9-Purple vs. 14-Gray Game Highlights
7/22/2024 2:22:36 PM

Colton Pettinato (2029 C, Waxhaw, NC) threw three strong innings where he struck our four. Showed athletic traits to the delivery with an arm that has some quality armspeed. He ran his FB up to 81 that produced some whiffs at the top of the zone. Mixed in a slurvy breaker that flashed sharpness and upside in the upper 60s. Also added two line-drive hits where it's a simple swing operation that shows above avg. quickness to the hands/barrel. 

Reese Parker (2029 SS, Saucier, MS) struck out five in his two innings of work. Displayed a balanced/clean operation where he gets down the mound well with a loose/continuous arm action that ran the FB up to 80. Was landing his breaking ball that showed 10-4 shape with some late depth at times that proved effective. 

Andrés Armenta (2028 OF, Queen Creek, AZ) was all over barrel again on Sunday where he found two loud pullside barrel for doubles. He turns a fast barrel on an uphill path with consistent out front intent where there's advanced strength at impact. 

Colton Windham (2029 RHP, Lakeside, CA) had a 3H game where two of them were loud barrels. His first one was a line drive single into the LC gap and followed that up with a double deep into the RC gap. It's a smooth LH stroke where he gets into easy launch and delivers the barrel on a flatter path through with some length. 

Brock Simpson (2029 C, Fitzgerald, GA) had himself a nice two-way game yesterday. He struck out two in his inning of work where he uses a athletic/repeatable operation. His fastball was up to 82 that produced whiffs up and mixed in an effective SL and CH. At the plate he added two hits which included a line drive single into left and a knock back up the box. There's some noticeable strength to the hands and lower half that help supply some above avg. bat speed for his level. 

Angel Montas (2029 3B, Santo Domingo, SD) showed off some outlier power for his age with a no-doubt HR to right that went half-way up the net. Just unreal bat speed that he gets to with ease within a low-effort/smooth LH swing. 

Carter Nash (2029 OF, Moore, SC) was another two-way standout this game where he threw a quick shutout inning and added a hit. On the mound, it's a slower drop/drive delivery where the lower half works well and showed above avg. armspeed that helped run his fastball up to 80. At the plate, his hit was a hard opposite field GB into right where he showed quick hands that take a direct path to the baseball.

Chase Mears (2028 SS, Manchester, VT) lined one hard to left showing a quality swing. Engages the backside well while using a simple forward move that gets his foot down early which allows for easy timing. Barrel then works on a on-plane path through with some good bat speed for his level. 

Asher Williams (2029 SS, Saint George, UT) closed out the game for purple where he pounded the zone during his one shutout inning. Also had one the better barrels of the day where he lined a ball hard into the left-center gap. Swing operates with good balance/rhythm with noticeable bat speed.
