Gavin Turley - Prospect Profile

MLB.com - July 1st: "He might have as much raw power as anyone in this Draft class, with some scouts hanging a 70 on it. He can drive the ball for extra bases anywhere with prodigious home run pop thanks to outstanding bat speed, and he was showing more ability to hit the ball out the other way this spring."

Keith Law - The Athletic - July 1st: "He hits the ball extremely hard when he does make contact, however, with a 90th percentile exit velocity of 108.4 mph and a hard-hit rate of 61 percent, the latter number ranking in the top 1 percent of all qualifying D1 hitters. It’s just all or nothing — he makes very loud contact or he makes no contact at all."

Baseball America - June 25th: "In three years with the Beavers, Turley has been a consistent source of power, with at least 14 home runs and a 1.000 OPS in each season, though that power has come with swing-and-miss tendencies. Turley has an explosive operation in the box with great bat speed, while his leveraged, uphill bat path leads to monstrous home runs to his pull side."

Tyler Jennings - Just Baseball - March 24th: "It’s extremely loud bat speed and pull-side juice with leverage and loft, tapping into it easily in-game already. His hips open explosively thanks to his twitchy nature, which allows him to possess these kinds of tools at the plate."
