2024 National Underclass Showcase-Main Event
Caelan Vernon is a 2027 LHP/1B/OF with a 5-8 165 lb. frame from Cobbtown, GA who attends Metter. Medium, compact frame with some present athleticism and developing strength. Primary left-handed pitcher, utilizes a hybrid delivery from the first base side of the rubber with a stationary step in front before transitioning to a balance point. Lifts the front leg up to the chest with a slight coil before separating into an inline arm path. Accelerates into a three-quarters arm angle and finishes over his front-side. Fastball was located well to the glove-side, ultimately peaking at 83 mph with spin nearing 2300 rpm. Mixed in an upper-60s curveball with good depth and a developing spin profile. Flashed a changeup with some tumbling action. Secondary outfielder, gets a good first step on the baseball and works through it at a deliberate pace. Fields it out in front and carries some momentum into release. Made clean exchanges and accurate throws while recording arm strength up to 82 mph from the outfield. Right-handed hitter, starts in a wide stance with a tight hand set-up. Utilizes a short stride for timing before working into an uphill bat path. Sinks deep into his back-side and collapses at the point of contact. Has some present hand speed with a developing feel for the barrel. Showcased the ability to work all parts of the field. Projects for more power with additional strength and mechanical refinement. Posted an exit velocity of 83 mph. Ran a 7.28 sixty-yard dash. Excellent student.
