Grip strength is a measure of a players bat control and ability to transfer power and speed during impact, measured in pounds of force generated; collected with elbow bent at 90 degrees.
INF/RHP Chase Stearns (Parkway Central, MO; 2028) is an upside two-way to follow. At a high-waisted 5-foot-10, 155-pounds with room to fill out, Stearns swung it well to start his day. A right-handed hitter, he swings with a flat path and with some intent at times. On the day, he reached a max EV of 90.5 mph, and also posted one of the better average hand speeds on the day at 21.3 mph. There’s some intrigue on the mound, displaying a compact and quick arm path. He showed confidence in his off-speed offerings, throwing both a curveball and change-up with fastball intent. His curveball worked with 11/5 shape, and he worked it low and to his glove-side throughout his ‘pen. Stearns also showed a change-up with downer action and fade at times.
Positional Profile: SS/RHP
Body: 5-11, 155 pounds. Athletic build with room to add strength.

Athletic Testing: 7.27 runner in the 60-yard dash; 19.40-inch max vertical jump.
Vizual Edge: 72.32 Edge Score.
