QUICK HITS:

Dalton Sherry C / 3B / Frederick, CO / 2027 Sherry is a projectable 6’1”, 157-pound junior with plenty of room to add strength as he continues to develop. He shows clean actions behind the plate with a quick release, recording a 72 mph throw from the catcher’s crouch, and his defensive foundation projects well moving forward. Offensively, Sherry produced a 92 mph top exit velocity, and his 6.75 60-yard dash stands out as strong athleticism for his size. With his blend of projection, defensive polish, and emerging offensive tools, Sherry is a name to keep a close eye on this spring.

Cole Federspiel OF / 2B / Holy Family, CO / 2028 Federspiel is a young outfielder who already checks several projection boxes, highlighted by outlier speed for his age after turning in a 6.76 60-yard dash. At the plate, he shows an actively developing bat with quick, lively hands, and there’s clear room for added strength as he continues to mature physically. The athletic foundation stands out, and it gives his offensive profile plenty of upside moving forward. As he grows into his frame, the Holy Family outfielder offers intriguing long-term projection and is a name worth monitoring over the coming years.

Dawson Mcinnes OF / 1B / Durango, CO / 2026 Rankings  StateRank: 104 / POS: 18 Mcinnes continues to trend in the right direction and followed up a standout showing at the 2025 Fall Invite with another strong day at Sunday's Northern Colorado Preseason ID. The Durango outfielder brings a blend of raw strength and speed that plays well in a projection-focused profile, highlighted by a 98 mph top exit velocity and a 6.86 60-yard dash. That toolset translated into real production last spring, when he hit .427 with 11 extra-base hits and 24 stolen bases over 88 plate appearances at the 4A level. With proven performance, developing power, and athletic traits that should continue to sharpen, Mcinnes remains an intriguing uncommitted senior.

Keenein Nix C / SS / Mead, CO / 2028 Nix put together a well-rounded showing, standing out for his athletic base and the projection still left in his game. He ran a 6.95 60-yard dash and showed a strong defensive foundation behind the plate, flashing a 73 mph throwing velocity that plays at the position. Offensively, his swing is controlled and balanced, with developing pop that should continue to emerge as he adds strength. At 6-foot, 184 pounds, Nix already has a solid physical base with actively developing athleticism, and his continued growth makes him a young prospect to keep an eye on moving forward.

Liam Delgado RHP / OF / Windsor, CO / 2027 Liam Delgado emerged as one of the clear winners of the event, drawing attention with a fastball that has taken a noticeable step forward, topping out at 86 mph. He showed feel for a full mix on the mound, mixing in a sinker, curveball, and changeup that point to a starter’s profile moving forward. There’s additional upside still coming, as Delgado also posted a 92 mph throwing velocity from the outfield, suggesting more arm strength is likely to translate to the mound. As a junior, he’s well positioned to make noise this spring, and with warmer weather ahead, Delgado looks like a strong candidate to see his velocity continue to climb.

Wyatt Satterly RHP / SS / Frederick, CO / 2028 Satterly presented a unique look on the mound from the right side, using a lower arm slot that adds deception to a fastball that topped out at 83.3 mph. The sophomore flashed upside with both a developing fastball and changeup, and he showed the ability to manipulate his arm slot at times to create different looks for hitters. His fastball averaged 12.1 inches of horizontal movement, further enhancing the pitch’s deceptive qualities. Satterly also showed two-way upside, pairing his feel in the infield with a near-90 mph top exit velocity and a 7.09 60-yard dash. With his combination of deception, versatility, and projection, the Frederick underclassman has the look of a potential breakout candidate heading into spring 2026.

Eli Savage 3B / RHP / Horizon, CO / 2027 Eli Savage brings intriguing two-way upside to the table, offering a skill set that continues to trend upward. At 6-foot, 167 pounds, there’s projection still left in the frame, and his strength already shows up offensively with a 93 mph top exit velocity. On the mound, Savage works his fastball up to 82 mph and shows advanced feel for his full mix, pairing it with a changeup and curveball while consistently filling up the strike zone. With his ability to impact the game on both sides of the ball and continued physical growth ahead, Savage is a name that could take a meaningful step forward as his development continues.

Jordan Spitz 1B / Fossil Ridge, CO / 2027 Rankings  StateRank: 131 / POS: 13 Spitz was one of the standout performers of the event, leading all participants in this event with a top exit velocity of 99.3 mph. The junior, standing 6-foot and 220 pounds, combines noticeable strength with natural pop in the bat, all while maintaining a clean, efficient swing path through the baseball. With his present power and the physical tools to grow even stronger, Spitz profiles as a hitter with future projection and worth following as he progresses.
