School: Maranatha HS, Pasadena, Calif. Drafted/Committed: Oregon State
Age At Draft: 18.6
Proctor is an imposing 6-foot-5, 225-pound righthanded slugger. He’s an aggressive hitter who has some of the best raw power in the class. Proctor has the strength, bat speed and leverage in his swing to develop into a 25-plus home run threat. Unlike many young hitters his size, Proctor generates that power while keeping his swing fairly compact, helping him tap into that power and perform well in games. He employs a standard leg lift and stride and has done a nice job letting the ball travel and keeping his hands back with a knack for striking the ball with impact. He was a bit trigger-happy on the 2024 showcase circuit and might need to become a bit more selective against better pitching. Proctor is a below-average runner who is a no-doubt corner profile in the long run, but has a chance for third base with average arm strength. If the infield doesn’t work out, he moves around well enough to handle an outfield corner. Proctor is committed to Oregon State. -

Unlike many young hitters his size, Proctor generates that power while keeping his swing fairly compact, helping him tap into that power and perform well in games. Proctor has played shortstop but he should slide quickly to third base at the next level thanks to below-average speed and average arm strength. He could profile best in an outfield corner.
