04/05/2024 - The Preseason All-Ripken Games - Myrtle Beach Colton had a loud appearance at the PreSeason All-Ripken Games highlighted by a HR to right field. The LHH generates excellent bat speed and controls the barrel well. He found the barrel often during the event adding a triple, double and 3 singles to the HR. His middle of the field approach is mature and he gets loaded well, and on time, while taking an aggressive hack when he sees a pitch he likes. Staying a bit more level at times with his path and staying square will continue to help Colton's consistency at the plate. Defensively he moves around the OF well and shows sure hands with a good first step. He was also very good on the mound with a fastball, curveball mix. He topped out at 58 mph and threw a high volume of strikes from an athletic, repeatable delivery. His tempo is very good, he mixed in a good move to 1B and he had a quiet confidence on the mound. Overall, Colton is an exciting prospect who we look forward to watching develop further.
