2/16/26
Athletic, 6-foot, 185-pounder. Ran a 7.16 60. Hits from athletic base with heavier forward move and direct bat path. Some intent behind the swing, has some pull-side strength and middle of the field impact when synced, exits up to 96 at this event and 98.5 previous. Average to slightly above arm for the class, reaching 84 mph.
6/24/25
6-foot, 185 pound athlete with a well-rounded skillset. 6.99 runner. Some effort to the right-handed swing, but the forward move is balanced and he collected a pair of hits in-game. Exits peaked at 92+, swing works on-plane.
3/18/25
Ranek has made big strides since his appearance at the Underclass Games last summer, specifically in his physical development. He brought a more physical-looking, 6-foot, 185 pound frame to the PAS that paid dividends for him with a 6.97 60-yard dash and 98-plus exits. There is some bat speed in the short, upward right-handed stroke with a fringy outfield arm (83 mph) to pair.
