Brody Beam (‘26, FL) • RHP/OF • Uncommitted • 6’1 145
On the bump he starts from an upright and relaxed stance pre-pitch, with hands low. He comes with a big leg kick, and keeps his weight balanced. Comes from a high ¾ arm slot, loose and whippy arm. Wiry, projectable, frame that should fill out and come with a jump in velo.

Brendan Reynolds (‘26, FL) • RHP • Uncommitted • 6’1” 140
Reynolds led the charge in the Florida Sluggers’ 4-inning victory on Friday, pitching a CG shutout allowing just 1 hit and striking out 5. He showed some 2-way ability as well, collecting 2 hits and scoring twice. On the mound, he has a funky delivery, using a very high leg kick before dropping down and driving towards the plate. Generated got weak contact with a SNKer that dropped off the table late and collected swings and misses with a depthy CH. He mixed in a CB to round out his 3 pitch arsenal. Projectable frame that should fill out and and he should see a jump in velo.

Jovan Familia (‘27, FL) • OF • Uncommitted • 5’8” 160
Switch hitting OF contributed in all facets of the game on Friday. At the plate, he reached base 3 times, scored 3 runs and drove in a run. He showed great speed and instincts on the basepaths, stealing a base and advancing on twice on dirt ball reads. He showed above average range on multiple plays in CF, including a diving catch to his right which preserved the shutout for his team.

Samuel Grande (‘27, FL) • OF • 6’2” 185 lb
Samuel Grande continues to show mature bat-to-ball skills with a short, efficient move to contact and the ability to stay compact with two strikes. He’s produced in leverage spots and repeats a balanced lower half with quiet head movement. The swing is direct with quick hands, and the barrel stays on plane long enough to cover both velocity and spin. Grande’s physical frame, controlled bat path, and gap-to-gap approach point to middle-of-the-order potential as he adds strength.

Jacob Cherry (‘28, FL) • RHP/3B • 5’4” 140
5IP: 1H, 1BB, 0ER, 5K
Cherry demonstrated pitchability and above average control on Friday, pitching 5 shutout innings, allowing just 2 baserunners and striking out 5. He used a sinker-slider pairing to induce weak contact all day, while still striking out a batter per inning. He has an effortless delivery and attacks hitters with a bulldog mentality. Cherry has a projectable frame and there is more velocity to be added as he matures.

Jacob Giannie (‘27, FL) • RHP • Uncommitted • 5’9” 143
5.2 IP: 1H, 4K, 0ER
Giannie earned the win in his start on Friday, pitching into the 6th inning, allowing 0 runs and just 1 base hit. Giannie has a high effort delivery pitching from an over the top arm slot and working downhill. FB-SL were his weapons of choice, using a FB with cut and a sharp 2-plane slider that the hitters couldn’t touch when thrown below the zone. Giannie has a projectable frame and is an intriguing pitcher to keep an eye on in the 2027 class

Alejandro Broz (‘26, FL) • RHP • Uncommitted • 6’5” 220
4 IP: 0H, 2BB, 0ER, 6K
Broz carved through the opposing lineup, not allowing a hit through 4 shutout innings while striking out 6 batters. He possesses a prototypical starting pitcher build, standing 6’5” and weighing 220. He works exclusively out of the stretch pitching from a low 3/4 slot. The FB sits 84-85 and tops 87, while looking faster than that due to the great extension he creates. The slider, sitting 72-73, is sharp with 2 plane break. It is a true swing and miss pitch. Broz is a big-bodied power pitcher who will be part of a college rotation in the near future.

Drew Spychalla (‘26, WI) • OF/LHP • Uncommitted • 5’10” 150
2-2, BB, R, RBI
Spychalla did his job batting out of the 3-hole on Friday, getting on base 3 times with 2 hits including a hard-hit 2B to RCF. He has a lean, athletic frame with room to grow. He has quick hands at the plate with a compact swing that allows him to catch up to the high FB and adjust to the low and away offspeed. Spychalla is an uncommitted player from Wisconsin with impressive bat to ball skills and a projectable frame.

