WWBA Underclass Uncommitted: Part 1

Jered Goodwin
Photo: Drew Burress (Perfect Game)


Drew Burress (2023, Perry, Ga.) is a well-known prospect on the circuit. There are so many things that he does well, but it really comes down to two things for the talented outfielder: Burress is a winner and can really hit.
 




Michael Graziano (2023, Naples, Fla.) is tooled up. He can run, hit, throw, and the power is coming more consistently. Given his athleticism, he has a good chance to stay in center field and could fit very well at either the top or middle of a lineup at the next level.  
 
Tucker Holland (2023, Burlington, N.C.) is a 6-foot-5, 240-pound left-handed pitcher that at his best runs the heater into the low-90s with real life. He is ultra-competitive and has a four-pitch mix that simply racks up empty swings very quickly. Holland is a highest-level prospect on the national level. 
 
Dondreone Kennedy (2023, Fort Worth, Texas) combines excellent athleticism with solid mechanics in his right-handed swing. The hands are really explosive. He moves well on the infield and has enough arm strength to make all the plays on the left side of the diamond. There is two-way potential as he showcases upper-80s peaks. 
 
Jacob Hudson (2023, Scotts Valley, Calif.) is a good-looking power arm with a low-90s fastball that he gets good plane on and controls well. The SL/CH both flash well and the operation is easy with more heat coming. Hudson swings the bat also and shows some right-handed pop. 
 
Zaid Diaz (2023, Miramar, Fla.) has a strong and compact frame and he uses his core well to torque the barrel hard through the zone. He has a reputation for hitting in game and the power can be surprising, but shows up consistently. The arm strength plays in right field as well. 
 
Dylan Vigue (2023, Leominster, Mass.) has a super projectable 6-foot-3, 190-pound frame and looks like a solid two-way prospect at the next level. He fits on the left side and displays solid jump off the bat. On the bump he peaks in the low-90s with some run/ride on the fastball. He works down and can tunnel the SL/CU at times. 
 


Casey Borba (2023, Santa Ana, Calif.) simply rakes. He seems to get better at every stop and he always finds the fat of the barrel. The power is showing up more, though he doesn’t waver from an advanced all-fields approach. He plays a solid third base using good instincts and a strong throwing arm. He should easily play right away at the next level. 
 
Jeffrey Heuer (2023, Greensboro, Ga.) has the look of a true power arm. He sits around 90 mph already and can run it up close to the mid-90s at times. He backs it up with a good slider that has depth and shape and plays off the heater well. The sturdy build should allow him to log a ton of innings. 
 
Addison Smith (2023, Liberty, Mo.) has all the ingredients to pop in a big way. He has a tall and long frame that give him extra projection as he matures. He moves well at shortstop with good range and can make any movement play on the diamond. The switch-hitting ability puts the icing on the cake as both swings show upside with the left-handed swing that could become a true power stroke. 
 
Joey Tuttoilmondo (2023, Monmouth Junction, N.J.) has a strong workhorse build with a very loose arm and clean release. His low-90s fastball explodes on hitters. He has a three-pitch mix with a changeup and hard breaking curveball. The righty absolutely attacks hitters. 
 
Brayden Bakes (2023, Algonquin, Ill.) has a wide and strong build and he creates a ton of bat speed from a very simple process. There is length in the zone with his bat and massive power potential in the lefty stick. This is easy middle-of-the-lineup projection with the bat. 
 
Chris Smith (2023, Bartlett, Tenn.) has arm talent that produces low-90s heat at its best. The life to the pitch allows him to attack and win with it. The off-speed is coming along and as it does the overall package will be special. 
 
Isaiah Mack (2023, Cornelius, N.C.) has a massive frame with huge strength. The right-handed bat has lethal power potential. Right now though, he sticks to his inside path and all-fields approach that create hard line drives to the middle of the field. When extended it is special type pop. 
 


Isaiah Drake (2023, Atlanta, Ga.) combines tremendous athleticism with good polish in the left-handed batters box. The Georgia native crushes line drives to all fields and can easily change a game with his wheels and instincts on the bases. He also has athletic bloodlines that aid the future projection and he is young for the class. 
 
Pierce Boles (2023, Palm Beach Gardens, Fla.) has a 6-foot-2, 180-pound frame with a ton of pure arm speed that produces low-90s heat. Boles' slider is a power pitch and the changeup shows plenty of upside. It will be fun to watch him when he starts to have longer stints on the bump. There is quality upside here. 
 
Hunter Baynes (2023, Bradenton, Fla.) has a live 6-foot-2, 195-pound frame and the righty has a loose and easy arm stroke that fires low-90s fastballs. The CB/CU combination continue to show big strides and when put together is a starter profile. 
 
Amari Allen (2023, Washington, D.C.) has some two-way potential with his power left-handed arm on the mound and big power with his left-handed bat. Allen plays his sharp slider well off his lively fastball that has been up to 91. He can add and subtract with the heater and mix the 4/2-seam fastballs effectively. 
 
Nathanael Coupet (2023, Boynton Beach, Fla.) has a very heavy barrel and tons of pull-side carry off the bat. It’s a smooth stroke with good barrel awareness and the intent is real. He is very aggressive and stays in attack mode. The bat is the obvious big tool. 
 


Alex Karst (2023, Smyrna, Ga.) is an interesting prospect. At 6-foot-7, 215 pounds, he is a bit of a unicorn given his potential on the mound and at the plate. The plane on the fastball and heaviness to the pitch cannot be ignored. But the right-handed power is majestic when he is sync’d up and on time. The overall package is ready to be molded at the next level. 
 
Adison Worthman (2023, Bloomington, Ill.) has an explosive look at first appearance. Then you see him unleash the right-handed swing and realize the bat speed is electric. The power can rival anyone in the class and the streaks he puts together are downright impressive at times.

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.

Sophomore WWBA Scout Notes: Day 3-5

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...

Sophomore WWBA Scout Notes: Days 1-2

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...
