Hoover is a 6-foot, 180-pound infielder with some present strength and easy, fundamental actions on the dirt—likely a long-term fit at 3B. Offensively, he hits from a smooth, fluid operation with a clean on-plane path that produces consistent contact. He posted an 87 mph max exit velocity (79.5 avg) with a 278’ peak distance, showing solid barrel awareness and flashes of power. Defensively, Hoover features a shorter arm action that produced 82 mph across the diamond, and his actions stay under control throughout. Well-rounded profile with upside.
