Advanced Swing Mechanics from #Chipola ‘26 SS/CF @DevKendall23 17U Nation

In order of sequence

•Top hand rhythmically connects w/ back shoulder
•Loads INWARD with core, elbows, back. Maximizes connection, allows entire backside 2 turn barrel
•Loading inward keeps him inside ⚾️ and allows him to hit the inside of baseball, creating optimal backspin for carry
•Slow coil @ pace of stride lends him right center direction at toe touch. Staple for staying “on” the ⚾️
•Hands take over last 1/4 of swing
•Top hand palm ✋🆙 thru contact

The undeniable talent, top of scale athleticism are so loud it’s easy to miss his advanced traits. Swing 1 shows ideal right center swing direction matching a “sit outer half, react inside” approach that is atypical for any HS draft prospect, much less one considered raw. Choosing to go oppo on a middle FB is discipline. With adjustability 2 turn in tight space, current A/AVG bat speed & plus twitch well b4 physical ceiling, he has/will have similar success on the inner half vs velo.

Continues to grow on MLB clubs with effortless fast twitch fibers, pro actions, and top of scale run tool. At 6’3 175 w/ sprinter’s build, he’s hard to miss pre game. Rhythm, body control, timing come naturally on both offensive & defensive sides of the ball. Produced 3 EV’s 95+ in 2 games at LP, and elite steal times in 3.15 - 3.17 range. #mlbdraft #TheBrand

6’3 175. Top of scale run (3.92 bunt, 3.99-4.01) w/ pro actions & lightning twitch in box make him the most athletic 2026 draft prospect in a top 5 MLB player producing state (GA). Standout ease of effort & body balance in all facets. Near plus bat speed well before physical ceiling. 1st step quickness and lengthy gliding strides will allow top of scale run to play true on basepaths. Could be special defender in CF. Natural reads, standout range, and rare footwork at SS w/ future AVG arm. Turns 18 just days b4 draft.

This is a potential plus defender in CF for me with future A/AVG or better defense at 2B the backup plan (if arm ends up light for SS). Outside of elite athleticism - his spin recognition, ability to ctrl effort, rhythm+timing, and feel 2 waste pitches lead me to believe it’s an AVG hit tool down the line. The fact he’s played much less high level baseball compared to other GA ‘26 prospects should not be held against him, it’s a positive for his ceiling as a hitter and overall. This caliber of athlete will fly past peers when seasoned vs quality arms. Prototype CF/SS frame w/ future top of scale bat speed as he physically matures should bring easy 6 raw power.

2026 SS Devin Kendall comes through with a clutch swing late to extend the lead.

Stays well-balanced with siginificant bat speed and feel for the barrel as he shoots this into RF for the 2 RBI knock.

Abundance of twitch and athleticism in the wiry 6-foot-3 frame.
