One of the top overall performances of the day came from MIF Beni Espinosa (DePaul College Prep, 2025). To start, Espinosa put up some noteworthy numbers in the athletic testing portion of the event. He marked a 60-yard dash time of 7.26 and also reached a max jump height of 30.7”; both of which are intriguing given his age and his stronger 5-foot-10, 180-pound frame. During his BP round, Espinosa really turned heads with the ease and fluidity of his smooth right-handed swing. Metrically, his hardest hit ball of the day came off at 94.6 mph and he averaged 90.5 mph, speaking to just how much he was on the barrel throughout his round. Defensively, the middle infielder is an athletic mover with sure-handed actions and paired that with an accurate arm that has the ability to throw from multiple slots when needed.
Positional Profile: SS/2B
Body: 5-10, 180-pounds. Developing strength throughout the frame.
Hit: RHH. Tall, balanced base. Controlled leg lift. Balanced finish. Strong hands, flat bat path, on the barrel consistently and drove the ball to all fields. 71.1 mph bat speed with 18 G’s of rotational acceleration.
Power: 95 max exit velocity, averaged 90.5 mph. 344’ max distance.
Arm: RH. INF - 79 mph. Short arm action. Flashed carry and played accurately.
Defense: Steady infield actions, works around the baseball, plays low to the ground with confident hands and ability to make plays on the move; smooth double play turn.
Run: 7.26 runner in the 60.
Uncommitted. 5-foot-10, 160-pound right-handed hitting middle infielder played second base and batted towards the bottom of the lineup. Espinosa collected two hits within his first two at-bats of the game and walked in his third. Hit a sharp single past the shortstop in his first at-bat while ahead in the count which helped drive in the first run of the game. He tied the game in his next at-bat when he took an 0-2 pitch and lined another sharp single to left field. Starts in a balanced, slightly open setup and small toe-tap stride. Swing is compact with a line-drive approach while staying gap-to-gap.
