Greyson Wild (SMC Commit), Catawba Ridge, RHP, 2022  - Solid frame. Commands FB well, found strikes in all quadrants. Long arm action from a 3/4 slot. FB w/ hop up to 87, velo jumped as the game went along. Solid CB, 10/4 action, still a work in progress to lefties, but threw pitch for strikes vs. RHH. Confidence in pitch. 

‘22 RHP Greyson Wild (@CatawbaRidgeBSB; #SMC commit) went a strong 5.0 today allowing only 2 runs. Solidly built. Commanded FB (up to 87 w/ hop) in zone well entire outing. Has feel for a solid CB, confidence pitch to RHH, tunnels well from slot. Also flashed a CH.@PBR_SC pic.twitter.com/FkWjjAnTGv

Cooper Parks, Uncommitted, York, RHP/INF, 2024 - Lanky frame, ways to go until he’s filled out. Projection is obvious. Quick, athletic actions on the mound and is aggressive at release point. Short arm action, combined with running FB gets on RHH quickly, generating jam shots. Sat 86-87, but can run up to 90 with max effort. Flashed breaking ball at 72, slurve-like, will get sharper as he matures. At the plate, barreled up 86 to lead off the game with a base hit.

#Uncommitted ‘24 RHP Cooper Parks

Not his best outing, but stuff was still solid. Short action, aggressive at release point. Sat 86-87 w/ FB, but can reach back for 89-90. No clips, but also flashed a CB at 72. Lanky frame w/ room at add.@PBR_SC @PBR_Uncommitted @YCHSbaseball pic.twitter.com/ENODW4GNU6

Trace Thompson (CIU Commit), York, OF, 2022 - strong frame with athleticism. At the plate, uses lower half and core well to let barrel drag through the zone.  Has an ability to hit to all fields.

‘22 OF Trace Thompson (@YCHSbaseball; #CIU commit) smokes one deep into LF for a two bagger. Stays on plane nicely and makes solid contact. Drags bat well thru zone to put the barrel on the baseball. Nice swing against mid-80s heat.@PBR_SC pic.twitter.com/O1gJUg3lBU

Ryley Stout, Uncommitted, York, SS, 2022 - LHH, starts with a stance slightly open with a medium leg kick. Keeps hands on plane nicely to avoid getting out of rhythm.  Gap to gap approach, disciplined hitter.
