Two-way 2027 talent has caught our eye repeatedly in the past. A ton of projection as a pitcher and hitter. Profile:

Tripp Kata (‘27 TX) was absolutely dominant across 5 shutout innings w/ 9Ks. FB was 84-87 T88 dotting the edges early in counts. SL was 73-77 w/ good bite & getting lots of whiffs. Showed a CH in the mid-70s w/ good fade & selling it well. #SouthElite @PG_Uncommitted

A few clips of Tripp Kata on the bump. The RHP had a solid start with a no-hitter working through 4 innings. Tough 5th led to some runs, but overall a lot of potential and kept his squad in the game. All around competitor and wasn’t afraid to go head to head with a good lineup.

‘27 RHP/SS Tripp Kata will be one to note. Son of former big leaguer Matt Kata (@MattK8A). Listed at 5-10, 140 lbs. Up to 85 MPH today in his start and really competed. Was through four scoreless, but had a rocky 5th. Tons of bright spots vs. a good lineup and should make jumps

Tripp Kata takes it himself on the ground ball up the middle and fires to first for the inning ending double play. #FiveToolDefense
