School: Louisville
Forbes logged just 9.1 innings during the spring, but had a nice summer on the Cape, in which he pitched his way to a 2.60 ERA with 20 strikeouts across 17.1 innings. He has a promising fastball-curveball duo, and his curveball has plus potential. Forbes moves well on the mound and this fall was up to 96. As a hitter, he has above-average power. -

Age At Draft: 18
Kentucky’s Mr. Baseball in 2022, Forbes hit .583 with 15 home runs this year. He dominated the competition around Bowling Green, but Bowling Green isn’t an area known for producing draftable high school players (Corey Hart is the only player from a Bowling Green high school to make it to the majors after being drafted and signing out of high school). Forbes has plus raw power, but there are more questions about his hitting ability. He has a promising swing, but he hasn’t seen much high-caliber pitching. A high school shortstop, Forbes projects as a pro third baseman with an above-average arm. Forbes is a Louisville signee. While there are teams that view him as an intriguing day two pick, others are more willing to let him face more advanced competition in the ACC and then happily pay him down the road if he proves he can pass that test.
