A  5-foot-10, 170-pound switch hitting short stop who ran a 7.20 60.  Balanced from the left side with a short stride and soft load of the hands.  Swing path is level with good extension out front and good gap power.  He had an 89 MPH exit velocity.  From the right side he stands balanced with a short stride for timing.  Good weight transfer and hits off a firm front side.  In the field he shows quick feet and rounds the ball well.  Transfer is quick to the throwing window and he delivers from an over the top slot.  Arm velocity was 85 MPH with good accuracy.  Identified as the best switch hitter 2016 and best defensive player at this event.

Currently ranked No. 9 for 2016, the 5-foot-11, 180 pound senior shows good quick feet at both positions up the middle.  We saw him at Short and he made several plays on slow hit balls causing him to have to field and throw on the run.  An 86 mph arm velocity compliments his quick feet and hands.  A switch hitter at the plate with gap-to-gap power and good pull power from the left side.

Currently ranked No. 9 in the 2016 class and committed to Texas A&M. 5-foot-10, 170-pound switch-hitting shortstop. Gillman started off the tournament slow at the plate but it did not effect his defense as he showed great range glove hand side at ss the whole tournament making plays few high school shortstops could make. Attacks the ball well. After the first day his bat got going which included a homerun against Georgia on Saturday, and for the rest of the tournament got on base by singles or walks. Lead off for Team Colorado the whole tournament.
