EVENT SCHEDULE | STAFF | FAQ | SHOP
The 2025 New Balance Future Stars Main Event went down at Globe Life Field from October 3 to 5. It was fire. Draft and SEC-quality arms showed out, and bats were up to the task and then some.
Here are hitters who stood out from a data standpoint.
Note: Main Event rosters are almost exclusively from the class of 2026. Players below are from ’26 unless otherwise noted.
John Cade Zeigler, 3B/RHP — Riverfield Academy (La.)
Avg EV: 89.5 mph
Max EV: 102.0 mph
Zeigler posted three exit velos over 100 mph, two more over 93 mph, and another two over 90 mph. It’s simply what he does.
For a power bat, he did a good job controlling the zone, chasing just twice all weekend on 27 pitches and 14 swings.
Easton Autrey, 3B/1B — Corsicana HS (Tex.)
Avg EV: 94.5 mph
Max EV: 106.1 mph
Three over 100 mph, two over 105 mph, including a HR. Five came off the bat over 95 mph, eight over 90 mph.
Autrey’s hard contact and 28.5-degree average launch angle produced six line drives out of nine batted ball events at Globe Life Field. His swing consistency is outstanding — all 10 of his batted balls generated a launch angle between 13.2 and 36.2.
Jeremiah Bibby, CF/RHP — East Nashville HS (Tenn.)
Avg EV: 82.6 mph
Max EV: 95.6 mph
Bibby is a 6-foot-4, 175-pound switch hitter with bat speed, physical projection, and some pitching ability, but the bat is awfully intriguing long-term with data like this.
He generates natural loft and has improved since the summer with his attack angle, producing more line drives and fly balls this time around.
Jack Brenner, C — Fond du Lac HS (Wis.)
Avg EV: 86.1 mph
Max EV: 101.5
Three balls at 99 mph or higher, four 93 mph or higher, just one swing-and-miss on 10 qualified swings. He’s learning to generate loft and produce more line drives, and didn’t chase once over the weekend.
Oh, and he can run, too, showing live home-to-first times in the low fours.
Landon Brown, 3B/RHP — Iowa Colony HS (Tex.)
Avg EV: 93.1 mph
Max EV: 106.1 mph
Brown posted three batted balls over 100 mph, two over 105 mph, and six over 90 mph. We all know he can pitch, but the kid’s a legit two-way talent, and can send line drives to any part of the field.
Marcus Cantu, SS/2B — Lutheran South Academy (Tex.)
Avg EV: 86.4 mph
Max EV: 103.1 mph
Cantu found the barrel at 97 mph or better five times over the weekend, including to the opposite field. Nine of his 13 batted balls were line drives. It was an impressive weekend for the middle infielder, who chased just once on 11 swings.
Graham Charboneau, RF/1B — Kingwood High School (Tex.)
Avg EV: 89.9 mph
Max EV: 104.3 mph
Charboneau hit triple digits twice, 98 mph or better four times, and seven times posted an exit velo of over 90 mph. On 13 batted ball events and 21 swings, Charboneau chased just three times.
Logan D’Amico, RF/RHP — Marvin Ridge HS (N.C.)
Avg EV: 92.2 mph
Max EV: 104.5 mph
D’Amico, who can also hit the mid-90s from the mound, peppered the opposite field with authority, but showed pull-side power too, posting exit velos at 90 mph or higher to both sides of the field.
David Dagnino, SS/2B — Euless Trinity HS (Tex.)
Avg EV: 88.5 mph
Max EV: 97.5 mph
Dagnino’s contact was consistently solid, backing up his BP rounds, touching 90 mph or higher four times in live games. He used the middle of the field well and expanded the zone just once on 11 swings.
Jace Dardar, 2B/SS — Georgia Premier Academy
Avg EV: 86.3 mph
Max EV: 97.1 mph
The consistent, solid contact from Dardar isn’t new, but he found good wood on several balls in this event, touching 90 mph or better five times.
