The left-hander started off the testing day by running a 6.41 sec 60-yard dash with a 22.3 mph top run speed. He followed that up by showing some easy power at the plate in BP. He finished with a max exit velocity of 101.2 mph, an 89.2 mph average exit velocity, and a 348-foot max distance. He also showed athletic actions in the outfield both in testing and in gameplay. He had a 90 mph outfield velocity in testing and threw a runner out at home in Wednesday’s 8-4 win. In the first game, Liggon went 2-for-2 at the plate with two singles and a run scored.
Liggon would showcase a quality LHH/OF profile ahead of heading down to Georgia for the Senior Future Games. At the plate, showcased a hitterish bat with loft-based intent, pull-side tendencies, and bat speed. Finished the tournament 5-for-15 with a double, five runs scored, and a walk. Defensively showed present foot speed on the grass with developing reads and routes. 6-foot-4, 191-pound frame with levers, athleticism, strength, and room to add.
Uncommitted, currently ranked No. 7 in the state’s junior class. Twitchy athlete, standing at 6-foot-4 190 pounds with upside physically to the frame. Hit in the three hole and played center field for the Spartans. At the plate, Liggon was impressive despite the 0-for-3 statline, finding the barrel throughout his at-bats, the ball jumped off the bat only to find the glove of a defender. At the plate, the L/L athlete made strides over the offseason taking a more natural path to the baseball and consistently barreling the baseball with authority. Defensively, Liggon has the tools of being an impact defender, showing the ability to stay in center field making rangy plays to both sides throughout. Liggon made a number of quality plays, including a highlight reel worthy catch in the gap where he had to fully extend, leaving his feet to make the grab.
