33. AJ Ewing, SS, Springboro HS (OH) – Ewing has a good chance to stick at short as he has a good glove, enough range, and enough arm to be an average defender there. At the plate, the hit tool will be what carries him as he has a smooth swing with good balance and timing despite a healthy leg kick. 

He has very good bat control and speed to go with a good eye at the plate that allows him to barrel up the ball with frequency and displays more pop than the body suggests. He does have a knack for pulling his head off the ball which is just a mild concern but something worth keeping an eye on.

2B/SS AJ Ewing, Springboro (OH), 2023 

Performance: 6-22, 1 2B, 5 BB, 7 K, 2 SB, .732 OPS 

Commitment: Alabama 

After disappointing showings at both WWBA 17U and East Coast Pro, it was great to see AJ Ewing get a good performance under his belt at Jupiter. The prep shortstop from Ohio showed an ability to grind at bats and drive the ball with authority to his pull side, and reaffirmed confidence that he has the overall toolset to merit Day 1 draft consideration.

60 SS

AJ Ewing

Springboro

Sweet swing from the left side, has added some muscle that's helped him drive balls around the yard. Capable up the middle defender with enough bounce and arm strength to play at shortstop. Advanced hitter that's performed against higher levels of competition, could really climb boards quickly if the physical tools take a step forward.

 

10-7-22 - Ian Smith @FlaSmitty 

Really smooth cut here from 2023 SS AJ Ewing. 

Above-average hit tool that creates easy loft and shows big-time bat speed. Alabama commit.
