Grady Cheever C / SS / Germantown, WI / 2027

UNIVERSITY OF TOLEDO COMMIT

Future Games 2025: C/INF Grady Cheever (Germantown) was a big winner from the weekend, finishing 4-for-10 across the weekend with three RBIs at the plate. Cheever stands in at 6-foot, 158-pounds and still has plenty of room for added strength. As a switch-hitting catcher, Cheever offers one of the more intriguing skillsets within the class at the plate, and has shown potential at the catching position with his natural actions behind the dish. Currently ranked No. 9 in the 2027 class, Cheever is a well-rounded prospect that had himself a strong overall weekend at the 2025 Future Games.

Aedan Waterstreet 1B / RHP / Appleton North, WI / 2027

UNIVERSITY OF CENTRAL MICHIGAN COMMIT

Future Games 2025: RHP/INF Aedan Waterstreet (Appleton North) was one of the more relatively unknown players to us on the roster, but we will undoubtedly be watching to see how Waterstreet progresses in the future. The 6-foot-3, 180-pound righty oozes projection with a long-limbed frame and has plenty of room to fill out. On the mound, he works in line with an easy and repeatable delivery, working in-line down the mound and throwing out of a high ¾ slot. Waterstreet displayed a strong feel for a four-pitch mix. His primary offering is a mid-80s fastball that topped out at 87 mph, playing with arm-side life through the zone. The righty also offered a 80-83 mph sinker that played with arm-side run.. His changeup does a decent job of killing spin, averaging just under 1600 rpms and playing with depth in the 76-79 mph range. He rounds out his arsenal with a mid-70s breaking ball with a sharp 11/5 bite. During his outing on the mound, he pitched two innings, allowing two hits and allowing an earned run. At the plate, Waterstreet has a tall setup and a smooth, uphill swing. Waterstreet does a quality job at covering the zone, expanding his zone multiple times and finding the barrel for a couple extra base hits throughout the week and topping out at a 99.3 mph exit velo during his round of BP. There’s upside on both sides of the ball, and it will be great to see how he continues to develop.
