Rascals Baseball

RHP/INF Liam Decker (@othsbaseball, 2027) has a chance to be a big breakout this spring. Wiry athlete with a live arm, ran his FB up to 88 this past weekend, pitched at 86-87 mph. Strike feel for CH at 77-79 mph, spun big, bendy CB at 2500+ RPM, 72-73 mph. @LiamDecker08

OF Nolan Miller (@TriadBaseball, 2028) looking like one of the Metro East’s more promising sophomores. Physical with room to keep adding, leverages his long levers well to elevate. On the barrel with more juice to come; 85.7 mph average EV, 91.1 mph max. @ScoutConnectBB

One of our best looks at C Ben Tillman (@kahok_baseball, 2027), who improved in every aspect from this event last year. Short & uphill path with intent to lift pull side, 347 ft. peak distance. T80 mph from behind the plate, a +5 mph jump from ‘25s event. @BenjaminTi18477

C/RHP Trey Conrod (@WHSBulldogBase1) solidifying himself as a must-follow ‘27 grad from southern Illinois. On the barrel often G2G - 95.6 mph max EV, averaged 89.9 mph. 82 mph from the crouch, also sat 87-89 mph on the mound, low effort & clean out the hand. @TreyConrod13

LHP Carter Braddy (Effingham, 2027) once again looking like one of the top uncommitted junior arms in Illinois. FB sat 85-86 mph, turned CH over at 80-81 mph (6.3 VB, -17 HB). Showed better feel to spin than we’ve seen before, 75-76 mph, sharp at times. @braddycarter24
