Washington Uncommitted Spotlight - '27 INF Beau Reid
December 8, 2025
As we move through the offseason, 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 '27 INF Beau Reid. The junior out of Ballard High School was seen at multiple Prep Baseball events this year, including the Seattle Summer ID - Session III and Seattle Summer Review.
A medium-framed athlete, Reid's year was highlighted by exit velocities into the upper 90's and a smooth glove as a corner infielder. Below is a complete breakdown of the player, including scouting reports and video from previous looks.