Ty Quinn (‘28, FL) • SS • 5’11” 140
Quinn had a solid all-around day in Midland’s 5-4 win on Friday. In the field, he showed smooth actions with quick feet and soft hands. At the plate, he collected a pair of hits and scored a run. He sets up at the plate with an upright stance and high hands. He uses a small leg lift and long stride to create balance in his swing, before hitting hard line drives to all fields. On the base paths he stole second, scored a run and made a good read on a wild pitch, advancing to third. Quinn possesses a well-rounded game with a projectable frame. He is a SS from the 2028 class to keep an eye on.

Jayden Wagner (‘27, FL) • RHP/MIF • Uncommitted • 5’7” 145
3.1 IP: 1H, 0BB, 0ER, 5K
Wagner earned the win for Bay Area in their 10-0 4-inning victory on Friday. He pitched into the 4th inning, allowing just 1 hit while striking out 5 and walking none. Wagner uses a high leg kick, coils inward, and delivers the pitch from a 3/4 arm slot. He is able to repeat his delivery consistently and pitch to all quadrants effectively. He throws a FB with sink and arm side run to induce weak contact and strikes hitters out with a sharp slider that is effective down in the zone. Wagner is an athletic pitcher with above average control and stuff that plays up.

Giovanni Osorio (‘28, FL) • OF/RHP • Uncommitted • 5’10 166lbs
The lanky righty showed an ability to have a mature approach in the field and an ability to have mature at-bats. The outfielder starts his swing in a compact & athletic stance, with some weight shifted back. In his balanced swing, he showed great hand-eye coordination while also keeping a short swing that plays. He creates an amazing stretch in his body with his upper half & lower half, utilizing his core in his load as well. He has a short yet effective finish in which he keeps his hands short to the pitch. With a strong base in his legs, mixed with his ability to use entire body in swing, it’ll be awesome to see how the righty plays in the near future.

Samuel Rallo (‘29, FL) • C/2B • Uncommitted • 5’5 125lbs
Rallo is an athletic, left-handed hitting catcher that showed an impressive outing both in the box as well as behind the plate. Showing himself to be a “wall”, he also showed ability to use bigger parts of the field. Slightly open stance, with a leg kick to trigger timing stayed connected well throughout the swing. Showed clutch ability as well by bringing in an RBI in a tie game.

Sebastian Davila (‘27, FL) • SS • Uncommitted • 5’8” 150
Physically gifted player who makes the game look easy. Davila is very smooth at SS, with nimble feet and a soft glove. He fields and throws the ball all in one motion and can throw out of different arm slots with a strong arm. He is a plus runner, posting a 4.3 home to first time on a double, where he rounded the base rather than running straight through it. At the plate, his hands and hips work together, creating a one-piece swing and an excellent power position at contact. He sends the bat through the zone with quick hands and a direct path. Davila has a high ceiling with a frame that has a lot of room to grow.

2B: 89 mph
1B: 93 mph
Poznanski demonstrated an advanced power profile in his team’s 10-0 win on Friday. He doubled in the first inning, hitting the ball to the wall in LF. Later in the game he drove in 2 runs with a hard line drive single that left the bat at 93 mph. He did so from a 2 strike approach, showing natural raw power. Even in a 2K approach, Poznanski knows how to utilize his legs and be on balance at contact. He has a projectable frame with even more power to come as he fills out.

Andrew Baker (‘27, FL) • SS • 5’11” 150lb
Andrew Baker paired impact and feel for the game, punching an inside-the-park HR to deep LF and later pulling off a straight steal of home. He uses a delayed load to sit into the backside, keeps the weight back, and lets quick hands work through the zone. The swing is compact with intent and he plays fast on the bases. High-motor, high-IQ profile with growing run-producing juice.

Brody Crosby (‘27, FL) • LHP • 5'7" • 188lb
Crosby spun four no-hit frames with seven strikeouts, pounding the zone and finishing hitters with a deep 11–7 curveball. He drives off the backside to work downhill and repeats a clean, efficient arm action that hints at more velocity to come. Strike throwing, feel for spin, and whiff rates all point to a future starter look.

