Name: Jake Sims
Position: C/1B
Grade: 2015
Height/Weight: 6-foot-1, 185 pounds
High School: Bishop Mac
Ranking: 17th in Ontario's 2015 class
Evaluation: Strong, sturdy frame at 6-foot-1, 185-pounds. Raw power from the left side. Generates good bat speed with some loft to swing. More power to pull side. Still somewhat raw behind plate. Arm strength is there, feet and hands need more reps. 2.12 pop time on scout day at Tournament 12. Reps and minor adjustments can turn Sims into power hitting left-handed catcher.
