#29 Blayne Enlow (6-3, 180, RHP, R/R)

St. Amant (La.) HS has spawned four big leaguers -- Kim Batiste, Reid Brignac, Andy Sheets and Ben Sheets -- but has never had a player selected in the first round without attending college. Enlow entered the year with a chance to break through for the Gators, though he's more likely to go in the second round since his velocity has been down a bit this spring. After a strong summer on the showcase circuit, he didn't allow an earned run in 13 innings for the U.S. national 18-and-under team that won the gold medal at the Pan American Championships in October. Enlow might have the best breaking ball in the 2017 high school class, with low-80s power and 12-to-6 shape. He operated in the low 90s and hit 94 mph with his fastball early in games on the showcase circuit, though he has worked more at 88-92 mph as a senior and still has to show he can maintain his velocity in the later innings. That shouldn't be an issue once he fills out his oh-so-projectable 6-foot-4 frame. The headliner in a standout Louisiana State recruiting class, Enlow has a loose, quick arm and a relatively easy delivery. He already fills the strike zone, so the only items on his to-do list are to get stronger and develop a changeup he hasn't needed yet. He has the upside of a frontline starter.
