Winger is one of my “pick-to-click” bats in the 2026 class. The 6-foot-3, 175 pound corner infielder has a smooth right-handed swing with big-time power projection due to his long-levered frame and upward bat path. Along with offensive prowess, Winger is a solid runner (7.15) with enough arm strength to project him to be able to play 3B long term.
Jake Winger, McCutcheon (IN), 2026
Positional Profile: 3B/RHP
Body: 6-3, 175-pounds. Projectable build - ample room to add strength
Delivery: Slower-tempo, easy effort. Shows control to the top of an athletic balance point. Easy move down the slope with in-line shoulders. Lands square & finishes with balance.
Arm Action: RH. Longer, clean arm action from a H 3/4 slot - arm works, chance to add significant velo with added strength.
FB: Some ASR - abv-avg feel
CB: Gradual action, feel for the zone
CH: Some fade to the arm side of the plate
