Alexia Gurtler proved to be one of the most dynamic two-way athletes in the 2031 class this summer, making an impact with her arm, bat, and speed. Playing for Athletics Mercado 2031 Gold Wicks, the lefthander was highly effective in the circle, recording 17 strikeouts while limiting opponents to a .182 batting average and posting a 1.25 WHIP. At the plate, she hit .583 with four RBI and three stolen bases, using her elite speed to consistently pressure opposing defenses. She also brings versatility by excelling in center field when she is not pitching, giving her team another dependable defender in the outfield. Gurtler continues to invest in her development, reaching a personal best of 61 mph in June, which is a testament to the work she puts in.
