Grip Strgth (LH)
Grip strength is a measure of a players bat control and ability to transfer power and speed during impact, measured in pounds of force generated; collected with elbow bent at 90 degrees.
Grip Strgth (RH)
Grip strength is a measure of a players bat control and ability to transfer power and speed during impact, measured in pounds of force generated; collected with elbow bent at 90 degrees.
Uncommitted. Currently ranked No. 127 in the 2026 class and listed at 5-foot-11, 153 pounds with room for added strength. Started at second base for O’Fallon and drove in four of the Panthers’ six runs on the day. Hitting from the left side of the plate, he sets up with a wide base, slightly bent knees and a slight stride forward to swing. Bauer features a quick, slightly uphill, direct-to-ball swing that helped him go 2-for-3 on the day, with both hits coming off fastballs that he shot right back up the middle. His four RBI were ⅔ of the O’Fallon’s runs, as Bauer was the biggest contributor in the Panthers’ 6-0 win.
MIF Carson Bauer (O’Fallon, 2026) is an upside left-handed hitting infielder whose best days are yet to come. Listed at 5-foot-11, 153-pounds, there is plenty more strength to come down the road and he is a loose overall mover. Defensively, he has seen a big uptick in velocity, now up to 85 mph across the diamond with fluid overall actions. He plays from the ground up and works through the ball clean and with purpose. Soft hands should help profile him up the middle of the diamond at the next level. Offensively, he has a simple overall approach, looking to control the barrel, stay inside the baseball and use the whole field. 7.28 runner, T89 mph off the bat in BP. Name to watch in the coming year’s.
Positional Profile: SS/3B
Body: 5-11, 153-pounds.
Hit: LHH. Wider, athletic setup, minimal leg lift and stride. Direct, simple swing, works slightly uphill through the zone, pull-side approach. 60.3 mph bat speed with 22 G’s of rotational acceleration.
Power: 85 max exit velocity, averaged 78 mph. 286’ max distance.
Arm: RH. INF - 79 mph. Clean, quick arm action, 3/4 slot.
Defense: Plays low and through the ball, two-handed gather out front, fluid footwork through the ball with timing.
Run: 7.23 runner in the 60.
MIF Carson Bauer (O’Fallon, 2026) continues to show upside at the plate from the left side. Bauer’s hands stay short to contact and work on top of the baseball, spraying line drives to all fields throughout his round. He repeats his swing consistently and should continue to add more impact as he tacks on strength to his 5-foot-10, 155-pound frame.
