The Debut

+ Coming in a No. 1 is talented two-way prospect, RHP/OF Walker Snee (Bergen Cathoilic). Snee, a top quarterback recruit as well, boasts a broad shouldered 6-foot-2 190-pound frame and a clean, compact arm stroke. There's still some polishing to be made for Snee, but the combination of projection and physicality make him a guy to follow.

+ No. 2 is SS Chase Hallett (Pennington), who made a serious case for the No. 1 slot after a monster showing at the Junior Future Games. 

The way he manipulates the barrel already at a young age... Left Handed Hitter, there's athleticism, bouncing all over the diamond, can move things around, 6.8 runner.. you want those aggressive athletes with aptitude and Hallett definitely has that.

2029 from NJ to keep tabs on📍

+ No. 4 is another Junior Future Games standout in C Drew Gable (Cherokee). Broad shouldered and strong at 6-feet 209-poounds, Gable possesses raw power and advanced catch and throw abilities for his age already. Really liked the way he moved the barrel and his athleticism will continue to improve as he gets stronger.

2029 C/3B Drew Gable (Cherokee); 6-0 205 lbs

Absolutely unloads on this elevated FB. Takes it 315ft, caught right at the fence. Physical build that will continue to mash baseballs‼️#PBJFG25 pic.twitter.com/VR7iWb8zDQ

+ No. 7 is RHP Bryson Auten (Immaculata). A two way prospect as it stands at the moment but Auten's true electricity has come on the mound thus far. Fastball into the upper 80s with some late ride through the zone in the summer, expect Auten to be a breakout peformer for Immaculata this spring.
