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.
Verbally committed to Kaskaskia JC.
Positional Profile: RHP/3B
Body: 6-1, 202.4-pounds.
Delivery: Quick/twitchy delivery, deep back leg sink, powerful lower half drive, solely from the stretch, in-line stride.
Arm Action: RH. Loose action with extension. 3/4 slot.
FB: T90, 86-89 mph. Shows carry and late life. Heavy. T2097, 2006 average rpm.
SL: 76-77 mph. Tight 3/9 horizontal break. Tunnels effectively off of fastball. T1993, 1891 average rpm.
CH: 79-80 mph. Arm-side fade. Late dive. T1475, 1456 average rpm.
Uncommitted. Currently ranked No. 65 in Illinois’ 2025 class. Stands in a well-built frame at 6-foot-1, 205-pounds. Started on the mound for Mattoon in game one of the day and threw a no-hitter with eight strikeouts, five walks and one run allowed. Heavy usage of a fastball that sat in the low-80s throughout the game, touching 86 mph often, with arm-side run at times. Mixed in a curveball with 11/5 shape, sitting 68-71 mph. An uncommitted name to know in the state’s junior class.
RHP Joseph Stewart (Mattoon, 2025) gave an upside look in front of our scouting staff. Listed at 6-foot-1, 205-pounds. Loose, easy mover, works in-line and gains ground easily down the mound. The right-hander struck out one and walked one over 1.1 innings of work, not allowing an earned run. His fastball worked in the 83-86 mph range, topping out at 87 mph with some carry and over 13” of run at times. Slider worked in the 70-84 mph range with short 10/4 shape. Flashed a straight changeup at 79-80 mph to fill out his arsenal.
Positional Profile: RHP/3B
Body: 6-1, 205-pounds.
Delivery: Up-tempo, drop/drive delivery. Works in-line, powerful down the mound.
Arm Action: RH. Long and loose arm action. High 3/4 slot.

He threw two offspeed pitches, one being a slider that sat 68-72 mph with 10.9 in. of horizontal movement, on average.
