Silva was a highly regarded freshman last season and got better as the year went on. He's a lock to stay at short and has plus athleticism with smooth and easy actions. He lacks definitive power and thump, but his bat-to-ball skills are above-average and he has enough barrel accuracy to run solid BABIPs which should drive his production alongside average bat speed. He'll be a solid average regular in the show.

Abeldt throws from a horizontal slot, releasing the ball with a 5.1’ release height and 4.7’ release side. He throws 70% fastball and works in the mid 90s with the pitch. The slider is a draw, a low-80 pitch with 5” of sweep, 42.4% whiff and 31.9% chase. His cross-fire release creates a 98th percentile SL HAA at 6.16 degrees, maximizing the angle to his glove-side. The change-up shape is great, with 14.2” of arm-side and minimal vertical break.

Silva’s shortstop defense is plus and a carrying tool in a vacuum. He’s got great instincts and lateral quickness, but the arm is average. I have the hit tool graded as above-average, he rarely whiffs (13.6% in-zone, 20.5% overall) and makes quality swing decisions. The power ticked up in 2024, 110.3 mph Max EV, but he’s struggled to get to it. There’s a world in which you have an above-average offensive producer and true everyday SS, which is a great profile to have in your organization.

Tolle lacks the traits to be a solid pitcher, but he has plus bat speed and nearly hit a ball 120 mph last year. It's easy power, but he doesn't always get to his power in games due to well below-average bat-to-ball skills. He's been a touch better than average as a college hitter in his career which isn't good enough at 1B. His tools as a sophomore were similar to Ivan Melendez's as a junior. But he'll need to make major improvements with his decisions and barrel accuracy to make the same jump Ivan did in his senior year.

Parker missed his sophomore season with an injury, He was a highly regarded pitcher out of high school and pitched a lot for the Horned Frogs as a freshman. His heater is well below-average with a generic shape that lacks run or ride, and he's usually only 89-93 with it. His slider has sweep at 78-82, and his curveball is solid in the mid-70s, but neither has the quality to get big league hitters out anytime soon. His changeup has the most potential of his arsenal, and he's been up to 95 in the past. He has the size to gain some ticks and could be a notable prospect once again this draft.
