Kaden(KT) Thompson is a 2025 OF/RHP/1B with a 6-2 190 lb. frame from Flowery Branch, GA who attends Cherokee Bluff. Strong and physical build with room to get even stronger. 6.80 runner in the sixty. Primary outfielder on defense, has a good idea on his footwork and comes through the ball aggressively, quick and compact arm action, gets good carry on his throws and makes accurate throws. Also worked out at first base and was very athletic for this position. Left handed hitter, hits from a balanced start with a hanging front leg load, busy hand action, lots going on pre-swing, has good hand speed and strength at contact, best when he's pulling the ball and getting out front, will continue to improve offensively as he gets more repetitions. Very good student.
