+ Chase Osenbaugh, 3B, Shenandoah: Osenbaugh showed off an advanced left-handed stroke for the class with exits that reached 95-plus from a stocky-bodied, 5-foot-9, 195 pound frame. The swing works in a controlled fashion, and he is able to create stretch as the barrel works tight off the back shoulder to get on-plane. There is above average bat speed shown with hints of power potential. The bat will be monitored as he matures and he showed solid arm strength for the class with an 81 mph infield arm at this event.
