One prospect to note, that made their way down from Wisconsin, was 1B/RHP Ethan Hibicke (Sussex Hamilton, 2025). Hibicke stands at 6-foot-1, 175-pounds, with room to add strength. At the plate he showed an easy, loose right-handed swing with extension through contact, consistently staying on the barrel and lining baseballs to the big part of the diamond. Hibicke reached a max exit velocity of 90.8 mph and a max batted distance of 301’. He hopped on the mound and showed a loose and quick arm out of a ¾ slot. His fastball showed feel for the zone, reaching a top velocity of 80.1 mph. His two best offspeed pitches were his curveball and change-up; the curveball showed 11/5 shape with occasional depth, and his change-up showed downer action at times.
