Jupiter Uncommitted Standouts: Hitters

With the 2022 WWBA World Championships coming to an end earlier this week, uncommitted players from across the country left their mark on the amateur baseball world, with hoards of college recruiters looking on, meaning some of these players won't be uncommitted for too much longer. Part 1 of this project looks at some of the hitters who stood out, with a follow-up article soon looking at pitchers who opened some eyes and lit up the radar guns. 
 

Jeffrey Davis (2023, Moline, Ill.) had a big event with seven hits in just five games in Jupiter. He has an athletic 5-foot-10, 175-pound frame with lots of strength in the hands. His short stroke from both sides has plenty of accuracy and sticks to a solid line drive approach, also finding the green on a pair of doubles.

Seth Rajacich (2023, Apple Valley, Calif.) has a projectable 6-foot-2, 170-pound frame with loose levers and good length through the zone. He gets good whip and creates back spin to all fields. The approach is patient and he can work walks, but did show some aggressive traits with runners in scoring position, as he knocked in a few as well. This is a good left-handed bat to build on at the next level.



Kale Fountain (2024 Lincoln, NE) had an impressive week hitting over .300 with a massive homerun that cleared the trees on the Marlins quad. He is a strong right handed hitter with a physical presence at 6-5/226. He can handle either corner infield spot, but there is no reason that he should not develop longterm at third base. The underclassman hit in the middle of the order and produced. 

Andrew Swenson (2023, Enola, Pa.) used his quick bat to hit .500 during the event, including a homer. He has a frame that can easily add strength to help continue to build the power profile, but he is best staying in the middle of the field. The profile fits the top of the order as he also swiped five bags, showing good instincts and timing on the bases.

Noah Konings (2023, Bramton, Ontario) has a strong 6-foot, 180-pound build that creates solid bat speed through contact. He had six hits on the weekend, belting a double, on his way to hitting .375. He is also a solid runner, putting up 6.8 times in the 60-yard dash.

Bradley Garner (2023, Richmond, Va.) notched five hits during his four games in South Florida, showing the ability to hit velocity during the event. There is some power and lift in the swing and the 6-foot-1, 182-pounder has lots of room to add strength. Garner could also be used in multiple spots on the dirt.

Zekey Borel (2023, Highlands Ranch, Colo.) put together a very consistent week, hitting over .300 with a double to go with his four walks. He also showed solid ability to hit with runners in scoring position, as he knocked in three runs. He has an athletic look with a 6-foot, 185-pound frame and looks the part of a future power hitting corner outfielder.

Corey Fields (2023, Acworth, Ga.) is an explosive athlete with well above-average wheels that can be used on both sides of the ball to help change games. The right-handed hitter hit a robust .600 on the weekend and blistered a double and a triple during a great showing at the WWBA World Championship.  

Jacob Cooper (2023, Douglasville, Ga.) is a very physical 5-foot-11, 195-pound backstop and looks like a throwback behind the dish. He has big forearms that help create a ton of impact when out front. The powerful right-handed hitter blasted a homer during the event and hit a solid .400 on the weekend.


Drew Reaves (2023, Pensacola, Fla.) was featured in our uncommitted gems article before the event, and he did not disappoint. He has a compact swing and lots of bat-to-ball skills to go with his toughness in the right-handed batters' box. The well-rounded infielder has traits that can play early at the next level.

Luis Castillo (2023, Talbott, Tenn.) can be the guy you want to walk off the bus first with his Greek God-like 6-foot-5, 210-pound frame. He had a monster Jupiter, hitting .444 with a 1.694 OPS, barreling three extra-base hits, including a homer. There is monstrous power potential in the right-handed bat that should find its way into a middle of the lineup at the next level.

Ethan Bosley (2023, Edgewood, Ky.) used a very mature approach to display on-base skills during his time in Jupiter. He walked three times, clubbed three hits, and split the outfield for a triple. The right-handed hitter seemed to be on time during all his at-bats and with that type of hit tool, he should garner more interest.

Logan Chapman (2023, Apopka, Fla.) brought a calm, mature disposition to the right-handed box in Jupiter. He hit from start to finish and it resulted in a .538 average and 1.262 OPS. He has strength and fluidity that should allow him to continue to hit while the power will organically come.

