At the Top Prospect Showcase in December, the 5-foot-9, 165-pound Venturella showed well in all facets of the game. Defensively, he impressed with his quick hands, concise footwork and overall fluid actions. Venturella, who ran a 4.38 home to first, plays exceptionally well on the move. At the plate, Venturella showed good bat speed and a clean path to the baseball. He has quick hands and has a solid line-drive approach.
