One of the twitchiest hitters in the 2026 class, Taylor put on a show during batting practice with 5 of his 10 batted balls in batting practice leaving the bat at 97 mph or better. Taylor's best ball left the bat at 102.5 mph, and he showed some of the best bat speed / rotational abilities of any hitter at the event. Taylor stands out in a showcase setting due to a very well-rounded toolset. He is a 6.79 runner, to go along with possessing an 89 mph arm from the outfield, which only adds to what the bat provides to the profile.
Position Profile: OF/2B
Body: 5-8, 160-pounds. Lean, athletic build - tons of twitch.
Hit: RHH. Athletic setup. Uses a controlled, leg kick stride w/ quiet hands in the load. Twitch helps to create advanced bat speed for a '26. Path matches plane & works uphill. Advanced hitter for class.
Power: 95 max exit velocity, averaged 85.2 mph. 293' max distance.
Arm: RH. OF-84 mph. Loose arm action from an OTT slot.
Defense: Athletic feet, sure hands, quick exchange.
Run: 7.07 runner in the 60.
