1. Matt Manning (RHP) ... 6-3, 185 ... 19 ... 2016 (1) HS (CA)

Comments: Tall, very athletic SP with mammoth upside predicated on arm speed, projection, and potential plus CB. FB can be unhittable due to velocity and angle to plate. Commands FB well for age. Hard CB could develop into dynamite offering and needs time to polish throwing motion. CU could evolve into third average to plus pitch in time.
