QUICK HITS

Keagan Fosdick | C | Tomball | 2028 | R/R | 5’8” 172
Fosdick is a strong, physical catcher with the profile of a future middle-of-the-order bat. He shows good hand and bat speed with natural feel for the barrel, producing exit velocities up to 99 mph while backspinning balls on a lower flight path. Offensively, the strength and impact are real. Defensively, he received well behind the plate and showed a quick release on throws, posting a best pop time of 2.04. Offensive upside with a solid catching foundation.


Jaxson Harris | C/RHP | Tomball Memorial | 2028 | R/R | 5’8” 176
Arm strength stands out as one of Harris’s biggest assets. On the mound, he sat 82-83 mph with arm-side run from a short, compact arm path and showed life to the fastball. The slider flashes as a quality pitch, showing sweep with late depth. Behind the plate, he registered a best pop time of 1.94, highlighted by a compact stroke and quick release. Strong-armed catcher with real two-way value.


Troy Gonzalez | C/3B | Lutheran South | 2027 | R/R | 5’8” 204
Gonzalez shows the ability to drive the baseball to all fields with authority. He swings with balance, good weight transfer, and a clean barrel release, producing exit velocities in the 100-103 mph range. Behind the plate, he worked with soft hands and solid glove actions, recording a best pop time of 1.94. Physical bat with impact potential and defensive versatility.


Mason Hill | C/1B | Lytle | 2027 | R/R | 6’0” 203
Hill put on an impressive power display, posting 102-106 mph exit velocities and topping out at 107, consistently finding the barrel despite some length in the swing. There is significant present strength with a well-proportioned, physical frame. Defensively, he showed solid glove work behind the plate and recorded a best pop time of 2.08. Impact bat with strength-driven upside and defensive versatility at catcher or first base.
