https://www.prospects1500.com/general/2023-mlb-draft-top-50-high-school-prospects/
27. Raffaele Velazquez, C/1B, Huntington Beach HS (CA) – Better known as Ralphy, the current catcher will probably end up at first base, but the arm is very accurate and could help him stay behind the dish longer than some may think. Regardless of where he plays, there is one big piece to his game it takes no time to discover, dude has power! The ball absolutely flies off the bat and has plus plus power potential from a left handed swing that has a good low hand load and real bat speed. He has a knack for finding the barrel so the are Ks in the bat, but not as much as you expect from a your power hitter. He will get greedy at times and pull off the ball, but he typically stays closed and mashes.

Michael Perazza
Max Clark
Zion Rose

Huntington Beach C/OF Raffaele "Ralphy" Velazquez was the most unlucky prospect in baseball this summer. In 58 PAs, Valazquez slashed .160/.310/.229 w/a 5% K-rate, an 84% Contact%, and a 15.5% BB%. Hits the ball as hard as anyone too. Kid rakes. No. 91 overall at Prospects Live. https://t.co/8eZnjDTnFz
