Mesa Summer ID: Quick Hits (5/25)
May 29, 2025
MESA, AZ — On Thursday, May 29th, the Prep Baseball Arizona staff continued on the Summer Tour with a stop at Desert Ridge High School for the Mesa Summer ID. With prospects in attendance from the 2026–2029 classes, this event served as an early summer checkpoint for players looking to update their profiles ahead of a busy travel ball season. The day featured a full pro-style workout, including laser-timed 60s, defensive evaluations, BP rounds tracked by TrackMan and Blast Motion, and bullpens with pitch data captured throughout. Several players stood out with strong showings and tools that will make them follows heading into the summer. Below, we highlight a handful of the top performers from the day.

Austin Smith C / RHP / IMG Academy, AZ / 2026Austin is a lean, athletic catcher with raw tools and a strong foundation. On the mound, he sits 86 with a quick arm, showing flashes of a sharp slider and feel for a changeup. Behind the plate, he’s physical with 1.98–2.00 pop times and an 83 mph arm, though accuracy is still developing.

Brock Reichwein LHP / Perry , AZ / 2027Brock is a long, projectable 6 '5 left-hander with a whippy arm and athletic delivery. He sits 85–86, topping at 87, with a heavy fastball that plays up. The slider shows tight spin in the low 70s (2304 max rpm), and he mixes in a splitter at 78–79 with some feel. The arm can be late at times, but there's clear upside in the frame and arm speed. Plenty of room to fill out and continue trending up. |

Micah Tiggas C / 3B / Empire High School, AZ / 2026Micah is a 6 '2, 175-pound catcher with a strong build and above-average athleticism. He swings it with intent, posting a 103 mph max exit velocity and 382 ft peak distance, with loose hands and some whip through the zone. The swing works best down and in, though the load can be more consistent. Behind the plate, he shows 1.96–2.07 pop times with a 76 mph arm, and adds versatility with time at third. Solid athlete with a 7.18 60 and 24.8” vertical. |

At the plate, Blake has a clean path middle-away with a 94 mph max EV and 362 ft peak distance, though he can spin off inside pitches. |

Hawk Licari LHP / OF / Pinnacle, AZ / 2027Hawk is a twitchy left-handed arm with athletic traits and room to grow. He sits 80–83 with arm-side run and occasional cut, mixing in a low-70s slider with solid shape and a developing changeup. The delivery is a bit crossfire with some effort, but he repeats it well. At the plate, Hawk flashes real juice with a 99 mph max EV and 389 ft peak distance, though he can leak early and get caught out front. Strong foundation with upside on both sides of the ball. |

Anthony Milo 1B / 3B / Salpointe Catholic, AZ / 2026Anthony is a physical right-handed bat at 6-4, 222 pounds with real strength in the box. He posted a 104 mph max exit velocity and averaged nearly 92, consistently hitting balls hard. The swing works best when he stays through the middle, though he tends to favor the pull side. Defensively, he shows an 82 mph arm across the infield. Bat-first profile with power that stands out. |

Noah Pozar LHP / 1B / Centennial, AZ / 2027Noah is a strike-throwing lefty with a simple, low-effort delivery and feel for his mix. He sits 74–76 with a 3/4 arm slot and mixes in a 64–65 mph curveball and a low-spin changeup. The arm works fine, though there’s room to move quicker down the mound and create more intent. At the plate, Noah shows some rhythm with a max EV of 88 and a 291 ft peak distance, but can get around balls when late. Still developing physically, but shows a foundation to build on. |
