2022 Northeast Academic Showcase
Michael Vilardi is a 2023 OF/RHP with a 6-2 180 lb. frame from Massapequa, NY who attends Massapequa. Vilardi works from a medium athletic build with strength present and additional room to fill out. Starting from his primary OF spot, he worked through the ball effectively with clean glove work and natural fluid actions, releasing from a lower 3/4 slot. Ultimately topped out at 79 mph. On the mound, he used a higher compact leg lift and 3/4 slot with clear life out of the hand touching 86 mph on the FB with run. His primary off speed selection was a slurvy breaker that he effectively manipulated shape and size of displaying solid horizontal slant for swing and miss. Offensively, the righty started from a slightly open stance peppering the middle / opposite field with a compact stroke while showing good feel for the barrel. He has strength in the hands, posting an exit velo of 81 mph. Ran a 7.30 sixty yard dash. Good student. Named to Top Prospect List.
