted lists each week, as you can see by our 2017 Player Rankings there are numerous talented prospects available.
Cade Pipoly, Medina
Ranked: 27th in Ohio’s 2017 Class
Scouting Report: 6-foot, 185-pound athletic body frame. From the infield he uses good footwork to approach ground balls, while creating rhythmic momentum through the baseball. Has a clean exchange and the arm strength to stay at shortstop at the next level. Reached a top velocity of 82 mph on his throws across the infield. Right-handed hitter starts his swing from from a wider base using a controlled knee-high leg kick to create a good, rhythmic weight shift with his lower half to his back leg to generate power. Has quick hands, with minimal load that get to a good launch position before he swings. Showed the ability to use both sides of the field during his round of batting practice. Recorded a top exit velocity of 91 mph and ran a 4.56 home to first base time.
