Spring Stock Risers: LHP
April 10, 2020
TEXAS- A look at a strong group of left-handers from around the state who's stock rising before the season came to an abrupt halt.
Ryan Prager, LHP, Hillcrest, 2021
Uncommitted. Argubly one of the biggest stock risers in the state. Prager made his national ranking debut cracking the Top 100 checking in at No. 76, after a very impressive performance earlier this spring. At 6-foot-4 has a wiry athletic frame. Works from a over-the-top arm slot. Tilted FB with occasional cut. Competes in the zone. Has feel for CH. North/south CB that will continue to improve. High ceiling arm.
FB: 88-90 T91
CB: 73-75
CH: 78-80
Coleson Abel, LHP, Kerville Tivy, 2021
Uncommitted. Has really made a strong impression the spring. 5-foot-11, broad shoulders, long arms, strong body. Deep arm swing, High ¾ to over the top slot. Fastball 82-86 for the game, up to 90 early in game. Arm-side run and occasional sink, still commanded it well to both sides of the plate. CB was 73-77 with sharp with depth, getting swings and misses on the pitch. Tough look against LHH. Throws CH at 76-77, with arm side fade.

Texas Tech Recruit. Made a sizable jump this spring.
Strong outing from @KHS_Baseball Zach Erdman. A top LHP in the Texas 22’ class. Has made a jump.

6’3 frame w/ wiry athleticism. Attacked hitters with glove side FBs paired with a natural feel for CH. Weak contact all day.
