The incoming freshman from Lehi HS, earned an early invite to Prep Baseball’s signature national event next summer, as a young MIF headed to the Future Games. Welch has impressed at such events as the Rising Stars ID and played significantly up against older competition at last summer's Top Prospect Games. The 14 year old twitchy MIF, has a fluidity and grace to his plus movement patterns at SS and has projectable plus hands and feet, to go along with an 84 MPH arm, that's online and accurate. The arm and glove actions are advanced for a 2028 grad and at the plate, features a conventional classic RH stance. Welch gets separation with his hands and front side at foot strike. A LD bat with backspin to the gaps, will only be more of a threat as he continues to grow, progress and fill out with maturity. College coaches need to mark this name down to follow next summer as he will be eligible for two years at LakePoint!
