‘26 RHP Ty Van Valkenburg (NY) 6’4” 205. Projection FB 88-91 (92) 👍📈 SL 77-79 CH 79 In this outing Valkenburg lacked control. He did show poise through this. Interesting arm for next years draft. No. 1️⃣ ranked player in NY. @ShooterHunt

#Miami commit Tyler Van Valkenburg (‘26, NY) smokes this ball back up the middle into CF on a run-scoring 1B. The 6-foot-4 lefty uses an easy approach at the plate to drive this ball with easy pop. The no. 6 overall player in the state. #MAElite @PG_Scouting
