Perfect Game Staff

Anthony Gambardella

Alex Comire (2024, Manchester, NH) has put together an impressive summer thus far and made sure to keep the bat hot this past weekend. The 5-foot-11 right-handed hitter posted 10 hits and crossed home eight times, both of which were highs for the event. He batted .556 with five RBIs to go along with an on-base percentage of .652. Comire impressed with his ability to put the baseball in-play as he earned his way on base in a multitude of ways. He has a very consistent barrel that works the entire field. Comire proved to be a tough out for opposing pitchers as he went 23 plate appearances without striking out. The 2024 prospect also displayed the ability to work both gaps, showing glimpses of some power potential.

Adrian Tavarez (2025, Westbury, NY) continued his dominant summer at the plate with a .500 showing. The athletic 5-foot-9 right-handed hitter showcased his nifty barrel skills and budding power tool. He has tons of strength in the hands with impressive power to all parts of the field. Tavarez continued to turn a lot of heads this past weekend when he launched another long home run. He utilizes the lower-half well and creates tons of force and strength at impact when he barrels up the baseball. Currently uncommitted, Tavarez will be a name to monitor over the next several months.

Colin Horowitz (2025, Massapequa, NY) put together an efficient outing last Saturday. The right-hander struck out ten batters over five innings of work and allowed just one man on base. The fastball showed tons of life through the zone and topped out at 80 mph. He controlled his mix very well, landing his off-speed offerings for strikes both early and late in counts. Horowitz got ahead of counts early and often, working the four quadrants of the strike zone effectively.

Andrew Basel (2024, Mineola, NY) ran his fastball with tons of arm-side run up to 87 mph early on. He retired 11 of 13 batters via the strikeout throughout his 4.1 innings of work, blowing the heater by opposing hitters. He mixes his well-tunneled slider fairly well in the latter portion of counts. The velocity is effortless and will continue to climb as the 6-foot-3 right-hander adds strength to his frame. Basel projects well as an arm.

Hudson Cavallo (2025, Hopewell Junction, NY) impressed with another solid outing on the bump, striking out eight batters over six innings. The West Virginia commit wears a long, lanky 6-foot-6 frame with tons of physical upside and room to fill. He ran his heavy fastball up to 88 mph with it sitting in the 85-86 mph range throughout the duration of his outing. He landed a breaking ball with some vertical tilt and late bite to it for swings and misses. Cavallo will be an intriguing arm to follow over the next few years.

Luke Guerriere (2025, White Plains, NY) pounded the strike zone in his start on Saturday. The 6-foot left hander tossed a complete game, allowing just one run on three hits. He fanned 10 batters and produced tons of weak contact, earning him quick outs. Guerriere’s fastball sat in the mid- to upper-70s but it was located well and dodged several barrels early and late in counts. The uncommitted rising junior swings it well too so he will certainly be a prospect to keep an eye on over the next year or so.

Matthew Gileno (‘25, NY) drove in six in this one, including four from this grand slam. Wide stance with good barrel control and impact ability. #NESelect @PG_Scouting pic.twitter.com/9tOrfwWOk6
— PG Mid Atlantic (NY, NJ, PA, MD,DE,DC) (@PGMidAtlantic) August 12, 2023

Matthew Gileno (2025, Syosset, NY) continues to solidify himself as a top performer with another fantastic weekend at the plate batting .583 (7 for 12) while racking up three extra-base hits including two home runs. The left-handed batter is able to generate consistent pull-side power utilizing a short stride pairing extremely quick hands. Gilenos physical profile and raw hitting ability make him a great candidate to succeed at the next level.

Joseph Tagliavia (2025, Massapequa Park, NY) was an absolute force on both sides of the ball for Team Francisco serving as a prime contributor to their PG Championship. Right-hander Tagliavia provided six innings of one run ball on the bump while punching out eight and securing the MV-Pitcher award. Tagliavia commanded his fastball with excellence despite reaching a new PG personal high of 87 mph. He mixed in a deceptive breaker in the mid-70s and generated plenty of swings and misses with his short arm action. On the offensive end Tagliavia batted .700 (7 for 10) and included five stolen bags.

Jordan Welch (2024, Farmingdale, NY) picked up the MV-Player award this past weekend in Long Island as he raked at the plate. The physically imposing right-handed hitter batted .400 (6 for 14) while knocking in six and scoring eight runs. Welch displayed his strength launching two deep home runs and was up to 86 during his five innings of work on the mound. Welch should be an interesting prospect to watch as he continues to develop his existing skills.

Tyler Cook (2024, Glenwood Landing, NY) was yet another offensive factor for Team Francisco aiding their tournament success. Cook batted .538 (7 for 13) and while collecting five walks posting an overall tournament OBP of .667. The right-handed catcher knocked in four at the plate while coming around the bases six times. He showcased overall maturity between his plate discipline and base running skills.

Rohan Shah (2024, Hicksville, NY) certainly turned some heads as he punched out 10 batters in four no-hit frames of work this past weekend in Long Island. The right-handed pitcher utilized a low-80s fastball with lots of arm side action and paired a low-70s curveball commanding both pitches around the zone.

-Mason Wood

Garrett Snyder (2025, Unionville, CT) lasted four innings in his start over the weekend, striking out five and allowing just four hits with none earned. Working from a strong and sturdy 6-foot-5 frame, Snyder reached 89 mph with the fastball, sitting in the mid-80s. His breaking ball is a high-70s slider with late bite. A repeatable and easy short-arm delivery, Snyder pounded the zone with all of his offerings, limiting baserunners.

