2024 14U Texas All-State Games (Invite Only)
Jake Rabe is a 2028 3B/RHP, UT with a 6-1 160 lb. frame from Houston, TX who attends Second Baptist. Longer, lean frame with a lot of room to add more physicality with time. Ran the 60 yard dash in 7.65 seconds. Primary position infielder, working deliberately through his reps with emerging footwork and quickness. Flashed some good glove work and looked comfortable on the backhand. Gets under the ball a bit with shorter arm action creating throws up to 73 mph across the diamond. Secondary RHP, with projectable actions here, getting down the mound well after establishing good balance point. Synched up mechanics and attacked hitters with his fastball up to 75 mph that profiles as a plus pitch down the line. Developing breaking ball with two-plane shape in the low-60s that still needs some time. RHH working from a narrow upright initial stance, good handset and barrel flat over shoulder pre-pitch. Some wrap at the top with barrel before getting into the slot with some length to impact. Downhill path to the ball for the most part but did show the ability to get on plane later in the round. Real leverage capable here and it played when he got the ball in the air. Young athlete with two-way skills who is an outstanding student.
