William Bentley: OF/RHP, (2024) Westborough, MA. 6-foot-2, 185-pound. 

5-foot-11, 140-pound right handed hitting outfielder and infielder. Ran a 7.62 sixty at the event. The approach in the outfield is online and athletic, throwing 72 mph. The approach in the infield needs to be smoothed out with active feet so he can work through the ball as he catches and transfers into the throwing phase. The setup at the plate is even in base and the front foot steps into the swing. The hands work free and clean to contact. There is effort in the swing, as he gets physically stronger that should lessen as he develops. 

INF Velocity- 69 mph

OF Velocity- 72 mph
