Jason Taylor, Notre Dame High School (CA), 2028
Positional Profile: OF/RHP Athletic two-way prospect with speed, arm strength, and developing pitchability on the mound.
Body: 5-11, 164-pounds. Lean, proportional frame with athletic traits and clear physical projection remaining as he continues to add strength.
Delivery: Smooth, free-flowing motion, working at a comfortable pace. Uses a moderate leg lift to gather before driving forward with energy off the rubber, staying balanced and on line to the plate.
Arm Action: RH. Natural whip, producing deception from a high three-quarter slot. Release is clean, with loose acceleration through the baseball.
FB: T85, 83-85 mph. Mostly true four-seam shape with carry through the zone, control to the glove-side. T2400, 2292 average rpm.
SL: 72-74 mph. Sweeping breaking ball with lateral movement that spans the zone horizontally. Effective at changing eye lines. T2330, 2210 average rpm.
CH: 74-76 mph. Classic fading action with late drop and arm-side movement, offering separation from the fastball. T1618, 1592 average rpm.
CUT: 78-79 mph. Shorter, firmer offering that gives him another look to manipulate movement off the fastball.
ATH: 7.04 runner in the 60. 1.71 and 3.90 in the 10 and 30 yard splits. 23.20 max vertical.

Body: 5-11, 164-pounds. Lean, proportional frame with athletic traits and clear physical projection remaining as he continues to add strength.
Hit: RHH. Wide, grounded stance with the barrel resting calmly on the back shoulder. Uses a compact leg lift to initiate the load, allowing the upper half to work freely through contact. Swing path is direct and controlled, geared toward producing hard line-drive contact. 66 mph bat speed with 10 G's of rotational acceleration.
Power: 92 max exit velocity, averaged 87.2 mph. 340' max distance.
Arm: RH. OF-89 mph. Longer arm circle, producing easy, clean carry and true ball flight.
Defense: Tracks the ball with controlled, fluid footwork, closing ground efficiently before gathering into his crow hop. Exchange is becoming sharper and more decisive, allowing him to release the ball quickly while staying balanced and keeping throws on line.
ATH: 7.04 runner in the 60. 1.71 and 3.90 in the 10 and 30 yard splits. 23.20 max vertical.

Taylor opened his career in the competitive Mission League by playing on the lower levels at Notre Dame High School, but his athletic upside was on display during the workout. A wiry present athletic build Taylor stands at 5'10 158.1 lbs., but has the upside to add strength as he matures while showing the athleticism to stay up the middle defensively. He ran 7.17 60 yard time with 1.68 10 yard and 3.92 30 yard splits while approaching 19 MPH on his max run speed. The SoCal based product boasts present arm strength that will catch your eyes (it showed up during his outing on the mound later in the week) and reached 89 MPH from the OF with carry and accuracy to his throws. At the plate he showcased an athletic operation in the box which also impressed VP of Scouting Shooter Hunt during his round. Taylor sprayed hard line drives around PK Park including ones that were up to 95.8 MPH of exit velocity with 324' max distance and a 78% sweet spot rate. The RH hitter gets there with a compact swing producing nearly 70 MPH of bat speed and quick hands that move at 22.9 MPH during the swing while producing 11.4 Gs of rotational acceleration. All in all Taylor showed that he has the realistic two-way player profile for the present and could make a case that he has the potential to do both going forward with his workout performance.

Jason Taylor, Notre Dame High School (CA), 2028
Positional Profile: OF/RHP Athletic OF who contributes on both sides of the ball, showing intriguing two-way upside with a playable arm and developing feel on the mound.
Body: 5-10, 158-pounds. Projectable body with good proportions and clear room for added strength as he continues to mature physically.
Delivery: Traditional, relaxed windup with an easy tempo throughout. Uses a medium leg lift and generates good drive off the rubber.
Arm Action: RH. Arm action is loose and whippy, creating some deception out of the hand from a high three-quarter release.
FB: T86, 82-85 mph. Mostly true carry through the zone, with flashes of late sink that can disrupt timing, particularly against RHHs. T2519, 2365 average rpm.
SL: 70-72 mph. Wide, sweeping action that attacks both sides of the plate, effectively covering the “east-to-west” zones. Strong secondary pitch. T2428, 2329 average rpm.
CH: 75-77 mph. Traditional shape, showing late downward movement and fading toward the arm side. T1715, 1668 average rpm.
CUT: 72-79 mph.
ATH: 7.17 runner in the 60. 1.68 and 3.92 in the 10 and 30 yard splits. 25.60 max vertical.

Body: 5-10, 158-pounds. Projectable body with good proportions and clear room for added strength as he continues to mature physically.
Hit: RHH. Sets up with a wide, stable base that allows him to stay grounded through the swing. Barrel starts relaxed on the back shoulder before a controlled, short leg lift gets him into his load. Tends to work more with the upper half, allowing the hands to work free through the zone. Swing is geared toward hard line-drive contact 67.2 mph bat speed with 9 G's of rotational acceleration.
Power: 96 max exit velocity, averaged 85.5 mph. 324' max distance.
Arm: RH. OF-89 mph. Longer arm action from a high three-quarter slot. Ball jumps out of the hand with clean carry and a true flight path
Defense: Approaches the ball with controlled, efficient strides and shows improving rhythm into the crow hop. Transfers continue to trend forward, allowing him to get into throws quicker while maintaining balance and accuracy.

Taylor showed off an athletic position player profile during the workout portion before backing it up with a strong showing over the multiple games played including a pair of hard hit baseball with one going for a hit up the middle. He looked comfortable playing all over the OF and nearly made a highlight reel diving catch when he ranged from the LCF gap into the RCF gap leaving his feet to just miss a ball in the gap. But, for as solid as his position player showing was during the event it's the work Taylor did on the mound at PK Park which cemented his appearance here. An athletic mover down the mound with impressive arm speed for a rising Soph. who repeats the delivery efficiently the righthander showed off some of the best stuff on the mound of the weekend. Taylor pitched off a FB that lived at 83-86 MPH with life thru the zone while backing it up with a sharp 2400+ RPM SLD at 71-75 MPH as his primary secondary. He mixed in a sound 79-80 MPH cut FB to go with the makings of a sound 75-76 MPH CHG. Jason pounded the zone at a high level to pick up multiple Ks in his outing with soft contact from the hitters who were able to get the ball in play off him. Another player whose overall performance at West Coast Super Sophomore Games should bring a hefty rise to his profile on our rankings board come the end of fall.
