2024 1B/RHP Hayden McGrath caught the building’s attention with his round of BP. Looks the part in the box with a big, athletic frame at 6-foot-2, 170-pounds. The right-handed hitter put together one of the most consistent rounds of the day, finding the barrel 60% of the time and catching the ball outfront with a quick bat. The power projects and there’s tons of room to add strength to his frame. Top exit velocity of 82.9mph. He was clean on the mound as well where he sat 76-77mph with the fastball. Looks the part of a productive two-way player right now but there looks to be more upside at the dish.
2024 OF/RHP Hayden McGrath put together a pretty overall day in Oshawa after a good Scout Day last summer. Currently 6-foot-1, 160-pounds with long limbs and room to continue filling out. The most intriguing part on the day was his batting practice which was impressive when he stuck to a line drive approach. There's power potential as he continues to add weight. With the size it will be interesting to follow him on the mound going forward but the upside is in the bat right now.
Young 2024 with long limbs and room to really fill out and grow. There is some feel and sense in the box during BP and a high two-handed finish with present bat speed for his age. Not to mention, he was swinging wood, McGrath had a path that was level and looked to drive balls with intent. He’ll need to fill into his body and work out his athleticism which comes with age and growth, but we liked the upside to his game and can see him filling out into his body as he matures.
