Florida Super Qualifier Notes

Photo: Luis Fuentes (Perfect Game)

Providing a spark at the top of the order for Platinum Baseball, Jake Carsello (2020, Plantation, Fla.) got things started with a first inning run following an infield hit. Showing off his speed, Carsello stole a bag, which put himself in scoring position. The 5-foot-9, 140-pound center fielder moves well and is an above average defender in the outfield.

Carsello’s teammate Franklin Vasquez (2021, Hollywood, Fla.) showed an aggressive pull-side approach, going 2-for-2 with a double. Both hits were driven into left field, and Vasquez has good bat speed. He is comfortable in the box with an opened stance and uses a leg lift. Getting his front foot down early, Vasquez is able to see the ball well and look to drive the ball.

Ben Lira (2021, Fort Myers, Fla.) also went 2-for-2 playing for Canes Baseball. The 5-foot-10 outfielder shows a solid approach at the plate and can work a count. Doubling to left field in his first at-bat, Lira jumped on a fastball and didn’t miss it. He has a good feel for the game and is athletic.

A tall, lean infielder, Evan Lightbourn (2020, Parkland, Fla.) has a projectable body and once filled out will have a strong, athletic presence on the field. He has a compact swing with no wasted movements. He keeps his long arms inside the baseball and can attack the middle of the field with line drives at the plate.

Flashing solid defensive skills behind the plate, Logan Piedra (2021, Pembroke Pines, Fla.) is an athletic catcher with some present strength. He showed off his arm strength by throwing out a runner attempting to steal second base. Later in the game, Piedra used his quickness to pick a ball in the dirt, popped up and applied the tag on the hitter attempting to run to first after he swung through strike three. Piedra’s tag was applied before the hitter-turned-runner could even get out of the batter’s box.

The catcher showed a solid approach at the plate as well. Falling behind 0-2 in the count, Piedra went into a two-strike approach fouling off a few pitches. He then simplified his swing and went back up the middle for a base hit.

Slugging two doubles from the leadoff spot, Lucas Serra (2020, Miami Lakes, Fla.) combined his strong barrel awareness and speed to set the tone for South Florida Select 16u. The 5-foot-11, 165-pound center fielder has a quick bat through the zone and has a nice line drive approach.

Hitting behind Serra in the two-hole, Nicolas Boza (2020, Miami Lakes, Fla.) uses an inside-out swing with line drive results. Picking up a hard contact single to center, Boza stayed inside the ball to knock it up the middle. He has a strong lower half with room to add on upper body strength later on.

One of the best throws from the entire tournament came out of the hand of left fielder Jonathan Ramallo (2020, Miami, Fla.) A toolsy player standing 6-foot-1, 185-pounds, Ramallo has a plus arm from the outfield and throws with accuracy. He unleashed a bullet about 280 feet away from home plate and deliver a strike to the catcher on a line for an out after a base hit.

A physical hitter that consistently hits loud line drives, Frank Elissalt (2020, Miami, Fla.) collected a few hits vs Florida Elite. With present strength and a strong 185-pound, 6-foot-1 frame, Elissalt generates a ton of power with his quick bat. He does damage with power on the pull side currently and can drive the ball into the gaps.

Third baseman Marcos Soler (2019, Miami, Fla.) provided a spark to Florida Elite’s offense against US Elite 2020, going 3-for-3 out of the three-hole with a double and three RBI. The 6-foot-3 slugger covers a lot of the plate with his long arms and has a fast bat through the zone.

Lefthander Joseph Delgado (2020, Hialeah, Fla.) started the game for Florida Elite and worked 4 1/3 innings. A strike thrower topping at 78 mph with his fastball and flashing a curveball with downer action, Delgado collected seven strikeouts. He is athletic with repeatable mechanics and has a good pitchers body at 6-foot, 180-pounds.

Yoidel Cabrera (2020, Miami, Fla.) quickly threw two-thirds of an inning, needing just 10 pitches to strike out both hitters he faced. Attacking the strike zone, Cabrera sat at 81-83 mph with his fastball, showing good arm speed. His fastball rode in on hitters and was tough to touch. Listed as a shortstop, Cabrera has tremendous athleticism and a strong arm.

SWFL Nation 2020 had a huge win over the GT Clowns, winning 22-0. Helping lead the offensive explosion was McFaddin (Mac) Moise (2020, Cape Coral, Fla.) going 2-for-2 with a double and two RBI. The Florida Gulf Coast recruit swings the bat well with a compact swing that is direct to the baseball.

