Jake Holmes

As a sophomore in 2015, Holmes has involved in an auto accident that sidelined him with head injuries. He's recovered and emerged as one of Arizona's top preps. He is committed to Arizona State as a shortstop, which he plays at Pinnacle, and his athleticism may be his best attribute. He flashes above-average arm strength and plus speed (4.2 seconds to first from the right side), and continued to get better during the spring as he added strength to his rangy 6-foot-3, 195-pound frame. Holmes showed offensive aptitude throughout the spring, becoming a key run producer as Pinnacle reached the state championship. Holmes' bat and athleticism had him moving up draft boards as the draft approached.
