Top Performers
2022 RHP Austin Newton (TNXL Tampa, FL)
USF commit. Tall, extra large frame that creates an impending presence on the mound. Looks to work downhill. Featured an 85-87 mph fastball, touching 88 while mixing in a 75-77 mph slider. At times can fall off to the side and can yank out of the zone, but when he stays in line he shows better command. More in there.
2023 OF Zach Lester (TNXL Tampa, FL)
Uncommitted. Athletic frame with room to fill out. Had a standout night offensively as he delivered multiple run scoring hits. Quick hands with a present feel for the barrel, comfortable approach in the box. Above average hit tool, bat to follow moving forward.
2023 MIF Trey Miranda (TNXL Tampa, FL)
Uncommitted. Lean, athletic frame. Smooth hands up the middle defensively, ranges freely to his left and right. Displays present bat speed from both sides of the plate as well. Will see overall jumps as he becomes more physical.
2021 IF Tyler Smith (TNXL Tampa, FL)
Hudson Valley CC commit. Physical frame. Creates loud, hard contact offensively. Had a rocket line drive into centerfield for a single late in the game.
2021 C/1B Jackson Choinski (TNXL Tampa, FL)
Hilbert College commit. Played the hero last night in the bottom of the 8th as he delivered the game winning sac fly to right field. Strong lower half and implements it throughout his swing, showing pull side juice. Fast hands from the left side.
2021 OF Danny Schweitzer (TNXL Tampa, FL)
Iowa Western commit. Strong lower half with present physicality throughout. Also is an above average runner (6.4-6.5 60yd range) who can really turn it on rounding the bases. During one of his at-bats he laced a ball into left field for a single.