The catcher also ripped a walk-off double to center field in the championship game against South Florida Select 16u.

Moise’s teammate Ridge Skarbek (2020, Indialantic, Fla.) had a strong day at the plate going 3-for-3 with three runs scored. The 5-foot-9 switch-hitter has a quick bat from both sides of the plate and a line drive approach to all fields. He plays a solid second base and has some utility value with the ability to play multiple positions.

Elite Squad 16u Rodriguez defeated SWFL Elite 2020 by a score of 4-1 on Monday morning. Throwing a complete game for Elite Squad was Cole Stasio (2020, Davie, Fla.) The 6-foot-2, 185-pound righthander has a big, durable body and shouldered the workload for six innings, striking out five and sitting 75-82 with his fastball. He showed the ability to attack both halves of the plate and pounded the zone.

Stasio got help from Albert Sanchez (2020, Hialeah, Fla.) who ripped a double to left field and scored a run. Sanchez has present pull power, and at only 5-foot-5, will grow and should see the power translate to home runs. His fly ball had good carry on it and Sanchez has good barrel awareness.

Center fielder Adrian Ojea (2020, Lake Worth, Fla.) hit well out of the two-hole for Banditos Florida 16u Prospects. Going 2-for-2 with a double and run scored, Ojea has a line drive swing and works counts well, getting walked twice. The lefthanded hitting outfielder has an ideal approach for the second spot in the order and plays a solid outfield, as well.

His teammate Trevor Scott (2021, Jupiter, Fla.) collected a few hits and the first baseman has some projection, standing 5-foot-11, 175-pounds. Scott has a quick barrel through the zone and sprays line drives all over the field.

Avery Thomas (2020, Deerfield Beach, Fla.) is a tall, athletic shortstop at 6-foot-1, 180-pounds. Thomas moves well on the field with a good first step and has some explosive hands at the plate. He drove in two runs for East Coast Baseball, going 2-for-3 in the process against TSA Elite 16u.

Miguel Rosado (2020, Cooper City, Fla.) worked six easy innings for South Florida Select. The 6-foot righthander has solid arm speed that generates a fastball that tops at 81 mph. He attacked the zone well and got on top of his pitches, creating a good angle. He mixed in a curveball at 68 mph and used both pitches to strikeout eight hitters in his six frames of work.

In the championship game, Luis Fuentes (2020, Coral Springs, Fla.) turned in a masterful pitching performance, going six strong, no-hit innings. The righthander was 82-85 mph with his fastball that he worked in and out well. He showed solid command of his changeup at 74 mph that got swings and misses to lefthanded hitters. The pitch came out of the same arm speed as his fastball and showed deception. Fuentes struck out six batters and shows how tough he can be to hit when on. Driving off his back leg well, he works his whole body into his delivery and gets solid extension.

Pitching equally well and picking up a win in the process, Sehjin Daley (2020, Tampa, Fla.) threw seven strong frames of one-hit ball. The 6-foot, 195-pound righty has a durable, workhorse body type and proved it with his shutout. He mixed in a curveball and slider combo to complement his 80-84 mph fastball. He showed solid feel for both pitches, landing them for strikes at time and showing the ability to expand the zone later in counts.

Midwest Invitational Scout Notes

Tyler Kotila
Article Image
Creighton Tuzzio (2024, Clarinda, Iowa) took the ball in the semi-final game and was able to get on the bump and carve for his team. Tuzzio is a taller 6-foot-6, 210-pound frame with plenty to like in the operation. The right-handed pitcher has a slower and more controlled operation as he works through the delivery. He lifts the leg up around the belt and then works through a three-quarters release with good whip through it. The fastball worked up to 86 mph on the fastball and held in the low- to mid-80s. He creates some angle on it with the taller & projectable frame. It runs arm-side and can be a problem for right-handed hitters. He also showed a low-70s curveball with a bigger 11/5 tilt to it and good depth to miss some bats. The Iowa Western commit threw 5.0 innings, allowing just 1 run, with 4 walks and 6 strikeouts to his credit.   There’s no surprise here, but...

Michael Flores (2026, NC) looking great through 4 innings pitched with 11 k’s. Great command and completely missing barrels. #2023WWBACoastalSophmoreFallInvatational pic.twitter.com/Oqd3WD0E05 — PG Coastal Scouting (@PG_Coastal) September 24, 2023 Michael Flores (2026, Mooresville, NC) put on an electric performance to watch for the SBA Futures 2026 in their matchup versus the Carolina Reds. The 5-foot-10, 175-pound, RHP did his job for his team today to keep them in the game. Flores throws with a high leg lift and creates some good motions towards the plate with his whippy action. Flores has a great feel for the zone and pounded strikes at a 66% rate. Flores generated swing and miss after swing and miss and it was clear he was in control out there on the mound. He sat in the 70-mph range to 79-mph range with his fastball with the ability to pinpoint it wherever he pleased....

