7/30/25
Sione Papitaiso Tulua, St Francis High School (CA), 2028
Positional Profile: C/3B Power-hitting C with upside at the plate. Solid defensive foundation that will improve with time.
Body: 6-1, 190-pounds. Lean, athletic build with projectible frame.
Hit: RHH. Starts from an upright, balanced stance with hands sitting in front of the back shoulder. Displays lower back elbow and a primarily vertical barrel with a subtle waggle. Initiates the load with a slight sink into the back knee as the hands work back and the back elbow raises. Uses a small leg lift for timing with a minimal stride forward. Hip turn begins at foot strike as the back knee drives forward, with hands set to follow. Uphill swing path while working the hands to the top of the ball. Produces frequent hard contact with the ability to drive the ball in the air to the pull side and shows gap-to-gap power. Finishes with a high two-handed follow-through. 68.5 mph bat speed with 10 G's of rotational acceleration.
Power: 94 max exit velocity, averaged 87.2 mph. 349' max distance.
Arm: RH. C-77 mph. Compact arm path that gets up to a 3/4 slot with quick action and present arm speed. Consistently around the bag on throws, with room to add arm strength as the frame continues to develop.
Defense: 2.13-2.21 pop times. Works from a taller crouch position with an athletic base. Displays soft hands and an efficient transfer, complemented by consistent footwork.
ATH: 7.49 runner in the 60. 1.70 and 4.03 in the 10 and 30 yard splits. 19.60 max vertical.
Vizual Edge: 72.54 Edge Score
