#200 Nick Storz (6-6, 242, RHP, R/R)
Over the summer, Storz created buzz with his power at the plate, competing in the Junior Home Run Derby in San Diego during All-Star festivities. But teams interested in the standout from Poly Prep, the same high school 2016 Draft prospect Daniel Bakst attended, are more interested in his 6-foot-6 frame on the mound. It was a little tricky evaluating Storz this spring, between living in a cold-weather area in New York City and a minor shoulder issue that kept him off the mound for a while. But he returned late in the spring and showed some of the stuff that interested scouts in the first place. Storz has a fastball that he can get up to 95 mph, though he showed more of that over the summer, and sits comfortably in the 90-92 mph range. He struggles with repeating his delivery and his arm slot, which impacts his command. Storz's velocity would fluctuate, but he'd also show enough left in the tank to touch 93 mph late in games. Storz has a good feel for a slider, and it could be at least a Major League average offering. He doesn't have much of a changeup. Storz has a strong commitment to LSU and could very easily follow the footsteps of his teammate Bakst, who went on to Stanford. Already 19, he would be a Draft-eligible sophomore in two years.

NR Mason Doolittle (6-4, 210, C, R/R)
Strong and well-built, Doolittle has noticeable raw talent. His power and ability to drive balls to all fields come from a sturdy lower half. Behind the plate, the catcher has an average arm. He is still developing defensively but his athletic instincts are keen and he has a playable bat at a premium position. Doolittle attended MLB's Prospect Development Pipeline premier event in Bradenton, Fla., in January.