Walker Vanecek (2023, Riverview, Fla.) hit .500 with a double during the most competitive tournament of the year. His 6-foot, 215-pound frame already has lots of strength, and his ability to identify pitches should give him a quality power/patience profile early on at the next level. He had a big 2022 circuit, producing over a 1.000 OPS with five homers.


Ariel Antigua (2023, Lake Worth, Fla.) was the event MVP and seemed to be the guy you wanted in the box to get the big hit. He had two doubles,  a homer, five walks, five RBI, and scored nine runs to absolutely stuff an event line. He also stole three bags and played sure-handed at shortstop on his way to a championship.

Top 100 Collegiate Freshmen

Vincent Cervino
Article Image
As we creep toward opening day here in a month or so, the draft team has put together the Top 100 freshmen on campus this spring.  Three high-end arms lead the way, starting with Jack Bauer. The Mississippi State left-hander reached triple digits as a prep and is sure to make an immediate impact this spring. UCLA right-hander Angel Cervantes was selected in the 2nd round of last year’s draft but held firm on his commitment and should be an impact arm for the Bruins. Following the arms, a collection of bats rounds out the Top 10. There is loads of upside to the group with the potential and they should draw considerable playing time as freshman.  As the list gets deeper, there are plenty of players that should pop up and make significant contributions both this year and years down the line. The class has both depth and talent, making for a very intriguing group of...

LSU Reloads & Returns; Opens No. 1

“How do you get to success? You have to honor the process that you built to get to that success…The standard is how we operate, train, and get better each day.”” Process-oriented leadership is a popular coaching strategy here in the mid-2020s but no one exemplifies that more than LSU head coach Jay Johnson. He’s won the Tigers two national titles during his time in Baton Rouge and expectations won’t be any lower in 2026 as LSU is the No. 1 team in the country in Perfect Game’s Preseason Top 25.  Johnson is heading into his fifth season at the helm in Baton Rouge and it’s fair to say that he has already experienced enormous success. There have been two national titles in four years (2023, 2025), a Golden Spikes winner (Dylan Crews, 2023), a first overall MLB Draft pick (Paul Skenes, 2023), and five first-round MLB Draft picks during...

With an interesting and action-packed fall behind us, a new college season is just around the corner. The college game continues to prove it is alive and well as the Division 1 team count has now ballooned to 308 teams for the 2026 season. With new legislation allowing teams 5-weeks to prepare for opening day, many student athletes have returned to campus and will begin skill related workouts soon. Opening Day, as usual, will fall on Valentine’s Day weekend and it is just six weeks away. After a fall of evaluation and months of research and discussion, we are ready to release our annual Perfect Game pre-season Top 25 poll.

The transfer portal, JUCO gems, 6th year waivers and impact freshman; following the college game and figuring out rosters is basically a fulltime job nowadays.

Griffin Boesen (‘27, IA) shoots this one backside down the line. Adds his second hit of the day. Picked up a base knock. Physical LH bat w/ an ability to drive the baseball here. @IowaPG @PG_Uncommitted @CanesMidwest #WWBAWorlds https://t.co/pmpIzaAbLz pic.twitter.com/Qz0CHiS3P1 — Perfect Game Scout (@PG_Scouting) October 13, 2025 Griffin Boesen, Class of 2027 Commitment: Duke Another top 100 prospect is off the board as the Corey Muscara led Duke Blue Devils picked up a physical two-way prospect in Boesen out of Florida recently. At 6-foot-5, 205 pounds, Boesen looks the part of a middle of the order type slugger and he's just that, showing lots of looseness and bat speed in his left-handed stroke and is coming off a Jupiter where he hit .700 (!!) as an underclassman while driving in 10 runs. The bat-to-ball skills are obvious as he simply hit at all the big stops in 2025,...

That's just absolutely insane.

Samir Mohammed up to 97 mph on the mound, Bryce Fontenot with a max exit velocity of 103 mph and a 6.22 60-yard out of Dylan Seward are all otherworldly numbers that you'd expect to find on a college campus, much less a junior in high school.  Below we check in on several categories for the Class of 2027 and will continue to do so through the week, taking in the top 10 for each, from both Perfect Game showcases and tournaments.  Top Fastball Velocity Rk Player FB Event Commitment School Hometown 1 Samir Mohammed 97 2025 PG WWBA World Championship Louisiana State Tampa Jesuit Trinity, FL 2 Connor Salerno 96 2025 PG WWBA World Championship Mississippi State Sun Valley Indian Trail, NC...
