SS, Parker Roop, Normal University, 2027 Uncommitted. Started at short and hit in the leadoff position. Roop showed flashes of potential as he went 1-for-3 with a walk. High-waisted, athletic 6-foot, 155-pound frame with room to fill out. The left-handed hitter swings from an upright, wide stance with knees slightly bent.

INF/RHP Parker Roop (Normal University, 2027) is a definite name to follow moving forward. He has a projectable frame you can dream on, listed at 6-foot, 155-pounds with long levers and a wiry build. At the plate, the left-handed hitter is able to work on-plane with a longer path through the zone, favoring his pull-side but showing big upside with a 92 mph max EV. Roop then wrapped up his debut showing with an impressive ‘pen. He is an athletic mover down the mound with a loose/quick arm. His fastball showed true two-seam action (avg. 16.5” HM) at 80-82 mph (T83), with more to come in the future. He had feel for his curveball at 70-73 mph that played with quality action and shape. Roop threw his changeup with intent at 72-76 mph playing with fade, displaying out-pitch potential for the future.
