Top 50 Baseball Players of 2022 – #26 – Ethan Larson

Whatcom Preps Analysis:

Another personal favorite of mine to watch. An attacking, aggressive hitter at the plate that barrels the ball up more than most. Had a number of lineouts that hurt his overall numbers. A natural at the plate and in the field. Covered a ton of ground in the outfield as well. It feels like he has an extremely high ceiling, and is the kind of player that teammates can lean on. He led his team in runs batted in, and was second on the team in runs scored, hits, doubles, stolen bases and batting average.

Coach’s Comment:

“Ethan Larson was kind of our emotional center as a team and was as close to a sure thing as we had defensively. If he gets just a little more consistent at the plate he will scare teams next year.”

– Mount Baker Coach McHenry Pattison
