2022 13U National Showcase
Eli Daniel is a 2027 3B/UT with a 6-0 165 lb. frame from Caldwell, ID who attends Vallivue. He's got a bigger build overall, especially in the lower half. Ran an 8.27 60-yard dash. The primary third baseman was able to make firm throws across the infield during his infield round, getting to the ball, and making a play on it with some strength behind the throws. Right-handed hitter. He's got a hover leg lift and then uses a toe-tap to get on time with the ball. He stays short to the ball and is direct to it, working with the hands already set high, allowing him to get the barrel to the ball and lift it. The swing used his larger build in the box to get some strength behind it. Also made an appearance on the mound, showing a longer arm action from a high three-quarters arm slot. His fastball was IP to 77 mph and holding in the low- to mid-70s. He showed a feel for a breaking ball, but mostly used the fastball, getting good plane on the pitch. Good student.
