Draft Prospects
-
School: IMG Academy, Bradenton, Fla. Commit/Drafted: Alabama
Age At Draft: 18.9
Modugno is a physically imposing 6-foot-5, 215-pound slugger with some of the best raw power in the class. He was advanced physically as an underclassman and put on power displays in batting practice at IMG Academy in Bradenton, Fla., that weren’t all that far off then-teammate and eventual 2022 first-round pick Elijah Green. Modugno has outstanding strength and plus bat speed that creates tons of force and allows him to generate 100+ mph exit velocities with a wood bat. At Perfect Game’s National showcase, Modugno turned around 89 mph fastballs multiple times—once for a triple crushed to center field that came off the bat at 105 mph and a second time a low line drive that came off his barrel at 104 mph. Modugno was a productive hitter during the showcase circuit but he strikes out at a high clip and has below-average contact ability. While Modugno is large, he moves surprisingly well for his size and is an above-average runner underway. He also has double-plus arm strength and has been up to 97-98 mph on the mound. Modugno is committed to Alabama.
