Houston Russell: C/3B, (2021) Carl Albert, OK. 6-foot-2, 195-pound slim frame. In the box, the right-handed hitter had an exit velocity of 87 mph. Begins in a tall stance with a big load, then uses a quick stride to initiate his swing. Has quick bat speed, uphill swing plane and high finish. Found some barrels during his rounds. Up the middle approach. With a pop time of 1.89-2.00, showed off his quick feet and his ability to control the run game from behind the plate, he recorded a position velocity of 75 mph during throw downs; had a clean exchange, consistent hands and quick footwork. Athletic setup with above average flexibility. Showed a short arm action and a high ¾ slot. Recorded a time of 7.27 in the 60-yard dash.

A 6-foot-1, 175-pound framed catcher hits from the right side of the plate using a large stride to swing and attack baseball. Even stance to start, weight shifts over the back foot to load, hands stay neutral off the back shoulder. Weight travels with the large stride forward to the baseball, small hands and weight collapse at foot strike, long extension and path through the baseball. Middle of the field approach with bat drag. Showed some athleticism in swing, ball jumped at times, 84 mph bat-exit velocity. Registered a 7.18 60-yard dash. Flexibility and bend in primary stance to catch, added head bob and movement at catch. Quick feet and twitch to throw, works through the baseball and transfer well, good direction to 2nd base. Delivered throws around the bag at 1.90-1.96, ball travelling at 76 mph from the crouch, small hitch in separation. Late to block, dropped to one knee, lack to move side to side.
