Jaden Upper: OF/RHP, (2023) Lebanon, OH. 6-foot-2, 205-pound. Solid at the plate, the left-handed hitter's best exit velocity was 89 mph. Began in an athletic open stance with a small controlled load, then used a short stride. Bat speed is quick and has an upward swing plane. Barreled up multiple balls throughout his round. Pull side approach. Solid in the outfield, his best throws to the infield topped out at 82 mph; shows choppy athletic feet, firm hands, and a natural packing exchange.
2/16/20 Position Player
Hit: Athletic, physical look to him in the box. Has some things to clean up but the lefty definitely has tools to work with. Back load to arm bar with hands during smooth lower half movement. Path is uphill to level depending on pitch height. Physical bat with above average hand speed. When he barrelled up the baseball it jumped.
Power: Top batting practice exit velocity was 86.3 and he reached a top batting practice distance of 246 feet.
Offensive Projection: Run producer ceiling.
Field: Simple, controlled actions in the outfield. Easy pace with solid ball skills. Corner look to him.
Throw: Tossed it to home plate with 64 mph arm strength.
Defensive Projection: Corner Outfield.
