Notes

Comments

3/02/24
OF MJ Gaines (Park Tudor) was another standout uncommitted outfielder. There is real upside in his 6-foot, 185 pound frame and he really looks the part of a next-level prospect. Gaines shows projectable bat strength with an exit velocity of 93 mph, and a swing geared towards middle of the field contact. Gaines turned in a 6.85 60 and reached 88 mph from the outfield, both above average tools at the moment.

Position Profile: OF/SS
Body: 5-11, 155-pounds. Projectable, athletic frame.
Hit: LHH. Balanced stance w/ hover type stride. Controls the forward move. Barrel turns deep in the zone and works upward.
Power: 89 max exit velocity, averaged 80.2 mph. 288' max distance.
Arm: RH. OF-86 mph. Long, loose arm from an OTT slot
Defense: Quick feet that work downhill, soft hands, clean exchange. Athletic
Run: 7.15 runner in the 60.
