Still uncommitted, INF Ryan Rossi (Glenbrook North, 2024) took a loud round of BP at this event. Rossi, who’s long levered 6-foot-3, 180-pound frame created natural whip out of his load, flashed barrel feel to the pull-side throughout his round. His hardest ball jumped off his barrel at 95.7 mph and traveled an estimated 348 feet, both of which are above-average batted ball metrics for his age. Also made a well above-average run through play where he showed body control and the ability to throw from a low slot and deliver it on the bag with ease.
Positional Profile: SS/RHP
Body: 6-3, 180-pounds.
Hit: RHH. Stock setup, leg lift trigger. Simple approach, direct to the ball, flat path, sends line drives to the pull-side.
Power: 96 max exit velocity, averaged 86.9 mph. 348’ max distance.
Arm: RH. INF - 78 mph. Medium arm circle, quick, 3/4 slot.
Defense: Two-hand gather out front, steady actions, clean transfer.
Run: 7.01 runner in the 60.
INF/RHP Ryan Rossi (Glenbrook North, 2024) stands at a projectable 6-foot-2, 180-pounds with room to fill out his wiry frame. The right/right two-way prospect has all kinds of upside at the plate. Rossi has a fluid, easy look in the box with loose hands, creating easy whip through the zone and stays flat. Rossi has the ability to backspin and elevate the baseball into both gaps with seemingly much more power to tap into down the road as he continues to add strength; T96.2 mph exit velocity and 342’ max batted ball. On the mound he moves with a controlled pace throughout his delivery, moving with a high leg-kick into balance point and striding in-line with the plate. His arm works with a long stab out of the glove, moving into a ¾ release. Rossi’s fastball sat in the 77-80 mph range, playing with running action to his arm-side. His breaking ball plays with short 11/5 shape, coming in at 68-70 mph. He showed both a changeup and a splitter throughout his ‘pen, with his changeup fading to his arm-side at 70-72 mph and splitter dropping vertically at 70-71 mph with killed spin.
