Coming off a strong sophomore season in 2023, Velazquez generated more attention that built throughout the year. He generates impressive bat speed from the left side, already flashing over-the-fence power to the pull side now. His combination of bat speed and physical projection remaining give him a chance to develop into a power-hitting infielder once he’s able to add more strength and consistently incorporate his lower half into his swing. He will still be 17 on draft day, so he’s one of the younger players in the class.
