An imposing frame standing in at 6-foot-3, 205-pounds with a fluid stroke from the left-side. Looks the part in the box, establishes plane and lived on the barrel throughout his rounds. Paul is an impactful bat that can supply the juice at the college level. In regards to the metrics, Paul produced a maximum exit velocity of 98.1 mph, a hard hit % of 100, and a sweet spot % of 80. He is one of the better prospects in the ‘25 class that projects. A name to check in on as we head into the summer season in the coming months.
‘25 OF/1B Ben Paul put together one of the best overall performances on Friday and looks the part with his 6-foot-2, 190-pound frame. The left-handed hitter impressed with his round of BP where posted the top exit velocity at 94.1mph (87.8mph avg) and a peak distance of 315ft. Worked with a line-drive approach to the middle of the field and found the Sweet Spot at a clip of 64%. Also worked up to 82mph from the outfield and ran a 7.24 60-yard dash.
