2/21/23

Georgia State Commit. 6-foot-5, 215 pounds. This pure beast from New Jersey has made quick work of Georgia competition and has improved greatly as a hitter over the past year. Facing the best arms the country has to offer has undoubtedly sped up Parker’s development as a hitter. He had the highest impact barrel of the entire GDC by far, with a 105 EV moonshot that traveled 386 feet! What’s even more positive on the outlook of Big Sam’s future career is that he might’ve hit that ball further with a wood bat. A metal bat looks like an absolute toothpick in his gargantuan frame, and it almost seems illegal for him to use! It’s a scary sight for opposing arms when he connects with one, and his future top of the scale raw power is already easily plus. That's the wild part, he’s going to get so much stronger! Sam really impressed us with his ability to decelerate and slow the game down vs secondary pitches, and had some good AB’s vs LHP’s. The future is looking bright for this 2023 draft follow.
