PJ Morlando - Prospect Profile

Jonathan Mayo - MLB.com - July 18th: "The winner of the High School Home Run Derby that took place in Seattle during All-Star festivities, Morlando has a simple setup at the plate and makes loud contact, with some of the best raw power at the plate and the discipline to tap into it."

Tyler Jennings - Prospects Live - July 13th: "There’s a ton of bat speed in this profile and he’s already pretty physical, which gives him a ton of power potential. He’s already been hitting second-deck tanks in batting practice at big league stadiums this summer."

Joe Doyle - Future Star Series - July 12th: "He’s a first baseman by trade, but has gotten some run in the outfield and could be serviceable in left field."

Joe Doyle - Future Star Series - April 20th: "Morlando might be the most physically imposing high school bat in the 2024 class with exceptional bat speed and high contact rates to boot. Morlando has long had the bat speed to out-slug his peers, but it's his mature approach and willingness to take the walk that has scouts raising eyebrows."
