10/15/2016 - 2016 Under Armour Showcase: Baseball Factory's Futures South After quarterbacking his team to a victory on the football field the night before, Leyton switched gears to baseball for this BF Under Armour Futures event. A tribute to his ability and athleticism, he didn't miss a beat on the diamond, showing well both in the workout and during the game. Leyton took a solid BP showing bat speed and a line drive stroke that sprayed barreled balls to all fields. He carried over against live pitching and hit the ball hard in 2 of his 3 at bats. Behind the plate Leyton has a durable build that can take the pounding of the catching position and combined a quick exchange and arm strength to get the ball to 2B as low as 1.90. Leyton continues to improve and is an intriguing catching prospect to continue to follow.
