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.
Another uncommitted 2026 to know is RHP Kaden Norman (Cary-Grove). He stands out physically with his 6-foot-2, 188-pound frame, looking to have a durable and strong build that still has room for added strength. The big right-hander showed easy intent throughout his ‘pen, working with a controlled operation that stays in-line with the plate. His arm is clean with a full circle out of the glove, creating a tough look for opposing hitters with his sidearm slot. He gets heavy arm-side run on the fastball thanks to his lower slot, sitting 81-83 mph throughout with nearly 2,400 RPM at times. His curveball had some slider shape due to his lower slot, playing from a 10/4 plane but also showing some sharp downward action, put-away pitch, 72-75 mph. His final offering was a changeup in the 78-79 mph range, thrown with fastball arm-speed and natural sink for strikes.
