Player Spotlight
Thomas May: SS/RHP, (2023) Fayetteville, AR. 6-foot, 175-pound projectable frame. Projectable in the box, the right-handed hitter had a max exit velocity of 89 mph. Starts in a balanced stance with a smooth compact load, then uses a controlled stride. Bat speed is average, uses a short upward swing plane and high finish. Through his round he found some barrels with some loud contact. Up the middle approach. While in the infield, registered his best throw across the diamond at 76 mph; shows sure consistent hands, a quick fluid exchange, and consistent rhythmic feet. Laterally, movements were average and fielded the ball out front. Consistent accuracy to the bases, used a long arm action with an-over-the-top slot. Recorded a time of 7.57 in the 60-yard dash. On the mound, slider (68-70 mph). Threw his fastball 75-77 mph; has tilt and control low in the zone with straight movement. He shows command low in the zone and tilt on his 11/5 curveball (69-72). Showed fading action and arm side command on his straight changeup (73-75).
