Snyder is a 6-foot-2, 197-pound shortstop who is one of the more athletic players in the 2024 class and has shown impressive skills on both sides of the ball. He has fast hands and a quick swing that could lead to an average hit tool. Snyder has also gained strength over the last 18 months or so with flashes of average raw power that could tick up as he continues to fill out. At the moment, his swing is more conducive to line drives and ground balls which pairs nicely with his impressive in-zone contact skills. He can be overly aggressive with his swing decisions however and might need to tighten up his plate discipline as he faces more advanced pitching. Snyder was one of the most impressive defenders at the 2023 Area Code Games where he showed quick reactions off the bat, good angles to the ball, solid-average arm strength and an ability to throw on the run with accuracy. He has all the tools to be a solid or better defender at shortstop, though some scouts think he might get too physical as he ages and will need to slide over to third base. He’s committed to Tennessee.

A plus runner with a quick first step, Snyder is one of the most athletic players in the 2024 class. A 6-foot-2, 197-pound righthanded hitter, Snyder has fast hands and a quick swing. As he has packed more strength onto his frame over the past year, he has started to show flashes of average raw power. His swing is more conducive to hitting line drives and grounders, so there’s more untapped power potential if he’s able to drive the ball in the air more consistently. When Snyder swings at pitches in the strike zone, he has little swing-and-miss, though he is an aggressive hitter who will need to tighten his plate discipline. In the field, Snyder has quick reactions off the bat, takes good angles to the ball and has the arm strength for shortstop with comfort throwing on the run. He was one of the most impressive defenders at the 2023 Area Code Games. Snyder is committed to Tennessee.
