5-foot-8, 140-pound right-handed hitting catcher. He ran a 7.31 sixty at the event. The skill set behind the dish is improving as he matures in age. He threw 67 mph down to second base with a pop time of 2.25. The receiving needs to continue to soften and working on securing the catch is imperative to his development. The feet and arm strength can continue to improve to quicken the transfer. The bat has an exit velocity of 83 mph as physical strength gains are warranted. The setup is even in base and he uses a pick up and put down of the front foot as the ball approaches the hitting zone. The bat path is flat too slightly uphill as he makes contact with the baseball. The hands work freely with the bat.
Exit Velocity- 83 mph
Catching Velocity-67 mph

Defensively, he starts in an even, relaxed stance, with the glove giving a good target in the middle of the chest. He showed the ability to receive well during the game. The throwing skills are good as the feet do a nice job of getting the hips in line with second base. The arm swing is short and showed a velocity of 66 MPH on his throws. The pop time ranged 2.3-2.4 seconds. He also ran a 7.34 sixty.
