Notes

7/08/25
Pierce Hayden, Dripping Springs (TX), 2027
Positional Profile: C/3B RHH/C with good build to add strength. Projects as solid receiver in future showing quickness to hands. Project solid bat power combo with swing adjustments. Solid player developing, bat/power combo could exceed with changes. RHP repeats delivery with opportunity to be firmed. Arm works fine, looking for increased arm speed. Must work down with FB for success. Shows feel for CB when release point landed. Developing on mound.
Body: 6-0, 177-pounds. Good, strong build/frame. Has strength present. Has width to shoulders and back. Will add more strength with growth and maturity. Good physical projections.
Delivery: Side step rocker, high knee lift with inward hip turn. Works down the slope with stride foot, lands with toe slightly open, close toe off. Upright finish, work to get over front leg with chest. Spinoff finish, work to finish directionally towards plate.
Arm Action: RH. Cutoff circle, developing arm speed. High 3/4 slot with nice finish to arm.
FB: T79, 76-78 mph. Good down plane to FB when at knees. Short arm side tail action. Strike thrower with FB. Looking for increased arm speed to add velo. Must be down with FB. T1988, 1747 average rpm.
CB: 64-66 mph. Early break with 12-5 tilt. Must firm release point, gets on side at times. T1884, 1791 average rpm.
ATH: 7.51 runner in the 60. 1.79 and 4.17 in the 10 and 30 yard splits. Smooth, quiet form. Strides well. Good runner. Keeps a good forward lean. 20.10 max vertical.

Must work down with FB for success. Shows feel for CB when release point landed. Developing on mound.
Body: 6-0, 177-pounds. Good, strong build/frame. Has strength present. Has width to shoulders and back. Will add more strength with growth and maturity. Good physical projections.
Hit: RHH. Lands in good position to hit after stride. Rotational back foot, works. Hits into firm front side with good posture. Barrel at good angle to launch, hands away from body. Barrel dump creating length to swing, in/out of zone quickly. Work to get hands closer to body to start swing. Think figure skaters when spinning, hands closer to body, spin faster. Hands closer to body, swing quicker. Another example for impact…if in a fight, I want you to throw a punch with your hands away from body, not loaded up for more power. Hands starting closer to body will give more strength. Stay behind baseball, keep top hand working down inside line of batters box for as long as possible.
Power: 95 max exit velocity, averaged 87.7 mph. 315' max distance. Project solid/bat power combo in future with swing adjustments. Shows some ability to hit balls a nice distance now without creating any bat speed or bat strength now. Upside with changes.
Arm: RH. C-74 mph. Arm works well. Throws have carry with some avg raw arm strength. Accurate during workout. Works with a short compact arm action. Recommend long toss to keep build up more arm strength.
Defense: 2.08-2.15 pop times. Quick feet. Stays athletic through throw. Good use of back leg. Steady defender behind the plate.
ATH: 7.51 runner in the 60. 1.79 and 4.17 in the 10 and 30 yard splits. Smooth, quiet form. Strides well. Good runner. Keeps a good forward lean. 20.10 max vertical.

Pierce Hayden, Dripping Springs (TX), 2027
Positional Profile: C/3B 2027 grade flashing tools with opportunities for adjustments. Like the upside present.
Body: 5-11, 169-pounds. Good physical build/frame to add strength. Solid build in future.
Hit: RHH. Good stance and initial set up. Weight shift to backside prior to knee lift stride. Rotational back foot, does a nice job of using lower 1/2. Stride foot rolls onto heel, can improve hitting off firm front foot. Hands start in good position with barrel in bat wrap position creating length to swing. Must improve barrel control in zone, barrel dump present, especially on pitches middle away. Couple of opportunities for improvement. 66.7 mph bat speed with 9 G's of rotational acceleration.
Power: 91 max exit velocity, averaged 79.7 mph. 287' max distance. Power will improve with strength/maturity. Contact will improve with barrel control.
Arm: RH. C-77 mph. Arm speed can improve, can improve circle out of glove, hand moves downward initially out of glove lengthening arm stroke.
Defense: 2.07-2.17 pop times. Receives well, moves well to throw. Nice exchange from glove to hand.
ATH: 7.34 runner in the 60. 1.74 and 4.07 in the 10 and 30 yard splits. Runs hard, will improve with maturity. 25.60 max vertical.
Vizual Edge: 69.34 Edge Score
