For 2014 Draft - 6. Ti'quan Forbes, SS, Columbia HS (MS) - 6'4/175, R/R, Draft
Day Age: 17.78, Ole Miss commit, Full Report & Video - Quick Take: A
relative unknown a few months ago has captured scouts' imaginations as a super
projectable athlete that's the youngest of the top prospects in the class. He's
still slightly awkward at times, but has good pop already and collects hits in
bunches in games along with a chance to stick at shortstop due to his plus
speed, great actions and an above average arm.

8-14-13 – Through The Fence – Top
50 Prospects – 16. Ti’Quan Forbes, SS, Columbia HS (MS) - At 6’-4” and 180
pounds, the right-hander oozes potential due to his defensive abilities, strong
arm, plus speed (6.4/60) and developing raw power. He has shown a patient
approach at the plate, driving the ball to all fields, and his size suggests
more power will come. He hit .391/.447/.758 as a junior with only seven
strikeouts over 103 plate appearances. If teams believe he can stick at
shortstop, he could shoot up draft boards. http://throughthefencebaseball.com/2014-mlb-draft-top-50-prospects/36463#mwWwsFxSUZy7YC5V.99
8-13-13 - The
Perfect Game All-American Classic in San Diego - * It was my first look at
Ti’Quan Forbes (Columbia High School, Miss.) — who the scouts that I talk to
have raved about — and I get the appeal; he’s got good size (6’4″, 175) and he
looked good during infield with above-average speed and a strong arm. My issue
was with the swing, as he drops his hands fairly significantly and negates some
of the bat speed he generates. http://mlbdraftinsider.com/2013/08/thoughts-on-perfect-game-all-american-classic/?utm_source=twitterfeed&utm_medium=twitter
8-16-13 - 11th All-American
Classic - Ti’Quan Forbes (SS/OF, Columbia HS (Columbia, MS): Wiry, athletic
build with plenty of room to fill out; open stance; quick-twitch swing with bat
speed; some pre-load movement; line-drive stroke in game action; potential for
some power down the line; athleticism plays on defensive side; easy actions;
highly projectable at 6-foot-4, 177 pounds; very high ceiling, a lot to dream
on. —Chris Rodriguez http://www.baseballprospectus.com/article.php?articleid=21537

Dodgers: Ti’Quan Forbes, SS, Columbia HS (Miss.) - The youngest prospect in the
draft class, Ti'Quan Forbes, who scouts knew little to nothing about heading
into the summer, stands out for his impressive blend of athleticism and tools.
At 6’4”, 175 pounds, the Ole Miss commit has plenty of room to fill out and
should have plenty of strength at maturity. At the dish, Forbes, a right-handed
hitter, showcases above-average bat speed with some pop to the gaps and
utilizes his plus speed to leg out countless infield knocks. Meanwhile, at
shortstop, he projects to remain at the position long term with exceptional
range, smooth and fluid actions, and plenty of arm strength. http://bleacherreport.com/articles/1860341-2014-mlb-mock-draft-early-first-round-projections-for-all-30-teams/page/10

SS Ti’Quan Forbes Columbia HS (Ole Miss Commit) 8/26/96- He is a tall, lanky SS
in the mold of a young BJ Upton with the speed and coming power to support that
debate. He moves well on the diamond and has a chance to be one of the fastest
rising players in this June’s draft. (A’s @ 28) http://pinetarpress.com/early-look-2014-mlb-draft/