James Sherry (’26, Aiken, S.C.)- the 6-foot-1, 155-pound right-handed pitcher tossed a complete game for Xtreme Xposure Baseball-Bennett in an 8-1 win over 2 Way Athletics 16U. A primary outfielder, Sherry finished with 15 strikeouts and just one walk while controlling the zone at a 65% strike rate. Appearing in only his second PG tournament, Sherry turned in another great pitching performance after being selected to the All-Tournament Team at the 2023 16U PG Southeast Labor Day Classic.

A high speed look at this 2B from Keon Johnson... #WWBAWorlds @PG_Georgia https://t.co/Ejl8GirIgk pic.twitter.com/ate7ro35cp — Perfect Game Scout (@PG_Scouting) September 24, 2023 Keon Johnson (2026, Macon, Ga.) started off the morning loud, going down to get a pitch down and smoking a double that split the opposite field gap at a 92 mph exit velocity. The shortstop has one of the best hit tools in the class and has tremendous feel for the barrel. The swing is quiet and simple, staying loose through the zone. The ball jumps and the parts really work. At short, Johnson looked silky with good actions, range, and plenty of arm strength across. The game comes easy for the Georgia native, and still just 15, the all-around game is very well-refined for the age.  Jaxson Wood (2026, Hoover, Ala.) finished batting .500 over the tournament, including three extra-base hits.

Deep South Fall Invitational Scout Notes

Alex Dorso
Article Image
Patrick Kovacs (2026 Knoxville TN) was dominant in his outing in game two of pool play for Exposure National. The southpaw tossed three scoreless innings allowing two hits while striking out eight. He showed plus command of the fastball dotting it to both sides of the plate while working off the corners at times. Patrick sat 75-78 topping at 79 multiple times throughout. He mixed in a tight breaking ball with two plane movement that he had no problem mixing in any count keeping the opposing hitters off balanced in the box. Coming from a mid 3/4s slot there was some deception within the operation making it tough to pick the fastball up out of the hand. The frame has plenty of athleticism within with plenty of more room for additional strength as he continues to mature. Kovacs should be a fun follow as he continues to progress through high school. Ryan Riojas (‘26 TN) drives this...

The big and physical 6-foot-4, 210-pound arm threw a complete game, seven inning, one-hit shutout, striking out 13 and walking one. The fastball had downhill life to it, sitting in the 85-88 range for the entirety of the game. Garrison held the velocity and reached back for his fastest bullet of the game, at 89, in the seventh inning. Finishing the outing with 70% strikes, he filled up the zone and went right at hitters. He also induced swing-and-miss on a curveball, featuring late...

Northeast Qualifier Scout Notes

Jack Harley (2024, Mendham, NJ) put together a dominant performance at the plate in the WWBA NEQ, leading his team to a coveted Jupiter bid while also earning MVP-honors. The 6-foot-1 left-handed hitter showcased his advanced bat-to-ball skills on several occasions. He batted .643 with two doubles, a home run and six stolen bases. Harley utilizes a repeatable, synced-up stroke with clean separation into launch. He has a great feel for the barrel and creates good strength at impact to all parts of the diamond. The future Hokie recorded a hit in all six of his games and proved to be a reliable bat at the top-of-the-order for Clubhouse 2024 EvoShield. Harley’s build offers a good balance of strength and athleticism, making him a well-rounded prospect with intriguing upside moving forward.  .#VandyBoys commit Aiden O’Connell (‘24, NH) is back on the bump in the #NEQ...

Nathan Caldwell (2026, Columbia, S.C.) looked the part in the batter’s box as the Team Elite three-hole hitter had one of the hardest hit balls of the day. There’s really impressive bat speed and the ability to create violence and rotational acceleration through contact. He missiled a single during the game and there looks like there’s going to be pretty significant impact potential long term. He’s a strong kid with good indicators and offensive tools to like. Drew Borkowski (2026, Huntley, Ill.) showed plenty to like in the arm as he got the start in game one on the day for GRB. At 6-foot-1, 170-pounds he’s got a lanky frame with long limbs and plenty of room for physical projection. It’s a quick arm with solid arm speed throughout and he opened up sitting 85-87 mph with the fastball. The fastball showed good sinking life and he used it to get a lot...
