Week of 10/27/25

Peyton Andrie 3B / RHP / Washington Township, NJ / 2027

Andrie is coming off a very impressive summer and fall circuit where he produced at a high-level offensively. The 5-foot-10 and 165-pound third baseman has been consistently trending in the upwards direction for the past calendar year. Andrie has an above average arm strength from the hot corner peaking up to 87 mph. At the plate, he has an upward bat path that allows him to consistently elevate the baseball for damage. Andrie can slug and produce amongst the best of them.

 

 

John Luca Gallina 2B / SS / Ranney, NJ / 2027

The number 1 second baseman in NJ’s 2027 class is a dynamic athlete that is the ultimate gamer on the diamond. At 5-foot-5 and 146-pounds, Gallina packs a mighty punch like producing a fastball that has been recorded up to 90 mph this fall. The two-way prospect is very productive, offensive and defensively and can produce outlier metrics with both positions. Gallina is also a 6.96 sixty-yard dash runner with a max sprint speed of 20.0 mph. One of the Northeast’s top all-around ball players pound-for-pound.

 

 

Davontae Hardison OF / SS / State College Area, PA / 2027

One of the Keystone State’s most dynamic athletes that is an impact player on offense and defense. The 5-foot-11 and 175-pound utility player is rehabbing off a non-throwing shoulder injury and is very close to being 100 percent back. When Hardison is on the diamond, he produces impressive metrics like a 97.9 mph exit velocity, 6.75 sixty-yard dash, 86 mph from the outfield, and a bat speed that consistently peaks over 80 mph. Hardison is a must-see prospect when he is officially back on the diamond.

 

 

Nicholas Trigone RHP / 3B / Methacton HS, PA / 2027

The 6-foot-1 and 180-pound right-handed pitcher has a pitch arsenal that consists of an upper 80s fastball and a breaking ball over 2,700 rpm. Trigone is a smooth mover down the mound with quick and loose arm action. His fastball is typically 87-89 mph, and the curveball is 74-77 mph and a peak spin rate of 2,770 rpm and an average spin rate of 2,695 rpm. Keep an eye on Trigone to make waves next high school season.

 

 

Jack Porter C / OF / Horace Greeley, NY / 2027

Balanced, easy-effort swing producing above-average Blast metrics with strength to all fields. Improving behind the plate with efficient catch-and-release actions and a 72 MPH arm resulting in 1.98–2.07 pop times. Trending upward with a well-rounded skill set.

 

 

Ben Kaulback 3B / RHP / CBA-Syracuse, NY / 2027

6-2, 180 lb projectable 2-way prospect with feel for the barrel and gap-to-gap juice. Shows fluid actions and a confident glove defensively with the arm strength to stick on the left side. Power potential continues to trend up.
