Washington Uncommitted Spotlight - '26 OF Jakob Fowler
September 16, 2025
As we conclude the summer showcase season, Prep Baseball Washington features an Uncommitted Spotlight, where we highlight standout performers that attended a Prep Baseball ID event this year. Uncommitted spotlights are meant to showcase players that Prep Baseball Scouts felt showed standout tools, large improvements in overall game, or potential upside moving forward. College coaches and recruiters should be sure to keep an eye on these prospects in the coming months.
This week, we spotlight '26 OF Jakob Fowler. The senior out of Kings High School was seen most recently at the Seattle Summer ID - Session II at Bannerwood Park this July.
A potent RH bat with present power, Fowler's showcase was highlighted by exit velocities up to 99.8 MPH as well as sound defense with throws up to 82 MPH in the outfield. Below is a complete breakdown of the player, including scouting reports and video from the event.
