Braden Reich is a 2028 1B/LHP with a 5-11 185 lb. frame from Gillespie, IL who attends Gillespie. Medium young with good present strength and more to come. Left handed hitter, sets up in an upright and slightly open stance with a high hand load, long and strong swing, gets to the ball out front and drives the pull side gap, has some lift and good bat speed, hits through the ball, has hitting tools to continue to develop and a good base swing. 7.90 runner in the sixty. Primary first baseman on defense, has clean actions, made accurate soft throws from lower slots. Took a turn on the mound, works from a balanced leg raise delivery with a medium stride down the mound, longer 3/4's arm action. Fastball topped out at 74 mph and was mostly straight. Still developing feel for a sweeping breaking ball. Bat is his tool. Very good student.