Dardar consistently drove pitches to center and right field.
Christian-Rey Olivares, C/LF — London HS (Tex.)
Avg EV: 90.3 mph
Max EV: 101.9 mph
Olivares, a USC commit, showed mettle versus good arms and produced yet again, backed up by his four batted balls over 95 mph.
Christian Doty, SS/CF — Magnolia Heights HS (Miss.)
Avg EV: 91.2 mph
Max EV: 101.3 mph
Doty posted six batted balls over 90 mph, three at 99 mph or higher, and two to the backside at 87.8 and 94.1 mph. He chased but twice on 12 swings, and neither resulted in a swing-and-miss. Doty is committed to Ole Miss.
Jaylen Walker, RF/CF — Lutheran South Academy (Tex.)
Avg EV: 87.4 mph
Max EV: 106.3 mph
Walker hit triple digits twice and added one at 98 mph for good measure. It’s a middle-away attack plan, and he didn’t chase once in 11 swings.
Tommy Georgelos, CF/2B — Lyons Township HS (Ill.)
Avg EV: 89.7 mph
Max EV: 99.6 mph
Georgelos pasted three balls over 95 mph off the bat, two over 99 — including one to the opposite field. There were no chases registered for Georgelos on eight qualified swings.
Cam Jackson, SS/2B — Georgia Premier Academy
Avg EV: 91 mph
Max EV: 96.9 mph
Jackson topped 95 mph three times in the weekend event and posted exit velos of 93 or better five times. He didn’t chase at all on 15 swings, and seven of his eight batted ball events resulted in exit velocities over 87 mph.
Jackson is headed to Oklahoma next fall if he chooses not to sign after next July’s Draft.
Tai Jones, CF/RHP — Jackson Academy (Miss.)
Avg EV: 85.4 mph
Max EV: 104.0 mph
Jones hit 100 or better twice and added a third over 95 mph. He limited the chase to twice on 17 swings. Just two of his balls in play came off the bat under 85 mph.
Keaton Mathis, C/RF — Valley View HS (Ark.)
Avg EV: 90.4 mph
Max EV: 97.8 mph
There were four balls at 95 or better in Mathis’ ledger for the weekend, two more at 89 mph and nothing under 80. Mathis’ contact skills were on display, registering the same number of swings-and-misses as you and I did that weekend.
Devin Miller, SS/ 2B — Magnolia Heights HS (Miss.)
Avg EV: 90.3 mph
Max EV: 98.1 mph
Miller got to some solid fastball velocity and served it back at even higher velos, hitting 90 mph or better on three of five batted balls, and touching 95 mph or higher twice. He chased once on 14 swings.
Drayton Mitchell, CF/LHP — Calallen HS (Tex.)
Avg EV: 100,3 mph
Max EV: 109.6 mph
Mitchell had the hardest hit ball in play of the entire event at 109.6 mph, and added four more over 95 mph, including a second over 100.
Logan Our, CF/LHP — St. John Paul II School (Mass.)
Avg EV: 93.4 mph
Max EV: 98.4 mph
His BP impressed, and in games, Our displayed barrel awareness and bat speed. He reached 89 mph or higher five times on seven batted balls. His weakest contact flashed at 86.4 mph and 89 mph over the whole weekend.
Cole Prosek, 3B/2B — Magnolia Heights HS (Miss.)
Avg EV: 91.1 mph
Max EV: 102.9 mph
Prosek consistently finds the barrel with good bat speed and generates high exit velocities, including the 103 mph mark on his home run. He didn’t chase, handled velocity, and punished breaking balls.
Jason Saez-Medina, CF/1B — Puerto Rico Baseball Academy
Avg EV: 88.6 mph
Max EV: 104.2 mph
Saez-Medina posted two batted balls over 100 mph, one at 99 mph and three more in the mid-80s. Not a single chase or swinging strike all weekend, either.
