08/11/2024 - National Showcase - Council Bluffs (Omaha), IA Jake is a rising junior RHP/OF from Sioux Falls, SD. Tall frame lean build with room to add throughout. Good reads off bat enable him to create good angles to ball. Fields from a square fielding position and has a clean exchange. Keeps his momentum going towards his target as he made accurate throws into infield. He hits into a firm front side and gets extended. Tracks pitches well and keeps his head still. During his round of BP, he squared up balls to all fields with a bat exit velocity up to 79mph. Has a projectable frame on the mound and works downhill. Shows a quick arm and gets his chest to his glove. Works off of his FB that sits 75-76mph with plus command. He mixes in a breaking ball and changeup with sinking action. With another year of growth and development, we foresee this 2-2ay player improving in all phases of his game.
