Oliver Minyard, Woodrow Wilson (TX), 2026
Positional Profile: C/3B RHH/C good build/frame to add strength. Moves well on baseball field. Receives well, solid pop times in workout, carried into game with 1.96 and 2.04 in game. Project solid bat/power combo in future with adjustments. Catch and throw guy, will continue to add raw arm strength. Bat/power developing.
Body: 6-0, 182-pounds. Good physical build/frame to add strength. Width to shoulders and back present. Lower shows developing strength.
Hit: RHH. Rotational back foot, solid use of lower 1/2 in swing. Hits into firm front leg. Stride foot falls back into heel, hindering balance. Work to keep stride foot into ground thru completion of swing. Body leans back at point of contact working against lower 1/2 and causing uphill path to swing. Work to keep posture upright at point of contact, maximizing lower 1/2 and firming ability to get on plane with barrel Barrel/hands in good launch position. Length to swing created by hands casting out, front shoulder opens early to compensate for length. Work to take hands directly to baseball, think taking hands down line of batters box. This will help keeping shoulder closed. Also, think less is more with use of front 1/2 of body. More is better with back 1/2 of body use in swing. 70.9 mph bat speed with 20 G's of rotational acceleration.
Power: 101 max exit velocity, averaged 91.4 mph. 349' max distance. Solid bat/power combo in future with adjustments to hit approach and swing. Solid bat/hand speed present and developing.
Arm: RH. C-81 mph. Arm strength present, carry to throws. Accurate. Arm path can get long at times.
Defense: 1.87-2.00 pop times. Soft hands. Stays low and works through. Athletic mover with quick feet.

Oliver Minyard, Woodrow Wilson (TX), 2026
Positional Profile: C/3B RHH/C…good build to add strength in future. Moves fine on baseball field with avg body control. Solid catch and throw, will continue to improve as receiver. Nice bat/power combo in future with opportunities for adjustments. Nice player to watch develop.
Body: 6-0, 182-pounds. Solid build with good frame to continue to add strength.
Hit: RHH. Loads well in back leg with stride, lower lands in good position to hit. Inward turn of lead shoulder with stride, front shoulder opens early in swing, work to keep closed tad longer…initiate swing with back hip/leg. Rotational back foot, does a solid job of using lower 1/2 in swing. Barrel/hands in nice launch position. Cast barrel out, would like to see barrel take more direct path too zone, pull approach. Taking barrel with more direct path will allow for more adjustability to swing and improved ability to use all fields. 70.1 mph bat speed with 14 G's of rotational acceleration.
Power: 101 max exit velocity, averaged 90.8 mph. 371' max distance. Solid bat/power combo in future with opportunities for adjustments present. Like the upside to bat/power combo with changes.
Arm: RH. C-80 mph. Arm works with some minor length. Throws show carry present.
Defense: 1.95-2.04 pop times. Received well in workout. Nice glove to hand exchange to throw. Good footwork.
ATH: 7.62 runner in the 60. Runs hard, solid form.
Vizual Edge: 53.3 Edge Score
