2/01/26

C Jack Thompson III (Johnsburg) stood out in his workout, taking both a strong round of BP and an impressive round of defense. The right-handed hitter utilizes a short, direct swing with length through the zone and through impact, staying balanced throughout with a line-drive approach to the middle of the field (T94.7 mph EV). Defensively, he gains ground out of the crouch to his target with steady footwork and a clean glove to hand transition, creating a pop-time down to 2.03 seconds (T77 mph).
