Stevie Wellens, Liberty High (CA), 2027
Positional Profile: SS/2B Sure-handed MIF with physical tools present on both sides of the ball. Big upside, coupled with further physical development.
Body: 5-6, 167-pounds. Wiry, athletic frame with room to add strength and overall future growth.
Hit: RHH. Sets up balanced and slightly open with a tall posture. Hands rest at shoulder height with the barrel laid flat on the shoulder, showing a raised back elbow and subtle hand waggle. Begins the load by sitting into the back knee and utilizing a high leg kick, allowing the hands to drift back as the upper half coils. Regains balance while striding forward. Turns hips quickly while sinking into the back leg. Hands stay fairly short with a slight uphill path. Generates good bat speed and shows consistent all fields approach while flashing some pop.
Power: 94 max exit velocity, averaged 86.7 mph. 276' max distance.
Arm: RH. INF-79 mph. Quick and clean transfers allow for a short, quick arm path with aggressiveness in the arm action. Releases from 3/4 slot, with the ability to drop down when necessary. Creates solid depth and online carry through the bag. Arm projects well for the left side of the infield, particularly as frame fills out.
Defense: Shows active footwork with quick reads and a decisive first step. Moves laterally with control and feel, maintaining balance to cover ground efficiently. Displays urgency when needed, with range to stick up the middle. Uses natural athleticism to his advantage, along with hands that work confidently out in front.
