Maddox Sedlacek | OF/RHP | Class of 2027 | Uncommitted
6-foot-3, 217 lbs (Prep Baseball Verified)
When the best amateur players in the country convene at the Roger Dean Chevrolet Stadium Complex in Jupiter, Florida, for the 28th annual 18U WWBA World Championship (Oct. 8–12, 2026), one of the most physical bats in the West will be in the box. Top Tier Las Vegas outfielder Maddox Sedlacek — an uncommitted 2027 corner outfielder and right-handed pitcher out of Ely, Nevada — arrives at the sport’s premier scouting event, where 700-plus MLB scouts and college coaches line the fences, with a résumé that has grown louder every month of 2026.
Sedlacek is a small-town product, but there is nothing small about his game. Over the course of this year he has done the one thing that travels to any ballpark in the country: he hits the baseball as hard as anyone in his class.
A Breakout Winter Set the Tone
The Sedlacek surge became impossible to ignore back in January. At the Prep Baseball Preseason ID at Centennial High School — roughly 50 of the top players in the Las Vegas area in attendance — Sedlacek led the entire field in nearly every major offensive metric, topping the event in max exit velocity, average exit velocity, average batted-ball distance, hard-hit rate, hand speed, and bat speed. No hitter at the event impacted the ball with more authority.
Prep Baseball West Coast Supervisor Brett Harrison took notice, calling him “the most physical player at the event” and pointing to “an elite power tool” in a game “shifting to a power and speed style of play.” Harrison’s takeaway: the verified 6-3, 217 junior “can change a game with a single swing.”
The Raw Power Kept Climbing
By spring, the data caught up to the eye test — and then passed it. At Prep Baseball’s Top Prospects event in May at the College of Southern Nevada, Sedlacek blasted a 111.9 mph home run and registered multiple 110-plus mph exit velocities during his batting-practice round, while showing an 88 mph outfield arm. That 111.9 mph peak stands as one of the loudest raw-power readings in Nevada’s 2027 class.
His current Prep Baseball measurables tell the story of a bat that plays at the top of any showcase:
- Max Exit Velocity: 111.9 mph
- Avg Exit Velocity: 99.6 mph
- Max Distance: 424 ft
- Bat Speed: 81.9 mph
- Hand Speed: 25.7 mph
- Rotational Acceleration: 21.8
- Outfield Velocity: 88 mph
- 60-Yard Dash: 7.03
Production to Match the Tools
The metrics are elite, but Sedlacek’s 2026 was a season of production, not just a testing profile.
Spring — White Pine High School: Sedlacek slashed .545/.595 and posted a monster stat line across 84 plate appearances: 36 hits, 7 home runs, 10 doubles, 2 triples, 50 RBI, and 33 runs scored, walking 14 times against just 9 strikeouts. He was one of the most productive hitters in the state, driving in a run in bunches for the Bobcats.
Summer — Top Tier Las Vegas: Sedlacek carried the momentum straight into the travel season and got even hotter, slashing .517/.544/1.241/1.785 with 15 home runs, 4 doubles, 1 triple, 36 RBI, and 26 runs scored. A 1.241 slugging percentage over a full summer is the kind of number that turns a good prospect into a must-see at-bat — and it earned him a place among Top Tier’s most-watched hitters heading into the fall.
A Fall of Big Stages
Jupiter is the marquee stop, but it is not the only one. Sedlacek was also one of three Top Tier Las Vegas players selected to Prep Baseball’s 2026 West Coast Games (Oct. 2–4 at the University of Utah, BYU, and Utah Valley University), joining teammates Antonio Whitney and Soren Savarda at one of the premier showcase events in the country. Since 2021, more than 560 players have committed to college programs following the West Coast Games — and Sedlacek will roll straight from Utah into Florida for the biggest audience of his career.
The Bottom Line for Scouts
Sedlacek is a right-handed corner-outfield bat with present, plus-plus raw power — a 111.9 mph peak EV, a near-100 mph average EV, and 400-plus-foot distance that shows up in games, not just in a cage. He backs the tools with elite bat-to-ball impact metrics (top-of-class hand speed and rotational acceleration) and a track record of production at both the high school and travel levels in 2026. Add an accurate 88 mph outfield arm and an improving run tool, and you have a physical, uncommitted 2027 who can change a game with one swing.
At Jupiter, in front of the largest gathering of scouts and coaches in amateur baseball, that swing will have its biggest stage yet.
