10/20/18 - Stetson commit. 6-foot-3, 205-pound, right-handed hitting catcher, lanky, athletic frame, strength throughout, stands out. Power approach at the plate, natural loft in swing, some swing and miss but given strength and power is a serious long ball threat. Defensively, moves exceptionally well behind the plate for size, strong hands/wrists receive well, arm works. One of the top catchers in the 2019 class with a legitimate power/defensive skill set.

08/15/18- Stetson recruit. Big, long, and athletic. Looks like a bear. Will be a strength-based player w body control. Hard contact yet inconsistent. Simple swing and has made significant strides in all facets of game so could see him develop into an above average hitter. He shows flashes with hard barrels; consistency will be the next step. 93 EV. Currently power over hit. Strength and leverage make him a dangerous extra-base threat now. Miles ahead of his peers defensively. Receives well, throws well, moves well. An all-around strong defensive player. 76 C; 1.90 pop. Two-way catchers are valuable and he has a power/defensive combo right now. The defensive game is very advanced and the power should stick with his physical tools. You can believe in his ability to develop the hit tool further but he is a very nice player as is. In a catcher-heavy 2019 class, he belongs near the top.

07/28/18- Stetson recruit, the 6-foot-2, 200 pound catcher has continued to fill out and add strength. The defensive skillset continues to show above average to plus. He has a strong and accurate arm, with pop times in the 1.85-1.95 range, they were consistently on the bag. He is flexible with strong wrists and shoulders that make him an above average receiver. Overall, he has the toolset to be an above average to plus defensive catcher. Offensively, he uses the strong lower half well to stay balanced throughout the swing. There is present bat speed and pull side power. Overall, was one of the top players on the day. 

05/20/18- Stetson recruit. At 6-foot-2, 200 pounds, he looks longer, leaner and stronger than that. May have had the best all around day from workout to game. Defensively, the catch and throw ability has really improved. Simple, clean, quick transfer and throws had carry ranging in the 1.9-1.96. Offensively, he has a very simple swing, staying in the lower half while clearing the backside and generating above average bat speed. The bat to ball skills have been there, but the power and strength have made big strides. Has leverage in the swing and stayed on the barrel both in BP and in the game. Looks to be a big riser heading into the summer.  

09/14/17- Committed to Stetson University.

08/20/17- Christian continues to improve each time I see him. Defensively he is solid and as he stops growing and gets used to his frame the feet will work quicker and everything will sync up and create better pop times. The hands work and should develop into a solid defensive catcher. Offensively, the bigger frame has translated into the swing. He has a wide base and the hit toll still plays, consistently making hard contact. Power continues to come and will have a chance to hit for above average power.

9/2/16- 6-foot-1, 175 pound catcher has projectable frame and a strong lower half. Defensively, he is above average receiver with a quick transfer and strong arm with pop times in the 2.0-2.1 range. Offensively he uses a strong lower half with a slightly uphill path through the zone for present strength and projects to have above average power.
