Athletic and compact with a strong, twitchy frame. Shows a quiet setup at the plate with a fluid, efficient swing and advanced barrel control. Keeps the hands inside and works through the zone with a direct, compact path, flashing consistent hard contact to the pull side. Handles velocity well and stays on plane against offspeed.

EV: 91 mph


Zachary Konrad (‘28, FL) • 5’10” • 180lb



Strong, athletic frame with a powerful lower half. Konrad generates explosive bat speed through a rhythmic load and twitchy hands. Uses a direct path to the ball and drives it with intent to the pull side. Shows middle-of-the-order potential with strong early indicators of raw power.


Nolan Slaymaker (‘28, FL) • 6’2” • 210lb



Projectable frame with a smooth, effortless swing. Slaymaker shows advanced feel for the barrel and sprays line drives with natural rhythm and balance. Solid bat-to-ball skills with emerging pop make him a strong follow offensively.

EV: 98 mph


Ethan Bissell (‘27, FL) • 6’1” • 180lb


LHP with a clean arm path and a polished three-pitch arsenal. Shows a smooth, athletic delivery with consistent tempo and lower-half drive. Commands the zone well and sequences effectively to keep hitters off balance. The fastball has late arm-side run, the changeup fades with deception, and the curveball offers depth with lateral action. Mature pitchability and feel for movement make Bissell a strong follow from the left side.

FB: 84–86 | 2100+ rpm | 10.9 IVB | 14.8 HB

Nelson Escalante (‘28, Intl. 🇩🇴) • 6’0” • 170lb



RHP with a lean, athletic build and clean mechanics. Works from a repeatable delivery with a compact arm stroke and natural tempo down the mound. The fastball shows late life with sneaky velocity, consistently challenging hitters in the zone. His sweeping breaking ball is a real weapon—tight spin and big horizontal break make it highly effective, especially when tunneled off the FB. Shows confident mound presence, and the command profile continues to improve. With more physical maturity, there’s significant upside, and the breaker could become a dominant swing-and-miss pitch at higher velocities.

FB: 84-87 | 2100 rpm | 14.3 IVB

SW: 67-70 | 2400 rpm | -9.5 IVB | -20.0 HB

EV: 91 mph


Logan Clark (‘26, VA) • 6’1” • 185lb


Physical left-handed hitter with a strong, athletic frame and advanced barrel feel. Uses a toe-tap timing mechanism and stays well-connected through his swing, driving this pitch for a triple. Already shows solid strength with more physical upside as he continues to develop.

Strong, muscular right-handed pitcher who moves well down the mound. He shows good lower half engagement with a high leg lift and delivers from a low three-quarter arm slot, creating tough angles and natural arm-side run. His delivery is clean and repeatable, and he consistently fills up the strike zone with advanced feel for command. He projects well thanks to his physicality, ability to throw strikes, and confidence in both pitches.

FB: 86–89 | fills the zone with arm-side life

SL: 78–80 | late break, quality second offering

Athletic right-handed hitter with a fluid, well-sequenced swing.

Logan Bristol (‘27, FL) • 6’3” • 210lb



Shows effortless command of a lively fastball and maintains velocity deep into outings. Bristol’s slider is sharp with vertical bite, and he mixes in a distinct curveball with steep, top-to-bottom break. His delivery is repeatable, and the arm works cleanly from a three-quarter slot. With plenty of room left to fill out and polish his arsenal, he’s a high-upside arm who’s already producing at a high level. Expect the velocity to continue climbing as he matures.

FB: 89–90 T91
SL: 82–84
CB: 73–75


https://play.ps-baseball.com/player-profile/baseball/bfe44ed3-0ff6-44a6-a0b2-a1dc0d984027


Carlos Martell (‘27, FL) • RHP • 5’8” 170



3.1 IP: 0H, 1BB, 5K, 0 ER

Intelligent pitcher with above average command, always thinking 2 pitches ahead. Pitching exclusively out of the stretch, has simple mechanics that he is able to repeat. Plus spin rate on all 3 pitches. Fastball with ride and 19+ inches IVB, gets on hitters fast. Sharp, downer slider that misses bats. Changeup with plus fade, drops off the table away from left-handed hitters. A consistent and dependable starting pitcher with advanced pitch ability who pounds the zone and always has a plan of attack. 


https://play.ps-baseball.com/player-profile/baseball/52f871bf-4049-4dc5-86f5-4a58cbb92a7d


Luke Peters (‘27, TX) • INF • 5’6” 165


Peters played a significant role for his team on Friday, going 2-for-3 at the plate, including the walk-off line drive single to left centerfield. He uses his body efficiently in his swing, creating torque with his hip separation and getting the barrel on plane early and often by allowing his body rotation to send his hands through the zone. Plays good defense with above average speed. Peters has plenty of room to grow and should continue to develop his power profile as he matures.
