Grant Statler is a 2027 LHP/1B with a 5-11 155 lb. frame from Roscoe, IL who attends Hononegah. Features a medium-sized lean build. Ran a 7.33 60-yd dash. At 1B, showed confident and athletic actions both around the bag and on GBs. Attacks aggressively with a glove that also works through the baseball with sureness at reception. Arm also showed well working loose and with some quality strength and accuracy across. At the plate, sits in a medium base and uses a smaller leg lift trigger. Hands drop slightly into launch. Showed intent to each swing, flashing some above avg. bat/hand speed for his level but struggled to get extended along with minimal barrel feel/accuracy. Best results were some softer LDs he sprayed the other way during his round. On the mound, showed a balanced and repeatable operation. Side steps into a belt high leg lift that works straight up/down. Lands on-line with avg. length stride. Loose/continuous arm action that shows avg. armspeed to a normal 3/4 slot. Ran the FB up to an easy 84 that had some natural run/sink action to it and which he also showed solid command for. Mixed in a breaker with 2-8 shape in the upper 60s that flashes strong potential. Also threw a couple of low 70s CHs that had some decent fading action.
