Snell is another former Future Gamer that has gotten off to a torrid start to the year and that continued last Friday night against St. Louis Catholic. The first thing that stood out with him was the strength gains that he's made since last summer, as he's definitely added physicality to his 6'1" 170 lbs. frame, but there's still room to project for more. Snell has a somewhat unorthodox set-up in the box, as he starts in an open stance with a higher hand-set, before using quick hands to deliver an on-plane path to contact with present bat speed. He caught a barrel in his first at-bat, as he drove a FB to the LCF gap for a stand-up RBI double and added another RBI single later in the game to finish the night 2-2 with 2 RBI and 3 R. Another thing that stood out with Snell was his "baseball IQ", especially on the basepaths, as he was constantly looking to take the extra base. Now that March 1st is here and college recruiters can get back out on the road to recruit, Snell is a really good name to highlight to see this spring.
