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.
