Team Indiana Takeaways: Position Players

July 26, 2025
Cooper Trinkle
Scouting Director

The intrigue with this Team Indiana squad began with the bats. The bats amongst this class are ahead of the arms to this point, making this squad a good one to watch for the 400+ recruiters in attendance. I feel bullish on several leaving Atlanta, while also reaffirmed with several others that we entered with highly-touted.

Takeaways

+ Several hitters on this group will be busy August 1st, with the two highest touted players on roster, SS Isaiah Snavely and CF Drake McClurg living up to the hype. Snavely had a prospect-defining moment on Day 3 with an absolute no-doubter spun true down the RF line for a homer, and a pair of highly-impactful batting practice rounds where those in attendance were all eyes. His 6.6 60-yard dash further validated the aggressive athletes' high ceiling offensive profile, as well. When synced, its one of the more electric swings that the country has to offer in the 2027 class and there is real aptitude here for making adjustments. 

- McClurg was the most productive bat in total, ending the weekend with a homer, double, and another couple of base knocks for a .500 weekend. He missed the workout while splitting football duties, but likely would've shown 6.5-6.6 speed there with a recorded 6.59 time shown best in CF. He can really go get it in center and there is at least above average arm strength from the outfield. The simplicity to the impactful stroke plays from both sides with real jump blossoming in the barrel that proved to be accurate as well against the nation's best. There is real dynamic ability here with flashes of 5 tools shining at times in-game. 

+ OF Clark Bucher was a big winner on the weekend looking the part of a premier bat in this class. The 6-foot-2, 164 pound frame has big time upside with a narrow hipped, broad shouldered athletic look. He uncoils with a simple, loose-wristed stroke from both sides with occasional length that likely cleans up as he grows stronger. The impacts (96.3 EV) speak to the twitch in the lean frame with a real chance power develops. He was productive in-game with a single on night one, and a hammered double into the wind on Day 3 that clanged off the wall and left the bat at 94 mph. Bucher leaves Atlanta with the largest impact left on the position side. 

+ A trio of high-upside infielders provided a quality look for Team Indiana throughout the week in SS Parker Robinson, 3B/P Camden Moore, and 3B/SS Ben Canada. Robinson came in as the highest-touted of the group, a 6-foot-4, 200 pound left-side presence. His batting practice included gap2gap strength with impacts north of 95 mph and he took a proper-looking infield round with playable arm strength from the left side. His best swing in-game produced a 98 mph double to LCF (clip below) where he showed in front of plenty of eyes the offensive upside that he has. Moore provided the same feel, big power potential in the bat that showed with strength in batting practice and a 99 mph knock during game No. 2 of the weekend. The 6-foot-5, 205 pounder showed the best average bat speed of the group during batting practice, to pair with the best infield arm of the group (91 mph). There is serious arm talent with Moore that intrigues on both sides of the ball, but I leave bullish on the power potential offensively. 

- Ben Canada was a real buzzy name throughout the week. The 6-foot-2ish frame oozes projection and there is serious silk to the offensive operation. He hits from the left-side with flashes of easy juice produced, and he took a couple swings throughout the week to shows hints of more to come. Defensively, the actions really look the part when the ball is between his feet. His hands work, as does the arm, with a power hitting 3B profile feeling like the best projections for now. There is still a chance for him to stay up the middle as he adds strength/explosiveness, but the pure upside intrigued plenty and will likely garner him plenty of attention in the coming days...

+ For the "undersized is the new 6'4" crowd, CF/C Mason Meyer and SS Liam Delp provided bouncy looks for Team Indiana. Both were highlighted as workout winners, with those reports found here. Meyer was the more productive of the two during game, batting .500 on the week after going 4-for-8 on the week (clips below). The swing plays with compact explosiveness and a more line-drive type approach as opposed to boom/bust. The pure bat-to-ball hit tool is one of the best in the class, and is only elevated by a team-best run times including a sub-4.1 H-1st in-game. He proved to be a true CF throughout the summer, and at this event, while also adding intrigue with above average abilities behind the dish. Delp's pure athleticism and twitch were on full display in the workout, turning in a team-best 101 mph peak exit velocity with a 6.6 60 to pair. The offensive abilities culiminated in a rocketed single during gameplay on night 2, and he showcased the same premier athleticism that he showed in workouts while playing on the dirt, and in CF, over the 3 games he performed in.

+ The primary backstops in this group, Luke Brown and Jackson Harris, showed very well for themselves. Brown turned in a very strong workout with a T5 catcher velocity amongst all Future Games participants, while also putting together the most consistent round of batting practice amongst all Indiana natives. He parlayed a strong workout with a 4-for-7 week at the dish, proving the barrel accuracy he showed in batting practice was no fluke. The 6-foot-4 frame has ample room for growth, and he showed the same arm strength and carry from the crouch to gun down a pair of would-be stealers in gameplay. Harris had his moment on night No. 2, blasting a majestic homer to LF (clip below) that caught the eye of several recruiters in attendance. The physical 6-foot-2ish frame really looks the part as he is standing in the left-handed batters' box and there is real silk to the operation when synced. There is arm strength to pair with a flashy offensive profile and he is athletic laterally behind the dish too.

+ Two quiet performers to note were SS Brayden Ring and OF Colin Axel-Adams. Axel-Adams showed off a strong mix of looseness and barrel strength in batting practice with a rounded 100 mph exit velocity that pairs well with a sub-7 60-yard dash. There is hints of a speed/power profile for the twitchy 6-footer, and he translated it in-game with a pair of 95+ knocks through the middle in game. There is room for the lean, lengthier frame to fill out that pairs with a very intriguing profile, and real instincts shine on both the bases and at the dish. Ring showed similiar intrigue, a sure-handed infielder that feels like a slam-dunk to stay in the middle. The arm is strong enough to suggest he could stick at short long term, and he is a sub-7 runner as well with that number likely to trend well with more strength. He flashed pull-side power in the workout with the ability to deliver a direct barrel to the front and he lifted at least one ball over the LF wall in workouts. He showed much of the same in-game, making routine look routine on the dirt, while collecting a pair of firm barrels - highlighted by a backside double on Day 3 (clip below) that plated a pair of runs. Both bats showed well for themselves and leave as interesting follows that feel safe to continue to improve. 

+ A pair of two-way performers leave Atlanta after showing their skills on both sides in LHP/OF Aden Baggett and SS/P Grady Grant. Both pitching performances are highlighted here, and we leave especially bullish on Baggett's upside on the bump. The Evansville North native has a real chance to develop into a premier lefty in this class, and is already regarded in our minds as such, but he did show a knack for the barrel with hints of pull-side strength shining in batting practice. Baggett recorded an off-time knock on Day 3, while also showing versatile enough to play 1B at an above average clip. The arm is the tool here, but in today's recruiting landscape he does show enough skills with the bat to be recruited as a potential two-way guy. Grant showed best on the weekend on the mound, but the defensive abilities at SS and upside throughout the operation still leave me considering him as a position player first, for now. I am all in on the sticky-handed nature of Grant, my favorite defender amongst the group of infielders. The hands are the best of the bunch, and there is real left-side arm strength here. His bat showed better throughout the summer than it did in Atlanta, but I still stand on the fact that strength will blossom in the left-handed bat at some point. Regardless, Grant has a real shot to develop as an athlete and when the tools match the skill - he could end up one the best position player prospects of the bunch.
