Power BBall SC Sh...Personal Statement
My name is Porter Dykes. I am 6’2” and 185 lbs. I have had a passion for baseball since I was 3 years old, and it still drives me to compete at a high level. From playing in All-Stars to finishing in the final 4 at Cooperstown, and competing for State Championships, winning is everything. I have played all positions my whole career. I played starting shortstop, #2 pitcher, and catcher this past year for Providence Christian School. My baseball knowledge is elite, and I have speed that separates me from other players. My drive is to play for a school that plays for championships and provides a strong academic degree. I am excited to show my baseball skills to potential colleges.

- C / RHP / PROVIDENCE CHRISTIAN, AL / 2024 Uncommitted. 6-foot-2, 185-pounds. Athletic build with tons of strength proportionally to the frame. We mentioned in our event preview article how Dykes was a do-it-all type prospect and he certainly showcased that two-way ability with strong showings on both sides of the ball at yesterday’s event. A bit of a relative unknown state-wide, the uncommitted senior is definitely one for college coaches to get acclimated with. Hitting from the right side of the plate, he’s got a short, compact stroke that delivers firm contact gap-to-gap within his approach; registered low-90 EV’s during his round of BP. Clocked an event-best 60 YD time of 6.74, and showcased solid catch-and-throw skills from the crouch with 1.88-2.00 pop times with a 76 mph C velocity. On the mound, the right-hander is equally as intriguing using a short, compact arm action from a H ¾ arm slot. He operated 84-85 mph (2400 rpm) and touched 85.6 mph with some occasional cut and ride to the offering, and tunneled a sharp slider at 74-77 mph off of it that registered spin rates north of 2500 rpm. Also flashed a solid changeup at 75-77 mph with good fade to it as a quality third offering to his repertoire. Really athletic two-way prospect that should not be on the board for too much longer.
