2/24/24
OF Josh Morgan (Fenwick, 2027) continues to look the part as one of the premier athletes in the 2027 class. Currently ranked No. 2 in the state, No. 36 nationally, Morgan started his day by cruising to a 6.63 in the 60, reaching up to 20.6 mph for his peak run speed while also recording a 33.8” max vertical jump. The right-handed hitter has some rhythm in his hands, working with a direct path to the ball with intent to lift to his pull-side. High-follow prospect that is also a highly touted football recruit.
6/09/23

Morgan displayed pop when he sent a solo shot deep out to left for the Sparks on Friday morning. Ultra-athletic frame with present strength, as well as room to fill out as he matures. Above average hand-speed allows Morgan to create impressive jump off the barrel, and it should only continue to tick up as he matures physically. 

6/08/23

A 2022 Junior Future Games alum, Morgan had an impressive day at the plate for the Sparks. From the right side of the dish, the physically imposing hitter went 3-for-4 with three RBIs. A taller setup with a slightly open stance, the hands start up close to the head before loading back with the lower half and moving quick through the zone. Was on the barrel with an uphill path. 

4/12/23

OF Josh Morgan (Fenwick) emerged as a high-follow in the class, showing well-above average tools across the board. Morgan has a 6-foot-1, 175-pound frame and opened eyes running a 6.67 laser-timed 60, the best of the event. He then proceeded to take a polished, strong round of BP, routinely barreling baseballs up the middle of the field, working on the barrel and to both gaps with authority. He also moved with a purpose in the outfield and showed a strong arm that topped at 85 mph. Morgan will be a name to follow closely as he starts working his way through high school.

Morgan is physically advanced for his age and will continue to get stronger with age. Offensively, showed a very mature approach with a simple and efficient swing that stays through the zone very well. His advanced power for his age was something that was on display as he smoked a three-run homerun where he stayed through an inside fastball and took it over the center field fence. While patrolling the outfield he showed athletic actions and is a toolsy player that consistently put together a strong weekend for the Sparks.
