9/1/15- South Dakota State commit. Played solid defense. Triple over center-fielders head on a hanging breaking ball. Consistent 4.5 runner home-to-first.
6/16/15- MN Top Prospect
6-foot, 155-pound left-handed hitting shortstop. 7.03 runner. Loud contact during B.P. Gap to gap approach with some tendencies to try and yank balls at times. Quick hands and drives baseball with authority. 82 mph exit velocity off tee. Thompson has some of the best infield actions in the 2016 class in Minnesota. Above average carry and accuracy across the diamond. Quick feet and good glove. Balance and body control is well above average. 83 mph arm strength across.
2/28/15- MN Preseason All-State
5-foot-11, 145-pound shortstop. Thin build. Ran a 7.25 60. Left-handed hitter with aggressive approach at plate. Strides slightly closed. Shows loose actions in swing. One of better B.P. rounds of event. Hard contact middle-way. Will lean back into swing. Would benefit by staying down and through swing and create better extension and separation. 75 mph exit velocity off tee. Light on his feet defensively. Shows good actions and ability with glove. Plays with energy. Average tools. Throws show carry and plus accuracy. Once he begins to fill out and mature physically; tools should continue to improve. High Follow for Spring/Summer season.
