One name that really stood out on the day was INF Julio Ayala (Montini, 2027). He has a projectable, athletic frame, standing 5-foot-11, 178-pounds. At the plate, the left-handed hitter displayed loose wrists with a fluid, handsy swing, creating bat-speed with feel to use the whole field, reaching up to 93 mph for his max EV with an average of 86 mph (T355’). Fluid defender on the infield, plays in his legs with smooth actions and soft hands. Well above-average arm-strength across the diamond, T87 mph, can play from multiple angles.
Positional Profile: SS/2B
Body: 6-0, 180 pounds. Trim, athletic frame with room for added strength.
Hit: LHH. Hands at ear, slightly open stance, bat wiggle, balanced weight, clean stride. Loose wrists, handsy swing, fluid, creates some bat-speed, feel to use the whole field, sees it deep. 64.9 mph bat speed with 13g of rotational acceleration.
Power: 93 mph max exit velocity (86.2 avg.); 355-foot max batted distance.
Arm: RH. INF - 87 mph. Multiple angle ability, 3/4 release.
Defense: Plays in his legs, fluid and smooth actions, soft hands.
Athletic Testing: 7.48 runner in the 60-yard dash; 25.30-inch max vertical jump.
Vizual Edge: 71.93 Edge Score.

Uncommitted. Strong, durable 6-foot, 165-pound frame with evenly proportioned strength. Started at third base and impressed with quality defense throughout the game. Quick reactions, steady hands, strong backhand play in-game that brought him past the third base bag, set his feet and made a strong throw across, fluid double play turn. Simple right-handed swing, gets the foot down early, minimal hand movement, works to stay short to the ball. Definite follow moving forward.
An infielder to know from the Cangelosi Sparks North squad was SS Julio Ayala (Montini Catholic, 2027). Ayala has strength in his 6-foot, 165-pound frame and has natural infield actions. Ayala never seemed to be in a rush on the diamond, playing with clean footwork, soft hands and an easy arm that played from multiple slots. Also, is a left-handed hitter that stands in the box with confidence and rhythm and short, uphill stroke.
