Grip Strgth (LH)
Grip strength is a measure of a players bat control and ability to transfer power and speed during impact, measured in pounds of force generated; collected with elbow bent at 90 degrees.
Grip Strgth (RH)
Grip strength is a measure of a players bat control and ability to transfer power and speed during impact, measured in pounds of force generated; collected with elbow bent at 90 degrees.
Uncommitted, currently ranked No. 30 in the state’s junior class, standing at 6-foot-3, 174 pounds with room to add to the frame. Got the start on the mound and struck out five batters across five innings, allowing two runs on six hits and two walks, earning the win. Working in rhythm on the mound with balance throughout the delivery with both pitches working out of the same window. The fastball plays with life and carry in the mid-80s, looking like a pitch that can miss bats in the zone in the future, to pair with a bigger 11/5 breaking ball in the low-70s and flashed a changeup at 74 mph.
+ This is our staff’s first viewing of RHP Luke Parkinson (Whitnall, 2026) in a showcase setting on the mound. The 6-foot-3, 175 pound long levered prospect put together one of the loudest bullpen sessions of the day. His delivery was smooth and fluid with a balanced leg tuck before getting down the mound with intent. He showcased an extremely quick arm and deployed an explosive fastball through the hitting zone up to 90 mph with a max IVB of 20.0 inches. The curveball flashed two-plane out pitch weapon potential at 67-68 mph. He rounded out his arsenal with a 75-76 mph change up with late fade. The arsenal will continue to refine and the stuff will continue to tick up as the long-levered right-hander matures and gets stronger. Overall, Parkinson’s performance and stuff was extremely impressive and our staff will be locked into his game looks on the mound going forward.
