Parkland JC commit INF Jayden Cummings (Simeon, 2022), currently a top-200 prospect in the state, had another strong showing at this event. Cummings, listed at 5-foot-10, 175 pounds, ran one of the top 60s of the event (6.82) and he showed quality infield actions on the left-side to go along with an 83 mph arm. Offensively the right-handed hitter showed quick, strong hands that work off a short/direct path, registering a 90.7 mph max exit velocity. Cummings features upside to all parts of his game and should be able to stick on the infield moving forward.
