Prep Baseball Texas Staff
On Saturday, January 11th, the PB Texas staff traveled to Texas Christian University to host the North Texas Preseason All-State, an invite-only event for the class of 2025-2028.
More than 60 players made their way to Rice University and participated in a pro-style workout, gathering unrivaled access to data through our state-of-the-art tech partners, as well as in-depth scouting analysis from our Prep Baseball Texas staff.
We've already posted a Statistical Analysis from the event, highlighting more of the traditional statistical categories, as well as a Quick Hits Story, highlighting some of the events top performers, while also posting Data Dives for both Pitchers and Position Players.
Today, we take a look at the scouting reports from each catcher in attendance as well as rank the top 5 from the day.

TOP INFIELDERS

Positional Profile: SS/RHP RHH/INF Great build to add strength. Plus athleticism, plus runner, moves well on baseball field showing body control/agility. Good defensive player with actions present at SS. Defensive versatility present, can move anywhere on the diamond. Shows ability to impact baseball. Opportunities present for adjustments. Body: 6-2, 205-pounds. Good build, showing nice strength, will continue to add strength in future. Projects very well physically. Hit: RHH. Lands in good position to hit. Hits into firm front side, back foot shows linear movement with direction towards 3rd base. Like the linear movement, sliding to 3rd base kills use of lower 1/2. Would like to see linear movement towards mound, maximizing use of lower 1/2. Movement of back foot towards 3rd also limits adjustability to location of pitch. Bat speed present along with bat strength. Barrel/hands in good launch position. Takes solid path to hit zone with hands/barrel. Push type swing. Hits balls hard when barreled. 73.1 mph bat speed with 8 G's of rotational acceleration. Power: 102 max exit velocity, averaged 83.2 mph. 360' max distance. Solid bat/power combo in future. Opportunities for adjustment. Hits balls hard off barrel, raw power present. Will be fun to watch him develop and adjust. Arm: RH. INF-92 mph. Arm works well, ability to throw from all angles. Carry to throws. Plus future Defense: Actions, solid footwork. Makes it look easy. Good hands, good glove presentation. Shows body control and agility. 6.54 runner, could also play CF. Haven't seen him do it, betting on the baseball player if he did go out in CF. ATH: 6.54 runner in the 60. 1.55 and 3.63 in the 10 and 30 yard splits. Plus runner, will get his share of SB's. Good mover. 23.30 max vertical.
