Ivan Brethowr
OF
Age:
21.5
JR
Olathe, KS
UC Santa Barbara
Brethowr is the Gregor Clegane of baseball with athleticism and arm strength. He has 60-grade bat speed and blasts the ball, but he doesn't always do his damage in the air. He has some of the best contact quality but struggles to get to it in part because of below-average swing decisions and fringy bat-to-ball. He's a neutral value in the field with high upside but risk because of the hit tool.

Matt Ager
RHP
Age:
21.1
JR
Pleasanton, CA
UC Santa Barbara
Ager's low-80s sweeper is his best pitch, and he can throw it in any count for whiffs for strikes taken. He gets 11" of sweep at 81-85 and turns it into a curve at times in the upper-80s with a similar sweeping action but an extra 10" of drop. His mid-80s changeup's spin is the opposite of his heater with fade, whereas the heater has slight carry with minimal run. It's a four pitch mix and he can throw three of them for strikes. He's up to 96 and sits 91-95 but there's room for more in his lengthy 6-foot-5 frame.
