    Does the drafting began at noon or just the coverage?

    Wendell Marrero is a 2019 OF/1B with a 6-2 195 lb. frame from Dorado, PR who attends Puerto Rico BB Academy. Big and tall build with plenty of present strength. 6.88 runner, young footwork in the outfield, plenty of raw arm strength with a good arm action, would be interesting to see on the mound. Left handed hitter, upper body swing with a limited lower half shift, deep hand load with a wrapped barrel, short hands to the ball, can get better extension through contact, plenty of power potential there with adjustments.

    Yan Contreras, Shortstop, Dr. Carlos Gonzalez HS (Puerto Rico)

    Scouts flock to the Excellence Tournament in Puerto Rico every year to get the chance to see the top talent the island has to offer prior to the Draft. Contreras, a middle infielder with some present hitting skills, was the only player to hit homer in this year's event. Big and strong, Contreras has more present strength than some of his fellow Puerto Rican infielders in the class. When he keeps his swing under control, he can drive the ball. He has serious raw power, especially to the pull side, but has the tendency to lose his mechanics and get out of control trying to show off that power. A solid runner when underway, there is some question over whether he has the range to stick at shortstop, though most teams would send him out at the spot and see if he can stick there. He has a plus arm and good enough hands for the position. If Contreras does slow down as he matures, he still has a future on the dirt, perhaps as an offensive second baseman. Some scouts think he'll hit enough to profile at third base, reminding some of an Asdrubal Cabrera type. He'll head to San Jacinto Junior College if the Draft doesn't work out for him.

    Contreras was #310 on Baseball America's top 500, and rated by them as the 4th best prospect out of Puerto Rico. They say he has the arm to stick at short.

    Luke Berryhill, catcher, University of South Carolina

    http://www.thebaseballcube.com/playe....asp?ID=206072

    Berryhill originally attended Georgia Southern, though he transferred to Walters State after injuries limited him to just three games in his freshman season. He helped lead Walters State to a 60-8 record and a berth in the 2018 NJCAA World Series before landing at South Carolina this season. Berryhill has raw power at the plate, and has average receiving skills behind the plate. He has demonstrated better arm strentgh in the past, though he may profile better as a first baseman moving forward.
    Apparently a budding country singer too.
