2018 National Underclass Showcase-Main Event
Michael Mitchler is a 2021 1B/RHP/3B with a 6-2 190 lb. frame from Alpharetta, GA who attends Blessed Trinity Catholic. Tall athletic build with good present strength for his age and plenty of room for more. Lef handed hitter, hits from a spread open stance with a high hand/high back elbow load, fluid and loose long swing, works the middle of the field with gap power, approach creates too much length at times but the bat speed and extension are there, has the hitting tools and strength to continue to develop. 7.60 runner, has clean and athletic footwork at first base, lots of arm strength for the position, will be an asset at first base defensively. Also pitched, slow paced delivery with a very compact arm action, uses his lower half well. Fastball topped out at 81 mph, mostly straight, threw his fastball to spots and worked ahead to set up his secondary pitches. Has confidence in a big slow curveball and will work a straight change to left handers. Solid all around athlete who should keep improving in all areas. Good student.