Brendan Horne (‘25, NH) powers this one to CF for a triple. Big frame with a quick barrel and some impact ability. #NESelect @PG_Scouting pic.twitter.com/2Qd6nktpMv
— PG Mid Atlantic (NY, NJ, PA, MD,DE,DC) (@PGMidAtlantic) August 13, 2023

Brendan Horne (2025, Hooksett, NH) had a strong weekend at the dish last weekend, collecting five hits, including a pair of doubles and a triple. He also showed good plate skills, walking four times and striking out just once in 18 at-bats. Horne put his speed and base running skills on display as well, swiping four bags. With a strong and athletic frame, Horne possesses bat speed that allows the barrel to fire through the zone with impact.

Joseph Hiller (2025, Center Moriches, NY) was terrific over his seven-inning shutout performance, striking out nine and allowing just four hits, walking none. Hiller possesses a strong and sturdy 5-foot-10 frame with athletic movements on the mound and a repeatable easy flow delivery, throwing from a low three-quarters slot. Hiller’s fastball sat in the lower-80s with some arm-side run and sink, along with a good curveball with late depth that produced swings. He pounded the zone with both offerings.

MLK East Scout Notes Recap

Perfect Game Staff

‘28 OF Jakob Groeschel (OH) continues to impress with the bat on the circuit, picked up 2 2Bs in the first game today. Really athletic, went 4.4 on turn; easy to dream on all the traits. #MLKEast @PG_OhioValley pic.twitter.com/wOIwnGKnkg — Perfect Game Florida (@Florida_PG) January 17, 2026 2028 OF Jakob Groeschel (Springfield, Ohio) broke out at this event last year hitting a casual .909, and although he didn’t turn in quite the same performance, he hit a strong .462 with 4 extra-base hits, 5 walks, 5 bags and only struck out once. He’s a pretty dynamic athlete who can do a lot of things well, but the bat is the calling card as he just lives on the barrel and has no problem handling all kinds of pitching. It’s a simple swing, but he’s got fast hands and he can really impact the ball without being overly physical yet. 2030 RHP Michael Vazquez...

California All Region & Top Tools

David Rawnsley

The 2026 class is one of the best in recent memory for the state of California, with 18 players ranking among the top 100 in the Perfect Game national rankings. Three PG All-Americans, IF Trey Ebel, OF Isaiah Hearn and RHP Logan Georges were all edged out of places on the California All-Region Team as a result. And although the 2027 class doesn’t look as deep, it does feature three Top Six players in SS Dylan Seward, LHP Jared Grindlinger and SS Carter Hadnot. Not surprisingly, California high schools are very well represented in the Perfect Game Pre-Season Top 50 rankings, particularly with 2025 Trinity League champion St. John Bosco beginning the season as the top ranked team in the country. A very deep Orange Lutheran squad holds down the third spot in the rankings, with 12th ranked De La Salle being the top team from Northern California. Corona (17th),...

PG Draft: Mid-Major Picks to Click

Tyler Henninger

While Power 4 prospects tend to soak up the bulk of the industry buzz, there’s plenty of legitimate talent lurking at the mid-major level. These are competitive programs that are loaded with players who have real tools, physicality, and performance track records that translate beyond their conference. Below are nine mid-major prospects we expect evaluators to be in early and often on this spring. Ethan Norby, LHP, East Carolina (Rank: 155) Norby is an undersized left-hander, but has produced strong numbers over two years at ECU. The left-hander has produced a 3.80 ERA with 182 strikeouts over 149 1/3 innings. While the velocity does not stand out, Norby can still miss bats with the heater. It works in the low-90’s and creeps towards 95 mph at times. Quality extension for his size and high spin allow that offering to get on hitters, resulting in weak contact as well as whiffs....

Georgia HS All Region & Top Tools

David Rawnsley

Georgia has its usual depth of high-level athletes and Perfect Game All-Americans, although three 2027 players did make the All-Region team. There are an unusual number of two-way prospects among the All-Region players, a testament to the big arms that the state has right now. Two Georgia high schools are ranked in the top 10 of the PG Pre-Season High School Top 50 rankings and the Georgia high school ranks are annually among the most competitive in the country. Etowah is the highest ranked team at 5th overall, while Blessed Trinity Catholic checks in at 8th. Parkview is the only other Georgia team in the top 50, holding down the 34th spot. OF-RHP Dexter McCleon Jr will be fixture on the Georgia All-Region team for the next two years but the top ranked prospect in the 2028 class will have to take a back seat to his elders this year. McCleon’s absurd...

Baseball Meets Hollywood For Great Cause

Jim Salisbury

BASEBALL MEETS HOLLYWOOD FOR A GREAT CAUSE There’s no crying in baseball, but there is laughing, and there was lots and lots of it -- for a great cause -- last Saturday night in Hollywood, California. Perfect Game and its Believe in Baseball Foundation assembled a star-studded cast of comics and guests for the inaugural “In the Spirit of the Game” dinner and auction. The event was held at the iconic Laugh Factory, a historic venue that, in baseball terms, would be equivalent to Dodger Stadium or Wrigley Field. Late-night superstar Jay Leno took a turn on stage. So did comedic aces Tiffany Haddish, Nikki Glaser, Dustin Ybarra and Gary Cannon. “It was 4 ½ hours of straight laughter,” said PG commissioner Dennis Gilbert, still beaming a couple of days later. “It was a really nice success.” No one kept score at the event, but...
