An advanced athlete for the age, Bruce brought a muscular look with his 5-foot-9, 165-pound frame and showed well-above average abilities in all facets at this event. He began the day with a 7.04 60, an advanced time for this age, and followed with near-95 mph batting practice exit velocities. The swing works with a bit of a handsy-nature, leaving room for refinement, but the lower half works with balance and there are certainly things to like about the swing. I left more bullish on his abilities on the mound, where he pitched in the low-80s (T 83) with an athletic, in-line operation. The arm speed is impressive for the age, helping him to spin what could be a future-wipeout SL in the low-to-mid 70s, already producing raw spin on his breaking ball that averaged in the high-2600s. He threw strikes as a solid clip, and is certainly a southpaw to follow in Kentucky's 2029 class.
