RHP Cole Hayden (Pittsburg, 2026) caught our attention on the mound in his Prep Baseball event debut on Sunday. The 6-foot-1, 214-pound sophomore showed feel to land a three pitch mix for strikes, pitching his fastball at 83-85 mph with natural run at times. Hayden paired that with a curveball at 70 mph with tight spin (top 2495 RPM) and a low-spin changeup at 79-80 mph.
