Colin continues to show why he is one of the more intriguing offensive catchers in Arizona's 2027 class. The 6-foot-3 backstop generated a 101 mph max exit velocity while consistently showing the ability to impact the baseball with leverage and strength. There is still additional offensive upside present as Colin continues to refine the swing and learn to stay behind the baseball more consistently. Defensively, he displayed quality actions behind the plate, posting sub 2.0 pop times while showing a fundamentally sound operation throughout the workout. The combination of size, offensive projection, and defensive reliability gives him an exciting long term profile.
