Highly-impressive look at the premier two-way freshman from Newnan. Maginnis took the mound against a strong lineup from Harrison, and dazzled across 4+ no-hit innings. Mixing deception in the windup with great body control while messing with timing in the leg lift. Maginnis repeats a compact arm circle with ease while getting deep into his lower half while getting downhill. Fastball at 84-86, touching 87 multiple times with hard bore to the arm-side. Advanced feel to spin a high-70s curveball with great depth from a consistent 11-5 shape. Showed a changeup on occasion in the high-70s as well. Maginnis did a fantastic job pitching to contact early in counts, creating a ton of soft pop-ups and extremely quick innings. Pitchability really stood out for the top 10 player in Georgia’s 2027 class. At the plate, Maginnis was equally impressive with a simple approach with the right-side. Maintaining balance well, the 6-foot-0, 165-pound freshman shows present barrel whip and length through the zone backed by above-average bat speed for the class. Good use of the whole field with line-drives to both fields. There’s a chance for a quality hit tool here with budding power as he matures. It remains to be seen where Maginnis has the higher upside, but it’s without question that it’s significant on both fronts.
