Zac Veen OF, HS. B-L, T-R. 6'4", 180 lbs.
Tall and lanky but well proportioned with athletic movements and a smooth swing. Strong arm. Clocked at just 83 MPH off the mound but 92 from the OF. I was not able to find a 60 yd dash time, but Fangraphs capsule scouting report calls him a "protoype CF prospect" so presumably he has some pretty serious speed. The comp that immediately came to my mind when seeing him on video is Christian Yelich. A lot of players with his build look awkward in the batter's box, but he looks very comfortable with a slightly open stance which helps him avoid getting tied up on the inside. Claim to fame in competition is a a dinger off a 96 MPH FB from 2019 first rounder Matthew Allan. When you are scouting HS players, it's all about the ceiling and this kid's is as high as any.