Jacob Isler (‘29, FL) • RHP/MIF • 5’6" 110lb
The RHP showed poise on the mound, and proved he can go deep in games while being efficient and deceptive. He sets up in a full windup, upright and relaxed. Getting into his delivery, he showcases incredible hip serration with a high leg kick while also keeping his backside engaged. Coming downhill from an OT arm slot, he showed looseness in his arm, contributing to his slight gloveside run on FB. Should be a great pitcher to be aware of in the near future.

Bryson Nicol (‘26, FL) • 1B • Uncommitted • 6’4 185lb
Nicol showed an impressive display of bat to ball control, and strong at-bats in today’s afternoon matchup. The righty came into the box with a relaxed yet aggressive approach and poise. Pre-pitch, he features a relaxed, upright stance with some rhythm while keeping his legs low. He has a slight coil in load, while having a slight leg kick, keeping his hands high and weight shifted back. A compact swing, he does an amazing job of keeping hands inside and staying direct to the ball, producing power despite having a short extension.

Jackson Bernhard (‘26, FL) • OF • Uncommitted • 6’ 160lbs
The strong outfielder showcased a great amount of pop in his at-bats today, while also staying disciplined enough to make decisions quickly in his swing. The righty comes in with a relaxed stance, keeping weight back and barrel head-height. Has a compact & controlled load, in which he uses his core and creates a nice stretch between his upper and lower half. He showed ability to get his front foot down with great timing, being ready for any pitch thrown. With great extension, he hit an 89 EV HR to straightaway LF in a line. As he fills out even more, it’ll be great to see what the power outfielder can be.
1-2, 1 run HR, 2R, BB
Robert Oare (‘27, FL) • Uncommitted • 6’3” 165lb
Robert Oare showed an athletic, compact move in the box with a short stride and fast hip rotation, timing a fastball and driving an RBI double into the right-center gap. The barrel stays on a direct, level path with quick hands through contact, and he finishes with balance to carry the middle of the field. The approach is aggressive but under control, and his ability to impact early in counts points to a run-producing skill set as the strength continues to come.

Christian Gaines (‘29, FL) • RHP • 5’11” 141lb
Lean, athletic right-hander with a live low three-quarter slot and free and easy tempo. Gaines works downhill with efficient lower-half drive and a repeatable, smooth delivery that creates late life. The fastball rides at the top of the zone and the slider has true sweep, functioning as a wipeout option that tunnels off the heater. Starter traits pop in the strike quality and whiff rates, and the frame leaves room for meaningful velocity growth.

Armando Monday (‘27, FL) 3B • Uncommitted • 5’11” 185lb
Physical right-handed bat with easy opposite-field juice. Monday uses a controlled leg kick to load the back hip, sets the barrel early, and unleashes fast hands for a triple roped into the right-center gap at 91 EV. The swing is compact with a slight uphill finish that creates natural loft without selling out for lift. There is present strength and room for more, projecting gap power that should translate at the next level.

Jack Hillary (‘28, FL) SS • 6’3” 175lb
Lanky 6’3 right-handed hitter who leverages long levers for easy carry to the pull side. Hillary stays inside the baseball with a tight turn and balanced lower half, producing consecutive ground-rule doubles to deep left. The move is rhythmic with a clean weight shift, and the bat path shows slight uphill through the zone for loft without losing plate coverage. Strength gains should turn the current easy backspin into consistent extra-base damage.

Simmons uncoils with quick hands and a direct path, producing a loud two-RBI triple to deep right field. The swing shows rhythm, barrel control, and gap-to-gap intent, and he carries through contact with a stable base. There is clear bat speed now and more on the way as the frame matures, pointing to extra-base potential across the outfield alleys.

Over-the-top arm action with an upright, stable base and a repeatable, efficient delivery. Santeliz worked downhill and filled the zone for a complete-game shutout, pairing a firm fastball with a true downer 12–6 curveball that he landed for strikes and expanded below the zone for chase. The tempo is smooth and the direction to the plate is clean, creating consistent release and quality strikes. Strike throwing, depth on the breaking ball, and present durability point to a reliable rotation profile as the strength continues to climb.
