Caleb Kahn ( ‘29, FL) • LHP • 5’9” • 150lb


Final Line: 2IP, 0H, 0R, 0BB, 5K


Kahn started the game for CBU 2029 United Navy, and was absolutely dominant on the mound. Topping out at 76mph on the FB, he overpowered hitter after hitter, striking out 5 of the 6 batters he faced. Mostly only using his FB, he was able to locate in, out, and up to get hitters to whiff. A very intriguing young arm to follow through the Palm Beach Open and after.

Mason Williams (‘30, FL) • C • 5’7” • 120lbs


Lanky RHH / C, a lot of room to grow and fill out. No wasted movements when throwing down, above average arm, compact arm motion and explosive finish. Helped his team by throwing 3 runners out during his first game. Also, able to run the bases, stole two bags and scored a couple for his team in their win this morning. His presence behind the plate is noticeable and will be a good player to keep an eye on as he continues to mature and grow.

Andrew Cone (‘28, FL) • RHP • 6’ 165lb


Showed polish and pitchability across five solid innings. Retired the first seven batters he faced and struck out five in the first two innings. FB topped at 76 mph with 1800 rpm, and he spun a slow-breaking CB with depth (-12 IVB, -7 HB). Attacked the zone with confidence and kept hitters off balance with well-timed pitch sequencing. Efficient, composed presence with signs of continued growth.

In the 3-inning run rule victory for USA Prime Tampa, Coil pitched all 3 innings, allowing 0 runs and striking out 4. He mixed a fastball and changeup to keep hitters off balance. Pitching out of a high ¾ arm slot, Coil’s changeup had good fade and was a weapon against left-handed hitters. 



Stat Line:

3IP: 2H, 2BB, 4K, 0ER


https://play.ps-baseball.com/player-profile/baseball/360f6422-94a7-47c5-b80b-b21dde7deb9e


Angel Nieves (‘29, FL) • SS • 6’0” • 130lb


Nieves showed his ability to do damage to all parts of the field in the X Team 2029’s win. Nieves put together a 2-3 day, jumping on the first pitch and singling to right field in his first at-bat. He then put together a good second at-bat and used an effective 2-strike approach to send a single out to LCF. A solid player to follow for the remainder of the tournament.

John Henry (‘29, FL) • RHP • 5’9” 125


Henry came out of the bullpen for Florida Elite and delivered a much-needed 4 shutout innings to keep his team in the game. Henry gets great extension on the mound, utilizing a drop and drive delivery. He throws from a ¾ slot using a very compact arm motion, which helps him hide the ball from the hitter. Henry has a good feel for pitching and will continue to improve as he physically matures. 


4IP: 1H, 2BB, 3K, 0ER


https://play.ps-baseball.com/player-profile/baseball/a2800a7f-c4b2-42b7-950f-1dcbeb27a


Raul Lazo (‘29, FL) • 1B/OF • 6’0” 170


Big, strong right-handed hitter with plus raw power. Starts out of wide stance and uses a toe tap load. Has a handsy swing and compact bat path. Lazo puts up impressive barrels, and that says even more about his raw power considering he uses a toe tap instead of a big leg kick. Lazo is an exciting player to watch as he continues to fill out and add more strength to his already impressive power profile. 


Stat Line:

1 for 2, 2R, 1RBI, 2SB


https://play.ps-baseball.com/player-profile/baseball/89d48daa-4c3c-40fe-b5c9-dfd030e2e813


Luke Sauer (‘30,FL) • C • 5’8 • 160lb


Athletic RHH C with strong frame and room to continue to grow. Quick release from behind the plate that resulted in a runner caught trying to take 2nd base. Commanded the game well behind the plate for such a young age. Sauer was also impressive at the plate this morning collecting multiple hits to all fields.


2/2, 2R, 2RBI, 1BB

Mason Suarez (‘30, FL) • RHP • 5’8 • 130lb


CG / 4 IP / 2 BB / 2 H / 0 R / 2 K 


Lanky RHP with a lot of room to grow. Works with a medium leg lift, full stroke and H3/4 arm angle. Strike thrower, high weak contact pitcher. Moves well down the mound. Mason was a key piece in their win today. He kept the batters guessing and with great command and good pitch mixing he controlled the game. As he continues to develop himself, grow and mature he will be a player to be on the look for. A lot of upside and there will be a spike in his velo as he continues to grow. 


https://play.ps-baseball.com/player-profile/baseball/fdb9b640-7be6-4f2b-b374-df44ea153d41


Josh Apicella (‘30, FL)


2 for 3 / 2 SB / 2 RBI / 3 R

EV: 88mph / 35° LA / 287 ft

EV: 86mph / 36° LA / 287 ft


Lanky RHH, with tons of room to grow. Works with an open stance and high leg lift and long stride. Creates a lot of rotational force as he swings. Sneaky power. With a phenomenal day at the plate finding consistent barrels two of them over 85mph EV one of them being a 2RBI double that left the bat at 86mph and a sac fly that was 88mph EV. Not only was he a threat at the plate but also at the bases, stealing two bags and scoring three runs. Will definitely be an impactful player in the future. 


https://play.ps-baseball.com/player-profile/baseball/c8706066-4f11-479d-bf96-863e94b2e3ed


Robert Deignan (‘29, FL) • RHP


Final Line: 5IP, 1H, 0R, 4BB, 9K


Deignan impressed many with his strong tall build with lots of power behind his delivery. He was able to run his FB up to 84mph, while utilizing his SL and CB throughout his outing to keep hitters guessing. His 9K came mostly swinging at high heaters, as he used his ride to his advantage. Other came on off speed pitches that hitters just were not able to pick up, and watched them go by. The ‘29 grad is arguably one of the top pitchers to follow in this tournament on days to come.
