Baylor Denny, a shortstop and right-handed pitcher from Casteel High School, is the #2 ranked prospect in Arizona’s 2027 class and continues to impress with his polished skill set. During the preseason all states, Denny stood out in the defensive portion, showcasing smooth, clean actions with the glove and a strong, accurate arm across the infield. As one of the most refined middle infielders in the state, he is poised to be a key player up the middle for the reigning 5A state champions, the Casteel Colts. Offensively, Denny has made notable progress, particularly with his improved bat speed, leading to harder and more consistent contact. With his all-around talent and continued development, Denny is set to be a standout prospect this summer at the Future Games and beyond, making him a must-watch player in Arizona baseball.

Baylor Denny, a promising prospect from Casteel High School in the 2027 class, turned heads over the weekend with a well-rounded skill set that shines on both sides of the field. Standing at 5 feet 11 inches and weighing 175 pounds, Denny showcased his defensive prowess in the field, featuring an 84 mph accurate arm and smooth, clean actions with the glove, adding a touch of flair to his plays. At the plate, Denny impressed with a 92 mph max exit velocity, displaying power and carry to the pull side. As one of the top prospects in the 2027 class, Denny is poised to make a significant impact for a loaded Casteel team this spring, and his versatility and skill set make him a player to watch this spring.
