RSi
The reactive strength index measurement of an athlete's explosiveness by comparing their jump height to the ground contact time in between their jumps. On a scale of 0-5.
The highest Edge Score within the given year. Edge Score is a comprehensive score that takes the core-six visual skills into account, providing an assessment of an athlete’s overall visual ability.
Frame: Athletic, 6-foot-3, 200 pound frame. Looks the part in the uniform with broad shoulders, a muscular frame, and tapered torso.
Toolset/Profile: 6.77 60-yard dash is a well-above average time for the age and the run tool projects out as a future-plus. The hit tool is advanced for the age and works with present barrel strength for the class (94-plus exit) and he hit the furthest batted ball of the event per Trackman. The glove is an above average tool and he has a shot to stick at short with above average arm strength across presently (84 infield arm). I feel very comfortable projecting him to at least stick on the dirt, but I could see him fitting in CF at some point. Regardless - it is an up-the-middle profile with speed/power upside and a polished offensive look.
Actions:
Offensive - Sets up in a wider base with slightly open stance. Hands start in pre-loaded position and he uses a slight barrel tip to trigger. Forward move is controlled by a hover-type stride. Lands in a good base and turns the barrel on-plane with a direct path. Several well-struck balls from g2g, path is optimal.
Defense - Fluid mover on the dirt with very solid glove-to-hand. Soft, confident hands. Arm is loose with above average strength and he can throw from multiple slot.
Summation: There are several special traits here beginning with an elite-looking profile and 5 tool upside. The run tool is the loudest at the moment and he is an exceptional athlete with that tool likely turning into a plus. The 6-foot-3 frame and present mid-90s exits likely brings real raw power as he matures, and it should be playable with exceptional mechanics and bat-to-ball. The middle of the diamond profile is valuable and his arm continues to elevate, now standing at an above average tool, as well. There is a maturity to the way Dylan carries himself, and he is an exceptional worker. I have enough track record with Dylan to say that the makeup is elite and that makes me comfortable projecting further development.

+ '28 SS Dylan Murphy (North Posey) is a high-end '28 prospect with some tools and abilities that are well-advanced for the age and should make him a nationally recognized prospect as this class ages. A dual sport standout with an athletic, 6-foot-3, 190 pound lean, muscular frame - the body immediately passes the eye test and there is plenty of upside in all parts of his game with the projectable frame, plus the fact that he is still 14 years old and even a bit young for the grade by today's standards. Murphy burned a 6.91 60-yard dash to begin the day, a low-effort glider that should mature into a plus runner. His best work is done in the right-handed batter's box, where he took a loud round of batting practice with an exit velocity that peaked at 93.9 mph. Beginning with high hands in an athletic stance, I love the pre-pitch hand rhythm shown and it flows into a strong position at launch, while it is well-timed with a controlled, leg lift stride. Murphy works behind the ball with a more direct path and shows the ability to backspin the baseball from gap-to-gap, on top of leveraging out front to hint at future juice. The athletic shortstop shows soft hands and quality feet on the dirt, with fringy arm strength that works out of a quick transfer from a 3/4 slot.
