+ SS/RHP Carson Thurs (Wausau West, 2028): Featuring a strong 6-foot-1, 185-pound build, the two-way prospect projects to add even more size to his frame in the coming years. The right-handed hitter starts, with a downhill swing that creates backspin to the middle and pull-side of the field. He showed off raw power well beyond his years for a 2028 prospect, recording a class-best tying 374.0-foot max distance, a 96 mph max EV. After running a 7.26 60-yard dash, throws across the infield were measured at 86 mph with good carry and accuracy from a whippy three-quarter slot. On the mound, the right-hander works from a clean rocker delivery, and his fastball sat 83-86 mph (2,191 rpm) with 13.1 inches of average induced vertical break, presenting velocity that stands out among his peers. His curveball played at 69-70 mph (1,989 rpm) with 13.7 inches of horizontal movement, while his fading changeup sat 73-75 mph (1,708 rpm) with 17.5 inches of horizontal movement.

+ SS/RHP Carson Thurs (Wausau West, 2028) showcased some interesting talent as both a position player and as a right-handed arm. He was up to 90 mph with his max exit velocity with a short and compact swing through the baseball. The freshman also showed confident actions in the infield and showcased an accurate throwing arm with carry through the first base bag. On the mound, Thurs drove the heater downhill through the zone and paired it with a sharp two-plane curveball and a fading change up. Thurs certainly planted himself on our radar after his performance on Sunday.
