2B Henry Godbout (Virginia Baseball) is a college bat to keep a close eye on this season. Following a solid Freshman season—and an impressive showing in the Northwoods League—Godbout exploded last year to the tune of a .372/.472/.645 slash line with 18 2B, 9 HR, 47 RBIs and more BB (29) than Ks (20). Across a brief 9-game stint on the Cape, Godbout went 11-for-36 (.306) with 3 2B, 1 HR, and 9 RBIs. Athletic build at 6'2" and 190-lbs with some length in the lower-half and budding physicality. Fairly upright stance in the box with an open front side. High handset, hands start pretty far back. Minimal load, leg lift leads into a normal stride. Generates effortless plus bat speed, head stays quiet and level throughout his operation. Consistent quick and tight turns with his hips. Does a great job of working inside the baseball. Just a real hitterish look. Godbout's calling card is his hit tool. Pull-oriented approach, but will occasionally work to the opposite field. Hand eye coordination is outstanding. Highly advanced feel for the barrel that he pairs with plus (closer to a 70 than a 60) bat-to-ball skills and a polished approach. Ran a 92% overall IZ contact rate last spring, including 95% against FB, 91% against SL and 90% against CB. Feasts on heaters - contact rate against all FB was 95%. No issues with velo, either. Hit .556 against all FB 93+. Would stick a 60 on his hit tool. Godbout has some impact to the pull side, which is where all of his HR power (at least right now) comes from. Last year's Max EV of 106.4 doesn't necessarily jump off the page, but there's potentially more impact on the way and you're buying the hit tool. Raw power right now is a tick below average (avg. to pull side). Godbout is a strong defender at 2B, where he is a safe bet to stick professionally. Range in either direction (especially up the middle), soft hands, average arm, and a good clock. Makes all the plays he should. First-round upside this July. (🎥: Virginia Baseball)

SS Dean Curley (Tennessee Baseball) is one of the top Sophomore-eligible prospects in this year's Draft. Earned the starting shortstop job as a Freshman and hit .285/.386/.502 with 10 2B, 12 HR, and 50 RBIs. After winning the National Title, Curley also enjoyed a productive stint with Team USA. Curley has a big league body at 6'3" and 212-lbs with length in his lower-half and strength and physicality throughout. Slightly crouched setup in the box with a medium-high handset. Small stride with a minimal load in which he deploys a slight barrel tip. Curley has big time hand speed and an engaged lower-1/2 - fan of the scissor action with his back leg. It's an under control operation/easy operation with minimal moving parts, and one in which he takes a short and direct path to contact. Head stays level. There's a really appealing compact explosiveness to it. Curley has a knack for finding the barrel to go along with plus bat-to-ball skills. Sported an overall IZ contact rate of 90% last season, including 93% against FB. Difficult to beat with the heater and handles velocity well. Hit .304/.515/.348 against 94+, including .500/.611/.571 against 95+ (albeit a smaller sample size). While there's some swing and miss against spin, Curley has a sound approach and his swing decisions are polished. Pitch recognition skills took a step forward with Team USA, curious to see if that carries over into the spring. Comfortable giving the hit tool a 50 right now, though it's closer to a 55. On top of his hitability, Curley has above-average raw power (plus to the pull side). His highest quality of contact—and the vast majority of his HR power—is to the PS, but he has the strength to drive the baseball to all fields. Routinely impacts the baseball and is able to do so with relative ease. On top of his 90th-percentile EV of 107, Curley posted a Max EV of 110.8. Very enticing hit-power blend. Curley is a slam dunk to stick on the left side of the infield, it's just a matter of where. Started every day at SS last spring and is slated to do so again in 2025. He has an advanced baseball sense with a comfortably plus arm and some range to the arm side. There is a chance he eventually moves to 3B in pro ball where the arm and actions will both translate well. There's a lot to like with Curley from a tools standpoint on both sides of the baseball. He can impact the game in a myriad of ways and is on track to be a top-50 overall selection this July. (📽️: Tennessee Baseball)

OF Trevor Condon (Tennessee Baseball) was one of my favorite position players I saw in Jupiter. Collected 7 hits (1 XBH) and 4 RBIs across 5 games. Slightly undersized, but there's some impact (mainly to the pull side) packed into his frame. Wiry, athletic build at 5'11" and 175-lbs. Prototypical top-of-the-order table setter. Explosive and twitchy operation in the box with no-doubt plus bat speed. Feel for the barrel is there, high-level bat-to-ball skills. Controlled the zone well with polished swing decisions in my looks last week. Does tend to hit the ball on the ground, would like to see more line drives. Hit-over-power profile with some PS thump. Gets out of the box unbelievably quick, turned in 70-grade run times. Condon's tantalizing combination of speed and athleticism translates well to centerfield. He can really go and get it and has plenty of range, but if he can shore up his routes (take a more efficient, crisp path to the baseball) he has a chance to become an impact defender. The intangibles with Condon are a nice cherry on top. Advanced baseball sense; stole 2nd on a great dirt ball read, swiped 3rd on a well-executed shuffle lead. Incredibly high motor, plays with his hair on fire. Does not take a pitch off! Always involved, brings the juice! Like the Energizer bunny. Kind of a throwback player in that sense - it's clear he LOVES to play! Think along the lines of Sal Frelick/Slater de Brun (SDB better defender at this point with more of a physical, barrel-chested look). Top 2-3 round type for me this July.

SS Marek Houston (Wake Forest Baseball) is one of the premier college infielders in this year's Draft. After earning the starting SS job as a true Freshman, Houston had a standout summer with the Amsterdam Mohawks in which he hit .429/.557/.548 with 4 XBH and 13 RBIs in 17 games. He proceeded to break out last season to the tune of a .326/.434/.516 slash line with 16 2B, 8 HR, and 39 RBIs. Had an impressive summer that was split between the Cape and Team USA. Did what very few college players do anymore and started on the Cape, went to Team USA, and finished out the summer back on the Cape. Was a CCBL All-Star and hit .306/.465/.329 with more BB (26) than Ks (21). Lean, athletic build at 6'3" and 190-lbs. Pro body. Somewhat wide base in the box with a medium-high handset. Puts the majority of his weight on his back side. Minimal load in which he wraps his bat a bit. Small stride with average bat speed. Will eliminate his stride and widen his base in 2-strike counts. Takes a direct path to contact. Compact, contact-oriented operation. Does a nice job of consistently working inside the baseball. The most appealing part of Houston's offensive profile is how polished his hit tool is. Bat-to-ball skills are comfortably plus and last season he ran an overall IZ contact rate of 92%. Pitch recognition skills and swing decisions are both advanced, and this summer on the Cape he worked a remarkably low overall chase rate of 16% - including just 8% against SL. Will use the entire field. It's a bit of a cliche, but he hits the pitch where it's thrown. Hit tool is without a doubt a 55, but closer to a 60 than it is a 55. Biggest question mark right now is his impact and how much is in there. Flashed some pull side thump during the spring, but it's below-average power with wood. Again though, you're buying the hit tool. Adding impact both this year and beyond is key, though. Houston's calling card is undoubtedly his defense. Pro shortstop through and through. Silky smooth actions, range both up the middle and to his arm side. Comfortable attacking the baseball and throwing on the run/from different arm angles. Soft hands with an above-average arm. Instincts are high level. He does a great job of staying behind the baseball then working THROUGH it on a line. The epitome of "suave!" Top-40 overall type this July. (🎥: Wake Forest Baseball)
