01/17/2025 - 2025 Baseball Factory Rookie Pre-Season All-America Tournament Cole continues to impress on the diamond, showing smooth, fluid actions at first base with active feet and proper footwork around the bag, making him a reliable receiver. Although his hands are clean, presenting them earlier and more out front will further refine his defensive play, and increasing his foot quickness will expand his range. Offensively, Cole features a closed setup, quick hands, and an aggressive swing path, staying inside the ball and using all fields with a line-drive approach. He generates power from an aggressive hip turn in his lower half. On the mound, his arm strength has improved, reaching a top velocity of 74 mph, with his fastball sitting between 73-74 mph and a breaking ball that shows a 10/4 shape and gradual break. As he builds more arm strength through a long toss program, his stock on the mound should continue to rise.
