11/06/2022 - Official College Recruiting Membership - Tomball (Houston), TX Mateo is a SS/RHP prospect who will graduate in 2023. Medium frame athletic build with strength present and room to add throughout. At SS, he takes aggressive routes to batted balls, with fluid/active feet, and showed ability to play through the ball. He works from down to up, with ability to pick out hops, and fields from an athletic/square fielding position with a low funnel. Showed a glove angle with soft hands out front. Has a short/quick arm stroke in back, with ability to throw from multiple arm slots, and an arm velocity up to 87mph. On the mound, he gets a good rear hip coil and keeps his front side closed throughout delivery. He works with good tempo and showed ability to repeat his delivery. Attacks hitters with a FB that sits 82-84mph with arm side run and plus command. He mixes in an 11/5 shaped breaking ball that flashes good depth, a slider from the same window as CB that has tight spin, and a changeup with arm side run that he throws with FB arm speed. SL was best pitch during his bullpen session. At the plate, he hits from an athletic and square stance. He hits into a firm front side and has a fast barrel through the hitting zone. A direct barrel path as he keeps his hands inside the ball. Made hard contact to the pull side with a bat exit velocity up to 88mph. With another year of growth and development, we foresee Mateo having opportunities to play at the next level.
