We have a brand new content piece we are going to be rolling out throughout the off season. It is called "Then and Now". We will look back on players we have seen at events throughout the year and see the strides they have made in their game.

Check back daily to see a new player featured.

Then and Now

Florence showcased easy athleticism at the LakePoint Rising Stars ID in February and seemingly tranformed his game by the time we got to Junior Future Games. Starting with the arm strength in the infield he went from 68mph to 78mph. He dropped his 60-yard dash from 7.52 to 7.39. His hitting metrics were up across the board, but most impressive was his max exit velocity going from 83.9 to 88.0. Florence is going to be a fun one to watch develop with a smooth swing from the left side and can really hit.
