6/20/17 - MD Top Prospect Games

Pelletreau is an interesting catching prospect who has some untapped potential to go along with an already built frame. At the plate, he starts narrow and open before coiling into his back hip with a slight leg kick. His momentum comes forward as he strides and his barrel is launched on level path through the zone. He gets some extension and was driving balls to the gaps. He already has some bat speed and should add more pop as he learns to stay in his legs more. Exit velocity of 88mph. Behind the plate, he is a quiet receiver and has a solid first step before unloading throws to the bases. His transfers are clean and he should be able to lower his 2.01 pop time. Moves well and showed ability to block the ball.
