MIF Luke Fordonski (Downers Grove North, 2025) stands in a lean and athletic 6-foot, 165-pound frame. The right-handed hitter produced the second highest sweet spot percentage (80%) of the day and one of the highest peak exit velocities (90.8 mph). A direct and flat path helped him send line drives (50%) to all fields. He’s a smooth defender with quick feet that work around the baseball with soft hands to pair. Fordonski ran a 7.39 in the 60-yard dash.
Positional Profile: SS/2B
Body: 5-11, 165-pounds. Athletic, projectable build.
Hit: RHH. Narrow start with an open front foot, hands load back into a vertical barrel set, short stride. Simple, direct path, uphill through the zone, pull-side gap tendencies and strong wrists.
Power: 87 max exit velocity, averaged 74.6 mph. 239’ max distance.
Arm: RH. INF - 75 mph. Short arm action, 3/4 slot.
Defense: Clean defender, plays with body control and comfort on the move.
Run: 7.47 runner in the 60.
