Scouting Report
7/21/20
6’1, 195-pound catcher continues to impress, improving his bat speed by 4 ticks since we saw him in January. Medium, athletic frame w/ some present lower half strength, upper body projection. Chance to be pretty physical. Offensively, hits w/ a straight on, very slightly crouched stance w/ quiet hands into a bit of a wrap-around leg kick to square and short hand load. Generates above average bat speed through the zone. Simple, repeatable swing w/ barrel that stays in the zone for a long time. Line drive oriented approach w/ ability to use all fields. Defensively, shows quick release w/ clean footwork and projectable carry to target arm strength w/ on the bag accuracy.

6-foot, 180-pound solid frame. In the 60-yard dash, he recorded a time of 7.88. At the plate, the right-handed hitter showed his power ability with an exit velocity of 89 mph. Began in an open stance with a smooth load, then used a short stride to start his swing. Has a flat swing plane and level finish. Behind the plate, displayed next level catching ability by boasting a 1.98-2.07 pop time. His best throw downs of the day reached a max velocity of 73 mph; had a fluid exchange and soft hands. A flexible setup. Had a compact arm action on his throws. Quite impressive in PBR showcase debut.

6-foot-1, 185-pound backstop was not the most highly-touted player coming into FG, but a quiet demeanor that carries over to his game. Strong, steady frame w/ room to add on. Poteet showcased some great receiving skills w/ soft hands and ability to get low strikes. Offensively, the right-handed hitter has a solid hit tool, consistently picking up his knocks throughout the summer, with some power upside to go with flashes of gap-to-gap power currently (Max Exit Velo: 96.5 mph via Trackman). Plenty of bat speed (Max: 71.1 mph | AVG: 66.74 via Blast) and on plane early and often (78% on plane efficiency). At the next level, looks to be a high-end defensive backstop, who can contribute offensively following the meat of the order. Committed to Vanderbilt at end of August.
