3/19/25
+ C Brett Appel (Edgerton, 2026) opened some eyes on Sunday with his performance. Appel showed our staff that he is an explosive athlete by starting his day by running a 6.84 seconds 60 yard dash which was 3rd best of the event. He then jumped 27.2 inches for his vertical jump which checked in for 4th best on the day. With the bat, Appel showcased a short and quick swing and drove the ball up to 91 mph during batting practice. Behind the plate, he was a 2.00 seconds from home to second base with clean transfers and a short and quick right foot to turn the ball around quickly. This is our staff’s second viewing at Appel in a showcase setting and he has turned himself into a very intriguing prospect for the 2026 class.
