TOP TOOLS
 
Listed below are the players from this event who our scouts felt best fit into each category. There is no set number we try and reach for each category, and in some cases we may not even list all of the tools – it all depends on what the players show us at the event.
 
60 yard dash times will be listed in order from lowest to highest and fastball velocities will be listed in order from highest to lowest. All other categories will be listed in alphabetical order.

The Top Tools were selected by Dan Mooney (Assistant Director of Scouting).
