From the first look at his social media and other connections, it would be impossible to witness the blood and sweat he dedicates to the passion. Landon trains like a full professional, prioritising his detailed training routine. Yet, he finds time to brand himself in remarkable fashion.

The compassionate community builder loves to be in touch with his growing fanbase on social media. He knows the value of connecting with people and keeping things authentic. Perhaps this is the reason big companies like Body Armour have acknowledged him at his age. 

A Rising Sports Star

Landon’s gameplay is quite identical to Trevor Bauer’s, who he modelled his game after. But of course, he doesn’t follow it blatantly. The baseball prodigy is developing and discovering his own tricks and strengths as he infuses his personality in each game. 

A glance at his record would more than qualify him to be in the MLB as a professional. The prodigy has managed to achieve outstanding performance which is increasing each day. 

Currently, he has a fastball average of almost 80 miles per hour. You can see him throw a curveball at 73mph. 74 position and 87 exit velocity could give any average pro player a run for the money. The highly agile persona also holds POP at 2 seconds with Home to 1st base in a little over 4 seconds.  

The duality between the full time professional and the charismatic and available social media Landon Bonneville open plenty of opportunities. MLB-stars like David Wright and Michael Cuddyer acknowledge the raw potential the youth have. 

If the young athlete keeps playing his cards, or shall we say, pitch right, we will soon see him drafted for the big league.
