Derek Rubin is a 2026 3B/SS with a 6-1 185 lb. frame from Jupiter, FL who attends The Benjamin School. Medium, athletic frame with square shoulders and some present strength, additional room to fill moving forward. Ran a 7.08 60-yard dash. Primary third baseman, shows a feel for footwork in the dirt, deliberate tempo to pace of actions, works with a longer arm action through the back to a higher release point, actions play well on a corner. Right-handed hitter, begins with a narrow base and a high hand set and back elbow at the plate. Rotational swing, can implement additional lower half moving into contact, stays tight with hand path through swing, can work to all fields and found some barrels in live action, can go the other way to right-center field gap. Excellent student.
