The state of Florida is loaded once again on the prep side, as the Jacksonville-based Callihan has an argument to be one of the top hitters in the class. He has a quick lefthanded swing with lots of strength in his 5-foot-11, 211-pound frame. Callihan routinely hits deep, towering fly balls in batting practice and also showed off his raw power during USA Baseball’s 18U trials, homering against an elevated 90 mph fastball. Defense will be the biggest question with the South Carolina commit. He has a chance to stick at third base, but plenty of work needs to be done in terms of improving his hands and footwork for the position.
