Upton ran a 6.47 in the 60 and had some good at bats including a towering Home Run. He has some of the best tools in the Nation and didn't hide any of them in Jupiter. He is very much looking like a very early pick next June. He is in our estimation the #1 position prospect in high school baseball. His actions and tools are very rare.

Upton is the #1 tools player in America for next years draft. It could be argued that he is a true 5 tool shortstop. BJ is a graceful athlete who can do just about anything on a baseball field. His arm ranks right up there with anyone playing shortstop in the big leagues. He might be the first position player picked next June.
