Another strong-bodied physical infielder who put up noteworthy metrics was Tyler Patterson (Simeon, 2023). Patterson – listed at a broad-shouldered, well-proportioned 6-foot-1, 210 pounds – made a lot of hard, loud contact with his right-handed swing. Still raw in certain areas, Patterson’s sheer bat strength was hard to ignore. Patterson led the event with a max exit velocity of 97.5 mph, average exit velocity of 90.1, and a max batted distance of 353 feet. Patterson also showed off advanced bat speed, coming in at an average of 76.3 mph, second highest of the event.
